This might be a stupid question but does the truck have to be on to receive updates? My driveway is 5 feet from my modem overnight.

No, your truck

No, your truck has modem that stays connected to ford. You just have to enable ota updates in the menu settings. You can also schedule when updates will be applied, since you cannot use your truck during the update whatsoever.

Very cool! Thanks for posting pics @BreadPitt86!

Also, before anyone asks, please remember that only Sync4 equipped vehicles can receive OTA updates so us 22-24MY Maverick owners will not be seeing this update on our vehicles.

None for mine yet. I have the 25 eco boost and last OTA update was a month back. It’s set for auto updates. Does it seem to improve any features?

None that you would notice. It’s more for PCM diagnostics than anything.

Do you mean menu settings in the App or on the vehicle? I have a 2024 ECO so I'm not sure if I would even get this update, but since I bought the truck used in May, I don't think I have received any OTA updates.

OTA updates are enabled thru the onscreen settings/software updates tab. You need a 25 model with sync-4 to be able to receive ota’s…

Onscreen in vehicle, once updated it will show you a summary of the update in FordPass.

Ok thanks. I thought you had to be on wifi.
ETA: info shared in post below that OTA updates only available over the private ATT connection Ford uses.

Probably faster to get the download part of the process.
Unless far enough away the WiFi is so bad the AT&T would be just as fast.
Then again - if no AT&T signal, gotta use what ya got.
