I live within 2 hours of the time zone in tn and my phones and even one of my cars times change within a minute of passing the sign on the interstate. I worked on one side of tn and lived on the other so i crossed it 2-3 times per month for over a year
Yep, I've been to Vegas a number of times and when you're in the Laughlin area or even the Hoover dam area the phone switches back and forth as you hit the time zone area between AZ and NV.
That being said I had to change the clock in my truck the other day for daylight savings, but not the phone, or satellite receiver.
My $600 phone knows what time it is where ever it is at. My $60,000 truck does not. Still not a big deal but something was said somewhere about devils and details.
Does your 600 dollar phone have a low washer fluid sensor too?
My 2014 Subaru Outback had auto daylight savings time adjustment. My 2011 and 2013 KIA Optima's had auto daylight savings time adjustment. Both vehicles were around $30,000. Now KIA is offering 20 year, 200,000 mile power train warranty. Ford better watch out if KIA ever starts making pickup trucks.
I just asked my work mates if they had to change their clocks on a new Toyota Highlander and new Ford Edge and they had to manually change their clocks as well.
I am guessing if Ford had a list of things it was worried about, Kia making a pickup truck would be pretty darn close to the bottom. Somewhere near their concerns for a clock that automatically adjusts itself.
When shopping for your truck, was this a feature you looked for, were told it had, and then discovered it didn't?
Is there any reason to think that because Subaru and Kia had it, Ford would?
For your extra $20,000 spent, did you get things like a bigger engine, bigger tires, advanced safety features, the ability to tow 5,000+lbs, etc?
Your F150 is also missing the rear windshield wiper that you Subaru had, better add that to the list of complaints.
Instead of coming here, reading the thread, and writing some whiny complaint - save up that 5 minutes. Changing the time in your truck takes about 20 seconds. I'll round that to 30 seconds. Twice a year is 1 minute per year. 5 minutes is 5 years of changing your clock.

I guess I should have put a smiley face on my post.
