Default Question on BLIS

I am confused. I have ordered an F-150 and ordered their BLIS w/Cross Traffic Alert. I wanted their BLIS w/Cross Traffic Alert and Trailer Tow, but it was not available on the F-150 platform, I would have had to get the F-250 at minimum.

The truck is now "In Production" on their tracking website, so I can download the window sticker. The window sticker lists "BLIS w/Trailer Tow Monitoring."

Does that mean I have the BLIS w/Cross Traffic Alert and Trailer Tow, or does that mean I have BLIS w/Cross Traffic Alert that turns itself off when towing?

Ford does not make this easy.

The 2015's bliss disables when a trailer is hooked up. It is my understanding that it now works with a trailer attached. Don't believe it can be ordered one way or the other. If you ordered bliss w/tow package you should have the latest version which includes bliss with the trailer hooked up. Blind spot will work with the trailer, not sure about cross traffic.

I think that makes sense...

Might have something to do with the subtle design changes to the17 models. The BLIS radar is in the tail lights. Did Ford make changes to them for 17, and do they look like the Superduty ones?
