Software Updates
As @rugedraw says in post 4987 running the truck is part of the key to getting updates. While I have updates scheduled daily, my experience suggests that many updates come through while you are driving.

Correct. Once an OTA that does not require the vehicle to be inhibited gets queued and when the files are downloaded, they will sit there until you start the truck. You don't even have to drive it......just starting it will trigger the activation process for it to install. I have PTS screenshots of my own 4.2.3 installing in real time yesterday posted here and described the process to get the files to start installing:

Now here's hoping 4.2.2 comes tomorrow to keep up with everyone else's rapid schedule once they start.
Yeah it's amazing how it's feast or famine with these updates. I finally got 3.5.3 on 4/23, then 3.5.4 on 4/28, then 4.2.1 yesterday on 5/1. All winter nothing, then three in 8 days. Maybe even less. Since I did not drive my truck all weekend, 4.2.1 may have been sitting there for a few days.
