Hey guys, I have 2013 FX4 Ecoboost and I'm at a drive in movie theater as I type this. This is the first time I've been to a drive in (not that common in Baltimore) and I have to keep the radio on for the movie sound. Well I got out of the truck and shut the door, opened the windows and was enjoying the movie when about 20-30 minutes went by and my radio shut off and gave me the "power saver mode" warning and told me to shut off the radio or start the engine. Since I need the radio but don't want to continuously start the engine with people all around me, is there any way to keep the radio on while not having it warn me about power saver mode every 30 mins? Sorry, my manual is at home because I was reading it, otherwise I'd be looking this up myself. Thanks for any help!!!!

 

No (way) other than to keep the vehicle running.

The best drive in advice I ever received was that if you reach around her back, the clasp pinches together and then releases.

 

Lmfao priceless

 

Silent movie?

 

That seems like a crappy design for a drive in, who can run the battery for 1.5 hours+ at a time with out starting the car?

 

The last 3 drive-ins I went to used RF in the FM radio band; not wired speakers. Some people bring a portable radio.

 

Exact same situation 2 weeks ago. First time at the drive in with my 2013. Besides now looking into a kill switch for the dome lights I'll be taking a battery powered radio next time. I got about an hour before my radio turned off. Let the truck run for ten minutes and repeat hourly sadly.

 

Let's be honest here. Who still goes to a drive in? And how many new ones are opening in the country every year?

Exactly.

 

It's not just the drive in issue. I'm totally pissed I can't use my radio at the lake or anywhere else I want to drop the tailgate play the radio and have a few cold ones. I can't even listen to it while washing it in my yard. It is the only disappointment with my new truck. And it sucks bad.
