There would be minimal cost to add this feature. The truck already has the sensors in the steering, its a matter of programming, which is already basically done because other ford models with my ford touch already have it. Its just a matter of inserting the code into the new update. Im guessing thats why the representative at Ford said its in the new update. Apparently they feel its worth adding too and if it cost them a lot of money to do so.. it wouldn't have been added. Im surprised your going out of your way repeatedly to express your opinion on something that was never even asked in the title of the post. Especially when you added a back up cam yourself... smh... look in the mirror bud.
Sure, they will probably add it as the super crew is the new SUV. I've been on here for years and it has gone from a truck forum to MPGs and why I'm missing this creature comfort!
My truck is a bare bones, get the job done type of truck. Carpet? Nope! Eco? Nope! There has been a sway in the market since the Eco came out that has steered SUV consumers to the F150 and with it their SUV expectations out of a truck.
Like I said, enjoy staring at your curvy lines but I have no need for them.

Wasn't referencing his post but that's always possible. I know I can race down urban roads in a 47 ft rig without such devices. People become to complacent on these technologies and instead of being alert and paying attention to driving they expect the nannies to do their work!

Exactly CapnBly... he's missing the point and just voicing his opinion when opinion was not even a part of this thread.
RES4CUE.. I did read your post about it being for your trailer... guess what.. its still a LUXURY... a bell or whistle that you ADDED to your "bare bones truck" to make your life easier. its not a necessity. For you to do that and stick your nose in this thread is beyond me. Look up the word hypocrite.

If you bothered to read my post about me adding a camera it was solely to hook up my trailers by myself and not need curvy lines to tell me where I may go.

Your truck lacks features, we get it...the features don't make the man/woman.
As far as your disdain for curvy lines, carpet, fuel economy, and all things F150 circa 2011+ deserves it's own thread, not the MFT update post.

I do a lot of reading on here, not too many replies for my job, but for some reason you are one of the few guys that always seems to always no more, and just have to knock someones simple post, just as this one. Bottom line is no its not needed, but many other perks in a 50k truck isn`t either. but we dont need someone to sound like a know it all politician either, it all comes down to personal preference just as your mods. not trying to cause a war, but come on.
I don't know it all and I did say I was blunt and asked a question and still have yet to receive an answer other than because I want it. That's fine, I was commenting on the fact that I think it's not a very useful thing but conceded that I was in the minority when 4 out of 5 posters said they would like it.
All this is my personal opinion and when people ask me questions in a response I will respond back.
I get the perks like heated and cooled seats, navigation, sync, deployable side steps but lines that turn with the steering wheel???
Still curious as to the purpose and why one would be so excited about this feature. Now if they said they were going to allow apps or something then that would be something to get excited about.

It's a luxury but it's a useful luxury whereas the curving lines aren't. Please explain how lines curving on your screen with your wheel is useful.
I know what hypocrisy is and that is your opinion, oops sticking your nose in here with your opinions......

There's so much fail in this post bro, seriously. Your truck lacks features, we get it...the features don't make the man/woman. As far as your disdain for curvy lines, carpet, fuel economy, and all things F150 circa 2011+ deserves it's own thread, not the MFT update post. peas, b
Using "bro", "fail", and whatever "peas" is (maybe you were trying to type piece or maybe you meant the little green vegetable pea's) doesn't even warrant a serious response.
