Whats the App called?

@BigBlue its the "Ford Remote Access" app for the iphone or android platforms. it needs a head end unit in the truck. not sure the particular name for that though.

What it end up running?

$699 installed. I found a slightly lower price but the guy seemed a little shady and wouldn't provide any upfront info on the system, so I went through my local dealer, who outsources it to a local installer.

It has an annual fee as well, thats $52/year.

Let's play "what was in rookie's dif fluid!"

It's supposed to be foamy and slushy right?

That's not bad at all. Maybe I'll shop a few of the local Ford dealers to see what they want.

The slush is just temperature responsive friction modifier.

quick opinion question. I'm contemplating grabbing a cover for the truck bed for the snowball.

Does getting one make sense to you? (time and cost are not a factor i have that covered)

I'm just wondering if anyone ran without one and would have preferred to have had one...
or didn't care and the snow wasn't a nuisance.

I considered removing mine, but was told it was nice to have keeping the snow out of the bed. Its cold enough grabbing things, no need to have to deal with them being frozen together and covered in snow

I have the Roll-x and water got down in it and I could not lock it on the sides. It literally flew off on the highway but luckily my chains mod held it. Put another one in the middle to my air tank.
