Yeah. It especially irritates me that Ford does not allow the autostart to be disabled permanently. If you are not towing, you have to turn it off every time you crank the truck. I actually got a jumpered trailer plug to leave in the socket permanently, which did work as far as disabling it went, but then the trailer info screen came up on the dash at every crank instead of my desired fuel economy screen. So I had to press buttons every start anyway, which made the device worthless.

One of these days I'll go behind the dash and short the wires to the autostart disable button. That'll fix em!

They ought to let us save our preferences like every other tech device does.
