Thanks for all the feedback on this! I'm going to see if there is an aftermarket solution that is likely better and cheaper than FoMoCo's. Or, I'll just go without, since I tend to only keep vehicles for a couple years and the likelihood of issues in that time period is neglible.
So, I can get over that. What I can't get over is something I cannot readily fix, which is the fact that the LED on the key FOB doesn't light up green (or red) when I remote start the truck... WTF?!?! Presumably, this is just another "chip-shortage" cutback, but I really liked the feedback of whether my truck actually started!!! Does anyone know if that's across the board, or (again) did I just get the one they forgot to install that on?
Does anyone know if there is (or will be soon) a solution for any of the chip shortage cutbacks? I like 1) the hands-free liftgage, 2) the second row one-touch windows, 3) the auto start-stop (made me feel as if I was getting better mileage), 4) remote start feedback LED light on the key FOB. Without these, I know my Expy will be labeled a "covid vehicle", but beyond that, I really appreciated those functions.
