I am confused. I have ordered an F-150 and ordered their BLIS w/Cross Traffic Alert. I wanted their BLIS w/Cross Traffic Alert and Trailer Tow, but it was not available on the F-150 platform, I would have had to get the F-250 at minimum.
The truck is now "In Production" on their tracking website, so I can download the window sticker. The window sticker lists "BLIS w/Trailer Tow Monitoring."
Does that mean I have the BLIS w/Cross Traffic Alert and Trailer Tow, or does that mean I have BLIS w/Cross Traffic Alert that turns itself off when towing?
Ford does not make this easy.
I am pretty sure that you have everything, meaning BLIS that works with the trailer plus cross traffic monitoring in parking spots. I have a 2016 with F-150 with BLIS w/Cross Traffic Alert and Max Trailer Tow. My understanding is that they enhanced what I have by enabling it watch for traffic beside the trailer in addition to just beside the truck. I don't believe that they took anything away. The cross traffic monitoring is pretty handy when backing out of a parking spot. My BLIS gets turned off when I am pulling a trailer since it does not warn of things beside the trailer and they don't want to mislead me.
