Is it possible to get the blue GT theme without the GT start screen?

Hey guys, I just bought my F-150, brand new Platinum. Will the Forscan do anything for my rig? I know I'd like to stop the horn from beeping when I lock it up...

Try sport mode if you have that option. It will increase your throttle response. Sounds like you're in economy mode.

Yes I'm in normal mode driving 75mph with the ACC on and want to speed up quickly before the semi in the right lane wants to cut me off so he can pass the semi in front of him doing 68mph that's a 1/4 mph below his speed..

This seems to take a major effort on the pedal to have happen,, unlike the gentle pressure the 2002 took..

It's to the point that using my left thumb is faster, easier..

I do enjoy the sport mode when needed but in this case prefer normal..

Problem is poking and hoping with Forscan isn't a good way of looking for stuff that involves actually driving to test.

It is designed for the smaller 6" sync screen, however it works on the 8"... the lines on the top bar are slightly off and on the home screen the nav street bar comes over too far to the right... but here are some pictures...
