It is my biggest gripe on my 23. $60K and they want me to pay for a paper copy. The dealer was not happy when I told them I was walking, they found a manual for me. Your wife cannot look up items on the touch screen while you are driving.

Owners manual? He'll that cost ford money to put in the fancy zipped case. You're lucky you got a spare tire. My wife's 22 Edge ST line didn't come with a pare tire, just some dumb *** inflator with green slime in it. Then ypu supposedly have to replace that every three yrs. I would of walked out from the deal but she absolutely loves that car.

Well, what Ford winches up under the bed looks like a spare tire, and might perform like one under gentle conditions, it really is not a true spare. It has minimal tread, light (and weak) construction, and warning labels on it.

It's definitely a temporary spare. I keep looking for a factory rim that I can mount a regular tire on. But I also wonder about the winch and cable system, will it support the weight of a full size tire.

I have the spare that my F150 was delivered with an it's a 245-70-17 that weighs in around 65 pounds, has full deep treads. It is marked limited use on the sidewall but full size and weight. Just had it down to check psi and hose the wheel and winch with HD metal protectant. My F150 was ordered by me and is a 2017 XL. KM

My '17 comes with a full sized spare up there..thx for reminding me, I haven't checked "the air" in it for a few years.. I'll do it today..A "flat spare" isn't much good when you need one👍🫣

Everything is technology these days! Thankfully, they still make manuals to print, order, and download! I cannot tell you how many times my sales floor have had customers searching everywhere in their new trucks to find the manual! But the manual is pretty hefty!

Most do not like the manual that is on their screen. But it does allow you to search what you are looking for as well as videos on how to.

Are we going to start seeing folks offloading their printed copies in the sales forums now? LOL
