All I can do is laugh at this point. Apparently the IDS tools the dealers use to download and install calibrations can't download TracKey. Ford doesn't know why it is having this communication issue and have no ETA as to when it will be resolved.

But I guess Ford was afraid to let it out before it was all legal in the event of some bootleg TK loads.

That said I'm all for blaming 11ShelbyGT500
Maybe there's going to be enough material here for a Hitler video sequel.

**Update** Just got a call from the dealer and they are downloading a new update to their software. They asked me to drop the car and they're hoping they'll be able to flash it in the morning. We need a little more drama don't we?

Bummer... gonna give a courtesy call to my folks and see if they're getting the same errors. Hopefully we aren't charged more than the single hour of labor.
And yes, I'm taking notes for a Hitler sequel...

What's all the fuss about?
TracKey is alive and well in my BOSS 302. Dealer sent me a photo as well. Furius' white Boss was scheduled for TracKey installation today, but I'll let John confirm that his is active as well.
