Clock adjustment

I have a 2016 f250. Did anyone have an issue with the clock adjusting on DST?
I have hit Adjust clock to GPS time and it will not change. I Know, I know, I can do it manually, but why have an option if it does not work.
I have tried during a trip guidance and no luck. Dealer never heard of the issue. Bring it in. Yea no, I will just do it manually. Technology go figure?

This option works automatically on my Harley Davidson and changes when crossing time zones.

GPS time has not worked correctly for me during daylight savings time in my '15 F350. It does not seem to follow daylight savings. I have not researched GPS specifications but I would guess they are intentionally invariant so GPS devices do not get "confused" if DST rules change in the future.
I just hit the "set to GPS time" button, then add an hour.

Yes That is what it must be. I changed the time and then hit the gps time. It changes it back. GPS knows if you are in DST. Why can't Ford?

Another gripe is the truck apps or should I say App. Along with gauge display only showing Trans Temp. A 50,000 dollar truck should have many more options such as Voltage and MPH
