speed locked
2017 Super Duty, thought I read a thread back at the beginning of the year that Ford speed locks the computer to the max speed rating of the tires.
If I purchase tires with a lower max speed rating than the OEM tires, can I reset the locked speed to that of the lower speed?
... or do I need to have a Ford service center do that?

Where can I read up on MyKey?
What do you mean by "If equipped"? ... is this associated with the Ford Telematics build option?

MyKey is more of a "teenager" function within the truck "apps". It allows you to program one of the keys to limit top speed, radio on only when seat belt fastened, etc. The other key is the "admin" key (I don't think it matters which key). I said "if equipped" because I don't know if it is standard across the trim levels or not.

The 2017 Super Duty sales brochure suggests MyKey is a standard feature across models and trim levels.

It locks top speed to 80. It can only be unlocked with second remote.
Pro tip: Don't mess around with this feature on a long, boring Interstate drive.
Otherwise, you'll have to wait until you get home to to unlock the setting.
