These are starting to roll out (albeit slow AF) via OTA updates....seems like more and more folks are posting they got it overnight. Unfortunately I havent got it yet
Honest question, does the vehicle have to be parked outside. Within satellite signal to get the OTA update? I leave mine in the garage and it gets no Wi-Fi or satellite signal.

I believe it needs to be connected to your home wifi.

Is there anything I can look at on Sync that tells me the actual version? SA says they have to hook it up to the FDRS machine/analyzer to tell.
Yes...2 ways from the infotainment screen. 1) Go to Setting - More Settings - About…your vehicle info will be listed there or 2) You could click Apps - Ford Pass - Vehicle Info…find truck info there.

I have auto updates turned on, but my truck isn’t connected to my home Wi-Fi. My last update showing in FordPass is 3.5.2. Is this odd? Will I not receive the OTA update if it’s not connected to Wi-Fi?

According to the folks over on the Gen14 forums it is actually being pushed out just over cellular / AT&T (even if you are connected to wifi it will still only use cellular). I haven't been connected to wifi and have gotten all updates OTA less the recent 3.5.3 that has just started to get rolled out (again after a couple month pause).

Yes 2021s get this update.
