Alright, so I know it has been a while but I finally was able to get the right sensor and replace it. I did end up getting a Bosch from Auto Zone for way cheaper than what Ford was selling their Motorcraft one for. After replacing it I made sure everything was solid and then went ahead and erased the code, but unfortunately code P0059 still pops up after driving the car for a while. Any suggestions?

The reason is I don't see it being mentioned in your posts and Bank 2 Sensor 1 is very specific.
Also, check to make sure the wire harness on the car side is not kinked or damaged.
Did you buy a ready-to-use O2 Ssensor with the wire harness plug already on it, or did you buy a universal one that required the use of the old wire harness from your sensor?
The reason is that I've found the universal ones sometimes have a too wide of a spec on their resistance which will cause a code to be thrown. The ones with the right harness already installed are built to a much tighter spec and not likely to throw a code.
