I wanted to know if @Yellow Buddy was in the program or not

Only EAP members are getting this at the moment, so he must be.

Will this have any benefit for my 2024 XLT Lane Keeping Ping Pong system?

Does your XLT have Bluecruise? Does it even have lane centering?

I thought the 24 XLT didn't come with BC or lane centering. If I'm correct you don't have any active lane centering. What you are feeling is the lane departure (called lane keeping) alerting you that you are failing to maintain your lane. That is an alert system, not an active driver aid.

OK, very strange.
24 flash lists intelligent adaptive cruise but the 2024 xlt does not, neither list lane centering (at least on the webpage). In the 22s and 23s you cannot have lane centering without adaptive cruise, aka no lane centering in 24 XLT.

However it DOES list Bluecruise 1.2 availabe for the XLT and I don't see any possible way they could give bluecruise without adaptive cruise. On another note it does NOT list the XLT under models that have Bluecruise

Does yours have adaptive cruise?

Just got BC 1.4 on 1/28. MY22 and an EAP member.

So far, so good! I’ve definitely noticed less ping-pong action in the lane, but also full hands-free driving seems to be less available on my normal route. I’ll keep testing this to see if it was just a fluke or a true change. The lane change feature works really well.

Good points, it's not listed in the general search for XLT as a base feature, I wonder if it's optionable?

I did a local inventory search, for any trucks with Blue Cruise, an XLT came up, but looking at the sticker, it does not mention blue cruise or a option upgrade on the truck, looks like vehicle finder gives bad results ...... no surprise @Ford Motor Company

BC 1.2 is listed under interior features.

@Ford Motor Company (Not-AI Brian ) , can you offer any clarity as to if the 2024 XLT is supposed to have Bluecruise

Looks like it could be ordered as an option, but that's based on the forward thinking of dealers spec out builds they ~think~ they can sell.

It'll be nice if MoCo gets' back to custom special ordering for folks who want the right mix of options.

I took a look at the build sheets and I could not find BC listed as either standard or optional equipment for the XLT.

I think the ICE 24 F-150 recieved BC across the line and I think @Ford Motor Company made a mistake on the website.
