Great video, thanks.

Next you need to test ACC in stop and go traffic to see if the truck can slow and stop without hitting the car in front of you.

Drive safe. ;)

Will give it a try next time I get the chance!

Thanks for sharing! I do think the headlights auto adjust. In the driver side rear, near the leaf spring, there is a ride height sensor. I never knew what it was for, maybe it’s the headlights?

Had no idea about the sensor!

As someone coming from a 2008 f150, what’s the point of lane assist when you have to keep your hands on the wheel?

There is a sensor on the front driver side as well. I’m told the sensors are for ABS

It's probably useful to various vehicle systems for heavy loads or trailers in addition to level kits.

At what trim level are auto-adjusting headlights included or offered? I see this one is a Platinum. I’d assume it’s not available on an XLT 302A?
Also, as the owner of a 2000 XLT with dim yellowish halogen lights, I can say the pure white beams projected in this video are pure nirvana.

I'm pretty confident that lane assist (and collision-assist features in general) have prevented untold accidents and deaths... Especially with distracted drivers given the plethora of techo-features and mobile devices in today's vehicles.

It's a lot less mentally draining to have the car do 95% of the driving. Great for long commutes or road trips.

I think lariat they are optional, standard on platinum and limited.
