That would be awesome, especially if by chance Ford added cruise control. Or even make Co-pilot standard across the trim lines. Either way Co-Pilot is not critical for me since I've never owned a vehicle with BLIS or Lane Keep. I drove a Jeep Compass as a service loaner. It had lane keep and scared the crap out of me. I turned it off as quick as I could. For cost-effectiveness I couldn't justify the extra markup just to go to the xlt. Even as an Excel model I thought it was fairly well equipped. I mean I do plan on putting CAL-TREND "Leather"(probably imitation leather) seat covers. Never had heated seats, so not missing it.
I hope they don't add co-pilot. So many horror stories. Not just from Ford but other manufacturers. I'm happy I had the option of not getting it! Every Maverick still has emergency breaking. That's good enough for me.
what's wrong with the co-pilot?
Make sure to get the CoPilot 360 so you get the power mirrors. One can add Cruise Control without much cost by changing the steering wheel switches and programming modules. Also easy to add a power tail gate lock.
agree, nothing wrong with Co-Pilot, have to push the button on the turn signal lever to engage it.
That's a bit of a red flag, imo. If last year has taught us anything, it's that you want an informed dealer. Find one that has their shit together so that you know your order goes in correctly in the first few minutes of the system going live.
Originally I wanted an XL hybrid for the cost but quickly jumped to the XLT primarily for the power side view mirrors and a few other goodies. My wife will jump in the vehicle to run errands and adjusting the mirrors would be a PITA for her.
