Co-Pilot360 question.

[Big_T]

I keep seeing this but I can't find the reference anywhere on the Ford configurator. I'm considering bumping my order from an XL to an XLT _just_ for the power mirrors but if Co-Pilot will give me the mirrors then it is totally worth it for me. I had ordered the full size spare anyway. Can anyone confirm that 360 gives pwr mirrors on the XL?

I can confirm it. I have confirmed here a few times in the past few months that my XL ordered with copilot 360 shows power mirrors on the order. But some still don't believe.

I believe. I will contact my dealer (wow that sounds sketch) this evening to see if I can make the change. Thank you for sharing the info.

So what exactly do you get with the XLT optioned 360- Bliss- Lane control- reverse camera cross traffic alert, anything else ?

Seems like the Blind spot especially with cross traffic would be useful. My 2010 Ford Escape has blind spot mirrors so it will be interesting to adjust to just trusting a system vs your own vision lol.

And take the cost of the full size spare tire right off the cost of the copilot 360 (if you're getting a hybrid).

I actively sought out the co-pilot system! I'm 74 and rear-ended a vehicle at 45 mph a couple years ago, while thank God no one was hurt, it put a damper on an otherwise nice Florida vacation! Don't care much for adaptive cruise, I think it slows your car down too far behind other vehicles, but it can come in handy on long Interstate highway drives! Lane keep assist can be disconcerting at first, both my wife and I agree on that, but you do get used to it!!

That's it, except you also get a full size spare tire if ordering a hybrid. (and it allows you to order the sliding rear window if ordering an XL)

I need all the help I can get driving in South Florida so I will opt-in for every safety feature possible, I drive a truck with no safety features and have weekly close calls, eventually, my luck has to run out. Believe me when I tell you that people here drive like Total Shi* and what's worst is they don't even care. Distracted drivers (texting, selfies, taking photos of everything), Road Rage (crazy insane hazardous driving, Angry Aggressive Truck Drivers), 50cc Scooters on the highway, Accidents at all hours of the day or night. I think you get my drift.

As my pastor always says lookie lookie listen listen
These tools and sensors are wonderful way to keep up with what is around you.

Now that being said I believe these things make good drivers in to not so good drivers.
I noticed after ditching my 2019 Taco and driving my wifes 2018 Subway with eyesight, that made me more of distracted driver and began to rely on these sensors to do what I am supposed to do with my eyes and feet.

After the taco driving the 07 ranger 5 speed with manual windows to boot. The only sensor this thing has, is a check engine sensor and the passenger seat for the airbag. Bare bones this thing has made me a better driver all over again. It just reminded me of how much attention the road needs. And geeze I am old and it's like my first car again. hello 87.

I did not add this 360 feature not due to cost but to make sure I assume nothing when I drive.
Relying on technology is good but to do it all the time is a fool's errand.

+ out all the car manufacturers Ford will be the first with ADAS 5 tesla can go suck boot. GM will outsource as they normally do and be behind the curve as usual.
- the Stingray as that has its own team and plant that they are made in independent of GM's foolishness.

Have others noticed their driving skills or habits get worse with these tools? As M.A.C. point is a necessity.

A friend of mine was driving his daughters car with lane keep assist. The said he didn't like it because the alarm was continually going off..........then he realized, "maybe I do need lane keep assist"

This is so true. Whether some people know it or not, they drift over and it gives me anxiety as I am about to pass them up. I have to slow down and wait for them to correct or the lane markers to alert them. I just assume they're tired or drunk. Whatever the reason is, lane keep assist makes too much sense not to have.

I can attest to S. Florida traffic. I lived there 18 years, and each time I visit my dad, I'm always shocked by the aggressive driving and speeding on I-95. It takes me a moment to adjust to 90mph being the normal cruising speed.

I just wanted to throw a quick thanks out to everyone for the info assist. Waiting to hear back from my dealer to confirm the changes now. I really appreciate the help.

Same experience on my ‘19 BMW. It claims that it “vibrates the steering wheel” when it detects you’re going out of your lane but I’ve tried so many times to get it to do that and it never does. I even set the vibration strength to ”strong” and warning to “early.” It’s either completely worthless or faulty on my vehicle, but everything checks out according to the dealer.

On a side note, maybe this is why you never see BMWs signaling, they’re all waiting for lane departure to come on! Or maybe they do it to not piss off the average driver of their cars.

I did get CP360 on my Maverick though, for blind spot and rear cross traffic alert. I just dont have super high hopes for lane keep but we’ll see.

Reverse cameras have been federally mandated since 2018, so you get that on every new car including base XL. But like someone else said otherwise that’s it for the XLT. Emergency braking, auto high beams are standard even on XL so you don’t need 360 for it, but good to know/remember you have them.

Edit: Lane keeping systems are only on CP360.

Lane keep assist is not standard
