Autonomous Driving / Self-Driving on 2027 Scout EV?

I can tell you my ACC on my F250 in all practical purposes can not be turned off - that is to say, I can tell it to turn off - but if the system is not working, it disables all cruise control. That is really annoying if the sensor gets mud on it.

On the MachE and F150 (I would assume F250 is the same, it's all Sync3/4) you can switch from adaptive cruise to standard cruise in the center screen under driver assistance. Then the switch on the wheel will toggle standard cruise control on and off. I've had to do this when the radar got flooded in a bad storm.

I think they are going to have to include some form of self driving. A lot of current EV owners have had this for some time and many will be expecting this for roadtrips etc. Seems like the Traveller would have to have this.

Given that Rivian software seems hinted at, they should at least adopt that. While its not the best maybe by 2027 it could be a lot better.

I currently drive a Tesla Y and it has the basic "AutoPilot". This includes adaptive cruise control and will actively steer the vehicle to keep it centered in its current lane even on curves. I didn't think I would use the steering thing very much, but on long trips it has been great! Each time I've used it on long trips, I find that I arrive less drained from the long drive. I would love to see that capability on the Scout - not just a correction if you start to drift into an adjoining lane.
