2016 F-150 Backup Assist
I got an invitation from FoMoCo to test drive a 2016 F-150 with back up assist feature.

Backing up a trailer can be tricky. The truck's front wheels have to be turned the opposite direction the customer wants the trailer to go. Turn too hard and the trailer can hit the vehicle, or jackknife. Whether working alone or with a spotter, backing up a trailer can be a tension-filled ordeal.
Available Pro Trailer Backup Assist helps take the frustration out of backing up. It works by letting the customer steer the trailer with a control **** while the truck steers its wheels and limits vehicle speed.

Everyone who signed up for a 2015 drive, even if you didn't do one, got an invite. Even if there are no locations in your state... Poor marketing.
