Maybe just different tech then. With the E you can set the distance you want it to follow.
I'm betting optional on Lariat standard on plat and KR but we still know so little it's pointless to assume.
Like I said I too have a limit which is where we are now tech wise. Anything more and I'll start to stray.

All I know dimension wise is the windshield has been pushed forward for more take making better visibility and aerodynamics.

The windows have been made 4 inches larger and the belt line has been dropped 2 inches. The seats have been pushed outward 1 inch making the centre console another inch wider because it isn't big enough lol.

Only other dimension change I know of is the lip around the bed has been dropped an inch for better accessibility.

I can tell there's a dozen more but not that have been formally released.

We've got it on our '14 Flex and I love it. You can adjust the gap and it'll even stop if the car in front of you does. If you don't like it you can disable it through the dash screen.

Great.....now the interior will heat up even more on those hot sunny days. Hopefully the HVAC has been improved

I wouldn't worry too much
I'm still waiting for those flying cars we were all supposed to have by the 21st century.

It's always that old "the way technology is moving.." line, but it never usually pans out that way.


* the one funny thing in that poster is the 'wris****ch tv' though - funny enough we have watches 100x more advanced than that now, yet the other stuff didn't pan out *

v8s on the other hand, they could be a thing of the past in another 15 years.
~90 million barrels of oil used per day worldwide, and obviously increasing exponentially, is a pretty staggering number to think about.

It's definitely awesome watching the progression of automobiles in general though.

Don't get me wrong I'm all for progression. Economy, engines, power train, performance, capability, comfort, etc etc.
What I'm not for is autonomous beyond what we have now. I can see where you're coming from with the flying cars line but unlike flying cars, we actually have 100% self driving vehicles, google, ford, and more all have completely driver free cars and the technology is there and relatively simple, just not yet accessible for the whole industry, only parts.

It's the parking brake. The fusion has the same push/pull lever/button

The Ford fusion has the same park button
