My mom's Lincoln MKX has adaptive cruise control and I'm not a fan. It follows way too far from the car in front, and it slows down way far behind a slow moving car before you can change lanes. If it's going to be an option on the new KR F-150's I'll probably pass on it. I wouldn't want autonomous technology failing causing someone to be injured or killed haunting my conscience. I guess I'm old school for my age lol.
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.

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.

Great.....now the interior will heat up even more on those hot sunny days. Hopefully the HVAC has been improved
All I know dimension wise is the windshield has been pushed forward for more take making better visibility and aerodynamics.

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.

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.
