Hello,  I am just curious if anyone has been using bluecruise and how you like it.  Plusses? minuses?  I know it doesn't work with lane markings obscured.  Does yours work at night?   Thanks.

I have bluecruise on my Mach-E.  It works well for the most part for me.  I know a few complain about it hugging one side of the lane or the other.  Mine tracks pretty much in the middle most of the time.  I have noticed that it kicks off when driving into the sun or if there are a lot of shadows.

I would have considered BlueCruise on the Lariat I just ordered but nobody could provide me with which roads/highways would be supported in my region (Ottawa, Canada)

Thanks for the info. I am excited to get my truck and make some road trips to see how it does.  Using optics I can see how road glare could confuse it. as well as shadows.

So that would be interesting to know as well.  I did a search and Ford Canada says it has extensive coverage including in some national parks but could find no details either.  I live in the Detroit metro area and before the Covid would cross over occasionally and would love to be able to bluecruise to Toronto when things opened up.

With snow on the ground covering highways and roads in my region for a better part of 3 months - that's another reason I was deterred from ordering it...

 

I think autonomous driving is still very much in the early adopters and experimental phases. I think road infrastructure will also need to improve before it becomes a truly useful every day feature.
