I actually tried this the first time today. I swerved outside the lanes (both left and right) multiple times and had to put my hands on the steering wheel every 15 seconds.
Unless I'm doing something wrong I didn't see any benefit to it.

It's supposed to come with 3 years so best contact them on that one.
I believe only 22's came with 3 years of free BC, our 21's only got 1 year free. Unless I am mistaken on this.

You obviously weren't in blue cruise mode. Lane centering mode requires hands on the wheel or you get a warning and since you said it swerved out of lane, you either had really poor striping on the highway or you did not have lane assist engaged. Your info says Idaho so I believe the only highways with Blue Cruise mapping would be the interstates.

Only '21 Job 1 trucks didn't get the 3 years of BlueCruise. The cost of the option for '21 Job 2 and later was $600 more, so the subscription cost was already included for them.

So it only works on interstates? Ok no, I was not on a freeway, so I guess it wasn't on. Thanks for the detail.

Once you witness your instrument panel switch to BLUECRUISE, you won't ever wonder again if you are in Bluecruise mode.
It's not Graphically subtle, let's just say. :)

No. It only works on mapped roads. Most/all interstates are mapped, but there are many other non-interstate roads mapped as well. Here's the map of BlueCruise-enabled roads:

https://www.ford.com/technology/bluecruise/

Looks like in Idaho, most of the mapped roads are still just the interstates. But up near Spokane, it looks like there's a section of US 395 that's Bluecruise-enabled. And it looks like there's a section of US 20 near Idaho Falls that's enabled as well. Ford started with the Interstates, and is continually expanding the network of mapped routes, so this map changes over time.

I'll re-up. I like hands-free driving. My location and driving habits don't call for hands-free often. I'm sure I'll enjoy 1.2, but 1.0 is fine with me.
