I have 1.2 on my platinum along with Parking assist. It required a 2021 ipma with 2023 software. It will be seen what ford does in the future to demand the 600.00 subscription in the future. It's true as snakebitten said about revisions adding better code. With my 2016 lane centering used only the windshield camera and is very gimmicky. With my 2022 lane centering uses all my sensors. Windshield, mirror, the prox censors on each corner, the most outside bumper sensors. What hammaman said about same code is verifiable untrue. The code between windows 10 and windows 11 is massively different as was clear back to windows 3. Each version builds upon each other. I'm not saying that every line of code between bc 1.0 and 1.2 is completely different. Each version builds upon prior versions.
In this life I'm a developer for aircraft autopilot systems in experimental aircraft. Accuracy is in my wheel house. I'm pretty versed in the sensors ford uses.
I'm impressed with how ford pulled all the software, cameras and sensors together to produce a confident inspiring experience.
There is room for improvement tho. Like when passing an exit ramp. If the lines on the right break the blue cruise pauses. Not every time but often. It does resume when passed. I like how the system works when there is merging traffic. Like when someone on an entrance ramp pushes into your lane. I feel the system has that vehicle in its sight and is anticipating the bone head move.
Gone are the days when my truck bounces from side to side. I'm locked into the center of the lane and during curves the truck navigates smoothly. Lane changing is something that unless you experience it first hand you can't understand how advantageous that is in the whole scope of hands free mode.
