2021 XLT with the 360 whatever package with lane centering and adaptive cruise control seems to favor the right side of the lane. Sometimes it will stay in the center for a bit but then start to favor the right again. It’s done it since new and have almost 10k miles in it. Anyone else’s truck do that or is it a calibration issue? Thanks for the help.

They are all like that. I think it’s a safety buffer since the left lane could be oncoming traffic. It’s very annoying, especially since 18 wheelers like to crowd the left to the inside for some reason. I get my horn blown at me by most 18 wheelers I pass unless I fight the truck (and it is a fight) to get further to the center.

How are the 18 wheelers able to blow your horn? I didn't know that was possible.

That’s how close the truck gets to them. Or maybe I fat fingered my phone because it 5 degrees and my fingers are numb and I’m ready to go back south of I10 where I belong. One of those two.

Mine seems to favor whichever side of the lane has traffic adjacent!

Mine is pretty good at keeping it centered, I tend to drive toward the left of the lane for various reasons including habit from riding a motorcycle. So it's definitely not favoring the fog line on the right, otherwise; I would never use it.

I would say mine favors the left/center lane...but just slightly.

Mine favors the right and vigorously tries to 'exit right' whenever the right-side solid white line follows an exit ramp ...... gotta stay on yer toes to prevent that swerve when passing those.

Same boat - it's nice on a 2 way road, but can be a pain on the interstate because it constantly hugs the right stripe.

i think each truck is different
mine favors the center line WAY to close for my comfort...at least until i realized it was actually pretty centered

lane markings in my area drive it crazy with over zealous inputs to MOVE the truck.

we need a TRIM button to center or get it in a place that makes us as the driver more comfy for the road conditions and other drivers.

adjustable trim would be awesome lol
I find mine to be very ping pongy, over corrects and under corrects consistently

while my MachE is still a 1000x better than my F150, I have come to find that keeping the windshield in front of the camera squeaky clean makes a huge difference. Several road trips the “ping pong” has gotten really bad, so I pit stop and clean the windshield (without turning off the truck, so no software reboot) and lane holding gets much steadier.
