And the technology in this thing is nuts. It practically drives itself. It watches the lines on the freeway and tries to keep me in them. And when I put it in cruise it lets me set a following distance and then it just keeps to that. Even if someone gets in between me and the next car it will adjust and I don't have to do anything. Seriously not far from autonomous vehicles.
I test drove an Outback with those same cruise control features recently. I thought they'd just be something fancy that I wouldn't really want/need, but I was blown away by how awesome it made the driving experience. We'll be getting a new vehicle sometime soon, and I reeeally want it to have that kind of cruise control.
... Today on the freeway I could let go and the truck would just bounce back and forth within my lane. No hands on the wheel....
This.... variable road condition quality makes me nervous re: expert systems that are using a view of the road. In the early days they proposed putting wires in the road bed to have an electromagnetic path for the wayfinding. Society couldn't afford to retrofit the interstate highway system.What happens when the striping gets faint?
Define bounce please.

wOOt! I want a ride! Beauty. Does it have the "flow through" console?I'm also really liking the 360˚ camera system. I don't know how it gets the side views, but it makes it so you can see what is basically a bird's eye view from directly above the truck. Awesome for tight spaces. This is of it parked in my driveway with the front-facing camera active on the left and the 360˚ bird's eye on the right. I can't wait to try that when I'm off road, trying to turn around and not hit bushes, rocks, etc. Works in forward and reverse.
When it starts to get too close to the line, it corrects the steering just a tiny bit and the truck starts moving back toward the middle of the lane. If uncorrected, it will eventually reach the other line and do the same.

The 360 degree camera view is intriguing. Is it at all useful at night? My backup cameras have been decent due to the backup light. How many lenses do you have to keep clean? 4?
Can you switch which camera is active instead of front? Can you turn on the display while you are moving?
