Best yet, they&#8217;re able to park themselves; all you\u00a0must\u00a0do is shift, brake and accelerate!<\/p>\n<p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div  class=\"wrc-column wrc-column-width-1 wrc-column-end\" ><\/p>\n<h3>180-Degree Camera<\/h3>\n<p>If it seems like the Explorer, Escape and Edge\u00a0have the ability to\u00a0see things that you might not be able to, that&#8217;s because they do.

ACC can help with this, as you can select the speed and distance you want to keep from the rest of the travelers. Plus, you&#8217;ll be able to slow down with the flow of traffic, greatly reducing hassle!<\/p>\n<p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div  class=\"wrc-column wrc-column-width-1\" ><\/p>\n<h3>Blind Spot Information System<\/h3>\n<p>Probably the most annoying part of the daily commute is needing to merge lanes and not being able to see who&#8217;s in your blind spot. Ford SUVs all come with a Blind Spot Information System that can alert you when vehicles are coming up where you can&#8217;t see them; in addition, Cross-Traffic Alert is built in, which can help you avoid oncoming traffic as you back out onto the road.<\/p>\n<p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div  class=\"wrc-column wrc-column-width-1 wrc-column-end\" ><\/p>\n<h3>FordPass\u2122<\/h3>\n<p>We use our phones more now than ever before, which is why it&#8217;s a no-brainer to use them to keep tabs on your Ford SUV. With\u00a0FordPass, you can start and unlock your vehicle, as well as track your location if you forgot where you parked. You can even check your fuel levels, making it that much easier to keep control of your model no matter where you are!<\/p>\n<p>\n<\/div><\/div><!-- .wrc-column-grid -->\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-default\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Read More: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sherwoodford.ca\/blog\/what-tech-features-come-with-the-2018-ford-f-150\/\">What Tech Features Come Available on the 2018 Ford F-150?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-default\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>Test drive a Ford SUV near Edmonton AB&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There&#8217;s so much more to love about the Ford Explorer, Escape and Edge models.
