Did ya know ?!?

Dropped the wife off to do some clothes shopping while I went down the street for more entertaining pursuits....
and when she got out I noticed in the reflection of the storefront window that the driving lights came on !

when she closed the door they went off ?!?!

?!? not sure what that's about, but cool !

On her Audi we noticed all kinds of odd behavior like that when we first got it.

I'm unsure what you're considering driving lights.

Every time you open a door the parking lights and fog lights activate for 15 or so secs. They go off after the elapsed time or the door is closed. Safety feature built into all the new fords.

This happens whether the truck is running or not, just no fog lights with the truck off.

I don't have auto mode on my XLT but always good to know what the Lariat/KR features are.
