1) Has anyone got the ACC to go down to ZERO yet? This San Fran traffic drives me nuts when the ACC kicks off at 12MPH every 30 seconds. I would pay nicely if someone wants to figure out how to make the ACC run to zero and stay engaged and start moving again. My wife's Durango does this and it is GOLDEN!!!

2) Where in the world is the OIL LIFE?? I have went through every menu 70 times and can only find the reset.

Thank you for the help!!

We do not have the "stop n go" ACC in our trucks. Its my understanding that the 2018 F150 will though. If that is the case there may be an opportunity for us to upgrade in the future.

As for the oil life I can't help you. Its my guess that it will inform you when its time to change but no sooner.

None of the 2017 Ford trucks, F150 included, have the stop-start ability in the Adaptive CC. In 2018 the F150s get it, don't know about the SDs. And it is not something that can be changed with FORscan or anything else like it.
Don't know about oil life as I don't yet have my truck.

I know we don't have it but that is what hackers are for It is simply computer code telling it to disengage at 12MPH. There is a line of code where that number needs to be changed to 0MPH.

As far as the oil life, I need to know as I travel with my truck up to 250 miles in a day and can't get free to take it in for weeks at a time. It would be nice to know when it is coming due to plan it. I idle my truck a LOT so my mileage isn't the best way to compute it.

Why don't you just do your oil changes by your miles? I change my oil every 5k and not worry about the truck telling me to especially when they are setup for every 10k which i think that's to many miles between oil changes.
