Missing my adaptive steering...

My F-350 is in the shop this week (long story see this thread for the background). My dealership (Covert Ford in Austin) gave me a brand spanking new F-250 6.7 Lariat as a loaner while they sort things out. The loaner is nicely equipped but it doesn't have Adaptive Steering like my Super Duty. I can tell you that if have it and then don't - you will miss it. When I was first driving the loaner, I was thinking man this truck is not driving right then I realized it was the Adaptive Steering that I was missing.

Good to know. It's an underappreciated feature for sure and one of those, "You don't know what you have until it's gone" kind of things.

Mine also is at covert and I also have a new F250 6.7. The only difference is that the loaner has more options than I have. My wife wanted the sunroof, but after hearing about those with leaks, I decided not to get it. Now wishing I had it. I will say that although the short bed turns better, I'm very happy with the ride of my long bed.

Checked my window sticker and my KR doesn't have the adaptive steering. Guess it's one of those things that if you don't have it you won't miss it. Glad I did get some other options that look nice while the truck isn't moving (20" wheels, white plat, caribou accents).
