Auto High Beams
I drive my 2021 F-150 XLT three miles down a rural one lane road early each morning to get to the highway. By design, I have to manually turn the high beams on at such low speeds. Once I turn on the highway, and reach highway speeds, the high beams do not revert back to Auto High Beams. To get the Auto High Beams to work I have to switch the headlight switch to the On position, then back to Auto to reengage the Auto High Beam feature.
It seems this should happen automatically. Am I missing something?

It’ll take a few seconds but the auto high beam system will switch to the auto mode after driving a bit but if it’s not soon enough for you, once you hit the column to turn them off, it’ll be in auto mode and act normally.

Just keep it in Auto mode and hit the high beam when needed.
