Today's Ford vehicles, including Ford Escapes, are loaded with technology. At Merrill Ford Okemos, we always do our best to make sure you know how to operate your vehicle before you drive it home. But as a resource to Ford drivers, we're also producing a series of "Tech Tuesday" videos to help you make the most of your Ford Escape.

Here Theresa Stechschulte, our resident Ford technology product specialist, demonstrates how Adaptive Cruise control operates in new Ford vehicles, including the 2020 Ford Escape.

This is a safety feature to help drivers maintain a safe speed and distance from cars in front of them. A Ford vehicle with adaptive cruise control will adapt its speed automatically to maintain a set distance from the car in front of it.
