One of the most highly sought-after safety systems is Adaptive Cruise Control. This advancement can be equipped on the new 2021 Ram 3500, and it will change your entire world.
Â
While it does provide the ability to set a speed limit, this feature goes above and beyond the average cruise control mechanism. It also lets you choose a following distance between your truck and the vehicle that is traveling in front of you.
Â
As the flow of traffic begins to slow, so will the Ram 3500. It can even come to a complete stop with a trailer in tow without any extra input from you as the driver. If movement picks up again within 2 seconds, you won’t need to step on the accelerator. If you are halted for a long period of time, the pre-sets will be cancelled, the electric park brake will be engaged, and your intervention will be required to go.
Â
To activate it, simply push the ACC On/Off button located on your steering wheel followed by SET+ and RES+. If another car moves in front of you, the “Sensed Vehicle†icon will appear on your instrument cluster.
