Default Active Driving Assist on F350 Trucks?

My husband is looking for a 2021 F350 with active driving assist (self-steering). However, I can't tell from Ford's website which model (King Ranch, Ultimate, etc.) or package(s) have this feature. For some reason, I'm finding Ford's website less than helpful. Can anyone answer my question?

Thanks.

Not sure if you might be referring to ADAS, driver assistance.
Suggest you check with any salesman at dealership.

Thank you. On Ford's media site (from several months ago), it's called "Active Drive Assist." My husband has already asked local salespeople and they don't seem to know. Sadly, Ford's website needs a major overhaul, in my opinion. It shouldn't be this difficult to determine. Do you want to sell people on the features you offer or what?

I could be wrong here, but I'm not sure if you are talking about an ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System). Different manufacturers call it different names, but are you referring to what might be called "Lane Departure Assist" where if the vehicle strays out of the lane ,the system will automatically steer you back into the center of the lane. Just about all new vehicles have it now, it is a safety feature.
If one dealership cannot provide a satisfactory answer , I would definitely try another dealership.

It's more than just lane departure assist. It's essentially hands-free driving while in cruise control. It will beep at you if you leave your hands off the wheel for 30 seconds or so. Last year while on vacation, we rented an Explorer that had this feature.

I am reasonably sure all new vehicles have this feature since it is a safety feature.
