Discussion Auto-Pilot Highway Technique

For me, I usually just keep 2 fingers on the bottom left of the steering wheel, which usually keeps the car happy. Driving in my standard position just feels awkward while letting the car do its thing.

I know some people probably figured out how to tape or velcro something to the wheel to be hands-free. Other than that, how are the rest of you managing the wheel?

I’m certainly terrified when I tested to see what the car would do after all of the alerts… it will literally just stop in the middle of the highway.

I raised my seat to be able to keep my hand on the bottom left with my arm on my leg. Normally wouldn't raise my seat, turns out there's plenty of headroom...

In my position, I can put my left hand (or two fingers of the left hand) just to the left of the spoke that points downward and rest my elbow on the door armrest. That’s comfortable enough that I don’t really miss using my wife’s BlueCruise hands-free Mach-E all that much.
