I am about to pull the trigger on SR Lariat with group 510a

Additional it has the Copilot 360 Active 2.0

Does this mean it has Blue Cruise? I drive a ton and have come to rely on it in my other cars.

Also: do allLightnings have the 9.6 kw outboard charger? It’s not listed on the window sticker.

Being on the road a lot, can I use a mini fridge in the bed 24/7 and have cool drinks on demand? I get tired of stopping for waters all the time.

TIA

probably NO to Blue Cruise, since the 510a doesn't included the hardware/sensors to make that capable - but it should still have the ACTIVE version of driving, lane keeping, hands on the wheel periodically, etc... it's great stuff - Blue Cruise is nice, but not necessary and frankly not usable on most roads or highways. Your other cars probably do NOT have blue cruise, but simply have ACTIVE mode. I don't think any trucks automatically come with ProPower 9.6kw except for the Platinum, although Lariat 512a may included it. You'll have 2.4kw output no matter what, so the cab or bed or frunk will already have 120v outlets.

The hands on the wheel every now and then is what I am looking for. I am learning Blue Cruise is different.
Can the 2.4 me power a mini fridge 24/7 to keep cold drinks on hand? Keep my drill batteries charged? Can I keep everything plugged in all the time?

Lariat trim comes with 9.6kw on-board standard. Equipment group doesn't matter.

Co-pilot assist is standard on lariat and is adaptive cruise, lane centering, etc. This is what you're used to. Unless you're trading in another lightning or a Mach e, you've never used what most people refer to as bluecruise.

Co-pilot active is bluecruise hands free. Car drives itself completely on highways. It also comes with PAAK and the auto parking feature. If it has the $2200 option on the sticker then you've got it. All of this is easily verifyable by building one on the Ford website.

What jumps out to me here, is the "on the road a lot" part. If you are on the road a lot, the SR pack might not be the vehicle for you, as it has a pretty short freeway-hop range; about 130 miles, depending on your DCFC prolificity (i.e., how low you can run it).
