AdvanceTrac is the Lincoln term for vehicle stability control. It will compensate for a slide or skid and typically keep the driver out of trouble. It also will limit wheel spin on acceleration. Traction control just limits wheel spin on acceleration, but won't help if you get in a slide or skid. So, yes, it is better than just traction control.

Yep, that's normal. The light will come on when AdvanceTrac is active/intervening (rather than just enabled).
