Been too busy enjoying it to post, but here is a picture:
Thoughts:
Overall its an amazing car.
Pros:
Great ride quality.
I LOVE THE COLOR!
Amazing interior.
Cooled seats are a lot more useful than I thought they would be. The seats stay nice and cool - which is way more comfortable than I thought. Contrary to other posters I do not think they are too loud even on high.
Push button start is AWESOME. I don't ever have to take my keys out of my pocket. Very nice!
All the sensors are really nice - BLIS is very useful. The cross path detection system is really nice - catches cars coming that I had no idea were even there. I even managed to trip the collision detection system and it worked flawlessly.
MFT when it works is awesome. It synchs up with my Droid X flawlessly. It took a bit, but it indexed my USB drive and setup the voice commands - which work surprisingly well. The navigation seems to work pretty well, I only seem to have problems with it when I'm in the city (because of the tall buildings - no GPS seems to work well). The only issue is that Sirius seems to be really buggy. I cannot seem to pull up the channel guide - it seems to hang "Loading." Sometimes, when I hit the "Back" button, then hit browse again, it shows the first screen of the guide with the first couple of categories. Of course if I try and scroll down to see more it goes back to "Loading," and sits there. Today, I went back and forth a few times trying to see if it would load, and if I could expand the categories and it hung MFT requiring my to restart the car. (they really need to have a reboot button somewhere)
Other than that its been a great car so far - of course I only have around 200 miles on it!
2011 LTD 302A, Tow package, sun roof, bucket seats (no console), inflatable seat belts.
Thanks again to the folks behind FordCustSrvc for help in tracking my order!
