Luke, you posted on the day we closed on the wife's 13 Sport...
I finally got to drive it this weekend for the first time !!! had to wake up early and sneak out to get coffee so I could drive it !
We traded a NICE 2011 Audi Q5 Premium Plus in on the Sport, no issues with the Audi, just the wife wanted something new and @ $200 per month cheaper it was a win-win...
I am working on a feature by feature comparison since the Audi forum members asked why would I go to a FORD ?!? and so far I've not noticed much better except:
it's more cost effective,
faster,
MUCH MUCH more powerful - like + 154hp,
92 more lbft torque,
but comparable mpg as the Audi's 4 cyl,
does not require premium,
similar understated excellence,
except for those much betta, awesome-r wheels !,
bigger,
roomier,
handles better,
quieter,
better UPDATED nav,
power open AND close liftgate from inside (big plus!),
keyless,
remote start that Audi doesn't offer,
blind spot warnings (already spoiled by that !),
lighted sills and ambient lighting is nice,
third row seating,
quad bucket seats,
better moonroof shade-the Audi's was white and perforated so didn't stop the heat AND uglier !
the Sony 5.1 surround sound is better than the Bang & Olufsen,
expecting cheaper service costs,
tows more weight,
all that and only weighs 600 lbs more
other than that, can't think of a thing that's better, but give me a few more minutes driving the Sport
well done Ford, well done !
