As you read this, keep in mind, I love MFT. I am one of those who has little issue with the system. My only issues have been occasional pairing problems when I switch phones.
I just spent about 1000 miles behind the wheel of a 2012 Dodge with the new uconnect. Wow. Ford has competition. There is something to be said for being first, but Dodge caught up quickly. The steering wheel controls on the MFT blow away the Dodge, as does the two smaller displays and options. The center screen and options…well…I never had a speed issue with MFT, but I will now I am sure. Response time is awesome. It’s far better at handling two phones also. The layout to me isn’t as nice, all options reside on the bottom of the screen as all times…but it’s a taste thing.
I really thought no one would catch up for another year. From using it for a little bit…I can’t see much missing. I don’t use TDI that much, so I didn’t miss it. The things I use daily were all in uconnect. Not that I am ditching the Ex, but I am wondering if others have seen anyone else catching up?
