Ok, so my car is not loaded, but for me it is loaded with a lot of stuff. I would never consider 20
's being part of the loaded package, because that is personal preference and I do not like at all the spoke pattern on the 20s. So I do not have the navigation system on my 2008 Limited.
The BAMR sun roof could have a much better wind deflector. The one they have just makes for a whole lot of unnecessary noise. The one line display for the sync system is not good, you barely know what it says.
They should have not taken air controls off the steering wheel. Cruise control takes up too much room and could be done with one toggle button, instead of three. There should be a passenger side fan control for the air and shut offs for the air on their side. The BAMR controls should be lit up so you can see where the heck they are without turning on cabin light and the controls should be one touch instead of having to hold entire time. The menu controls for the sync system on the radio are poor to terrible.
And as much as I really, really hate to admit it because I made fun off the previous posts...
There really is a serious glare at times on windshield. ARGH, I said it.
The air conditioning is not great. At times it is seriously lacking. Gas Mileage so far is just 16mpg.
Postive notes: The head rests are way better than the 2007. The sound system sounds good to very good.
The BAMR is a great plus, The automatic rear hatch is great. The auto start feature from Ford is great. The Sync is incredibly fun. I love the The Bridgestone Tires and 18 rims, Whether they are plastic or not I like them. The seats are very comfortable and I am a 6-1 240lb. man. Car is nice on the inside. Nice touches. Drives good and handles much better than they said it would, (consumer Reports). I love to be able to talk clear on the blue tooth phone, (people say that my phone sounds better in the car than out of car.) Sat. radio comes with radio for 6 months. There are many more positives than negative in my mind for this car.
I am pleased and feel blessed to have this particular vehicle. I just feel that Ford can address these other things and make a near perfect car. By the way, I have no problem with the brakes so far
