I've always liked Fords and they have been dependable for me. Coming from a 2005 Mustang GT my SE model with the convenience package has everything I need. I can plug in my ipod and the sirius radio is great. It's comfortable, quiet, handles good for my style of driving, has plenty of power and looks great. I had two tone Katzkin leather seat covers installed which added $1100 but it was well worth it. I also bought it for much less than the Mustang cost new. I drive 25% city and 75% highway and in the first 1300 miles I'm averaging over 25 mpg.
If you're riding the leading edge of technology you have to pay the price in more ways than the initial cost. Those of you with MFT hang in there, I'm sure Ford will get it figured out. Hopefully, the business risk made by Ford to release this product will pay off in the long run. In the meantime, it looks like mixed reviews from those who hate it, those who love it and those who understand the challenges and are dealing with it.
