I have a 2008 Lincoln MKX in White Chocolate with the Special Edition package. The sync is fantastic, I have my Blackberry paired and hope that at some point my service provider will update so that I can read my text messages with sync as well. I went out and purchased a Western Digital Passport 120 GB USB 2.0 drive and have my entire music library on it. I just pluged it in and presto I'm syncing away, when I want to add new albums I just unplug and take to my desktop and download my newly ripped mp3's. I think that as Microsoft expands the capabilities it will only get better.
