Thanks to everyone for your posts. I would have responded earlier but I thought I would get emailed when people replied to my post, which i didn't.
sounds like its a non issue and if anything i can always update the firmware and the usb ports if needed. How can I tell what build I am getting?
I finally found a 2016 Ford edge sport with the all the options I want so I may be joining the FE family shortly! One of those options being the Forward Collision Warning. I was having a hard time understanding the difference between this and the brake assist. It seems like the FCW will precharge the brakes if it detects an oncoming accident, where the brake assist gauges how quickly you press the brake to determine the amount of force it should apply. So FCW is the better safeguard since it is an "earlier" detection system?
