They both have the same nav and still prefer Google Maps and Waze over it. Wireless AA is awesome. I just throw the phone on the wireless charger and don't ever have to touch it.

One thing I really like about the built in Navbis the integration with the dash for lane level directions. The Ford Nav is great for this and Apple Maps also uses it.
You can’t get massaging seats or the different trim pieces, or the “upgraded leather”
My statement is correct though. If you want the platinum experience, even for blue cruise,
You can get a Navigator Reserve which calls it ActiveGlide, and it’s roughly the same price point.

"ActiveGlide". Who comes up with these feature names? lol, sounds like something you might buy at an adult store, not on a $100k vehicle.
They are likely going to rebrand it bluecruise similar to what GM does across the lineup. It’s too confusing to customers and ford has higher volume sales so the association is stronger with bluecruise feature name.
I don’t know why more doesn’t carry over from F150. Like the shifter too. It’s a better design in my opinion, and would cut down on SKUs they need to manufacture
I did the same. The smaller screen is large enough to see everything i need too see and yes, I love my physical controls.
Don't get me wrong, I embrace the technology, but I think there comes a point when manufacturers use it more for marketing than functionality.
Same goes for smartphones, new phons get faster with better cameras etc, but a two year old phone does the same job for me just fine. A lot of is marketing so we keep on buying. It is not the same as when the first IPhone came out which was a game changer.
Anyways...., just my 2 cents.

I wouldn't be so sure about that...
Dumb phones are on the rise in the U.S. as Gen Z looks to limit screen time
A resurgence in dumb phones in the U.S. may be tied to concerns about the mental health impact of smartphones, especially among younger generations.
