Looking to get a small hatchback

[Scrumhalf]

Thanks, Turbo. It actually was very easy to install. Took me about 1 hour max.

By the way, no need to spend a bunch of money. Get this one - this is what I got and it is excellent.

Here is a clip from my drive home this evening. I set the dashcam to record at 1080p, so make you pick the 1080p setting on youtube to display the clip. Pretty decent quality for 70 bucks, I think.

And yeah, I was streaming Pandora over BT to the stereo and it was set to an alternative music channel, so no grief about the music, please! :D You can hear the radar detector going off periodically in the background.

How do you like like the Mytouch Sync system?

I absolutely hate it! If it wasn't a fortune to completely remove and install something after market, I'd be all over it.

Just like a Windows machine; unstable, unreliable, and unpredictable.

"The next update will resolve those issues." Seems to be a common sentiment across the web.

What year is your truck, blm? I think the old MFT had issues, but they worked out all the kinks. The new ones are excellent IMO. Totally seamless... phone connects when I get in the car, all calls come through the stereo system, I can use voice commands to make calls, etc. I can also do all the navigation, control climate, select radio stations, etc. entirely by voice without taking my hands off the wheel.

I am very happy with it. The only time I have to actually do something on my phone is if I have to stream Pandora because even if I select BT audio by a voice command, the MFT system is not able to tell the phone to launch Pandora and I have to launch that app manually, but that is a limitation of the BT version on my 2 year old phone. Apparently, newer phones have an updated BT version that reconnnects to whatever app was playing the last time.

2014. You are one of the few that like it. It's clunky and distracting to use while driving. IMO.

Hmm.. weird. Well I like it and that's all that matters, I guess! :D Do you have the version with the full 8" screen that look like this below:





Maybe it is implemented differently in different vehicles? :dunno:

Consumer Reports Slams MyFord Touch, Says System "Stinks"

The article does say that the 2013 version was much better than the earlier version. I don't have any complaints whatsoever. It has been rock solid for me.

I had a 2013 and never saw a single issue!

Just leased a 2014 flex two weeks ago and so far zero problems.

Except the fact that you leased a flex... :lmao:

Make all the fun you want, fucking thing drives amazing. It's quiet, smooth, it has those big ass 20" rims and it still drives smooth as butter and for a giant box it corners amazingly flat with great brakes.
Can't ask much more from a minivan. Lol.
