I love everything on mine except for the electronic steering and the plastic door panels.

How can you hate those things? I love them. When there's leather or cloth on the door panels, that's the first thing that get F'd up.

I don't like them because they are hard. I don't necessarily want leather or cloth on them, but I wish they were the soft touch stuff like the dash is.

Yes and the fob - no trunk release button. One guy had a good idea and he bought an extra fob on ebay and velcro'd it where he wanted (by the headlights I think)

Its a given. No comment required. lol

Only thing I've found that works is a pint mason jar. I just hope the officer believes me that its ice tea and not whisky!

That Ford will not option a telescoping steering column. That would be nice.

The electronic steering kills a lot of steering feedback. And the door panels are just cheap. If you're careful they don't get F'd up!

It's one of the things that I liked better about my 10 than my 11.
