Heated Seats - 1 or 2 Levels?

Hey guys - one of my "must-haves" with my car was heated seats, which I got. However, I was looking at the Ford site today and saw that the heated seats are supposed to have two different levels, as shown below:

However, my car only has 1 setting and I can't figure out why. Anybody else with heated seats only have 1 setting? Maybe they switched that halfway through 2011?

There are other features folks have found in those on-line photos that don't exist, chief among them being the digital climate control with the regular non-Nav radio display. But we customers have never seen that. (inconsiderate bastards at Ford - they have it but won't let US have it)...

My '11 GT/CS has one setting also. I wonder why they could not have tied to the temp setting too.

Mine only has one setting, too. And it's slow, have you noticed that?

Big disappointment, and one feature where I can honestly say that the Camaro wins hands down ;-). They have two heat levels, quick heating, and heating elements in the seat and lumbar regions.

I know this is highly improbable, but I am convinced my seat heater is heating to a hotter temperature this winter than last. But it's still not as hot as I would like.

That may be a pic of another model that DOES have two settings (like the Taurus, for example). Can't expect Ford to keep track of every little detail.

Mine has one setting and it's not that hot. You can grill steaks on the seats in my wife's EDGE.

One setting here as well. I had a loaded out '12 fusion loaner a few weeks back and it has two setting. This proabably the pic out of the fusion. Really wish the stang wouldve had two settings because the one setting seems to get real warm then cools then warms etc....like it has two built in settings but you cant decide for yourself.
