Here are a couple of other little things I have noticed so far...

1. no power down rear window (like the sport trac's)
2. Air recirc. only works for two minutes and turns off
3. better folding rear seats
4. Poorly designed center console
a. coins are knocked out of the coin holder in the dark
b. no CD/tape holders
c. should be carpeted or rubberized on the bottom
d. IT SHOULD OPEN TOWARDS THE PASSANGER SEAT!

Other than that, everything has beened mentioned and I still love my truck, it's not perfect, but its as close as anyones ever gotten!

More kudos! Great write up. Thanks for saving me from making a mistake. I am going to order my FX4 this weekend & was going to order the one piece rear window with the sunroof. You have changed my mind. Pwr. slider it is.

Why on earth do you think the center console should open towards the passenger seat???
