Sorry for any confusion this might cause :sad: , (Wish I could delete this post) Edited May 6, 2013 by Riddley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxed Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 Honestly I wish they would just use tablets for in dash systems. I would love to control vehicle functions via in dash iPad mini. So much faster and smoother than these manufacturer OS's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A $350 IPad would be way more functional and powerful than the MFT and a $100 Garmin GPS works way better than the FordNav and you get four free updates a year.

Riddley Posted May 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 (edited) Those devices are very functional and excellent for what they are designed to do, but each is also limited in its own right. I believe that if something like one of the popular tablets would be introduced as a feature in a car, a river of product complaints would follow regarding what the device is not capable of doing.
