I love mine- if nothing else, the telephone hands free sounds and works great. If you don't want it then don't use it- why bother with the expense of "deleting" it.

It's nice for the music features. Dealing with the phone is a pain IMO.

Pretty happy with both the phone and bluetooth audio portions of it myself.

If there's something with the phone part of it you need help/advice with; I'd help if I could. I think once it's initially set up its smooth to use- also the pain in the *** part might be that you have the "prompts" enabled- which I'll admit is a bit tedious to deal with.

I really like SYNC but I"ll agree there is a learning curve. I had trouble deleting one phone for another but eventually got it figured out. I hate to read directions( its a personal problem).

I would not trade for my SYNC - it works great with my phone - and was a factor in buying this truck - a small one but still factor. I additionally keep an 80GB IPOD I was no longer using hooked up to it permanetly and once you learn how to use the voice controls it works great in controlling the IPOD via USB.

There is a learning curve, but stick with it and go online for the tips on using it via voice controls which helped me.

No it isn't. It's a gender problem. I didn't read 'em either. You ain't alone
