even some simple contour to separate the buttons would help.

I agree, it took me several thousand miles of seat time to memorize the steering wheel controls

I have photophobia, I have trouble with UV light and bright lights in general. Especially 5000 to 6000 Kelvin LED light, I can't stand bright white light. Warm White in the 3000 Kelvin range is much more palatable for me. I have to wear polarized glasses anytime I'm outside or I get a massive headache.
All of my customers are installing 5k led overhead lighting so now I have to buy special safety glasses, in that environment it's almost as bad as being outside.
As much as a PITA as that can be, I have excellent night vision. So yes, I have never used high beams.

Not sure what you mean about " purely Apple BS".
The last time I checked, the factory navigation does not work within AA, Waze, or Apple CarPlay so does your "Apple BS" reply applies to the stock Ford navigation.
Just wondering.
Have a great day.

I drive about 7 miles on the hwy from one town to another usually not busy at 5:30 when I get on my way. I see people coming, they click off their hi beams, pass me and turn them back on. I just recently started noticing that everybody uses high beams and I never do. It actually made me laugh and now it stands out to me, people are always switching from high to low.

As for high beams, many cars and trucks now offer auto high beams, which uses a camera to "see" oncoming vehicle headlights (or taillights) and automatically operate the high beams. The system that can be had on these 2017+ Super Duty trucks works quite well.

I hated it when my door latches froze and wouldn't latch closed when our temps dropped below 0.
I really don't like it when I open a door and all of the loose snow that's on the door is sucked inside the truck.

Have had the same issue with my door in cold weather. Flew open when I pulled out of driveway last week, mine is not in the recall date range either.

IIRC, the "purely Apple BS" comment was in response to somebody who was trying to blame SYNC because they could not use Google Maps within Apple CarPlay. I doubt Apple will ever do anything to integrate with Google, but for sure none of it has to do with SYNC or Ford's navigation system. Talk about a lot of cooks in the kitchen!
Frankly, I don't know why people get so excited about using CarPlay or AA. I've used CarPlay, and when your phone is attached it quickly takes over the system. The audio player is inferior to Sync, and I don't find the Nav to be much better.

I had it on my '13 and I'll agree with you there BUT why wouldn't something like that be STANDARD on a Lariat trim?
