Had the same problem until Ford replaced the front pads. Had clean wheels also and they did a great job. Actually have 4 Klean wheels for 17" rims for sale. They were used for 2 months. $35 + shipping takes them. Email me if your interested.

Hey Lee- You got a sure solution to the brake dust. Did you replace the Conti's and lower the pressure? I just took 7 people on a short trip, and my Expy rode like a Cadillac. It seems like the more load, the better the ride. Still looking for aftermarket shocks for the new model, but I'm told it will take patience until someone comes out with something.
