Any ideas on why the Ford button systems aren't standardized between models, specifically the steering-wheel buttons?



In my Fusion, the controls for the Info Center (which is pretty cool IMO) are on the left side of the steering wheel, with the cruise control. On my Escape, the controls for the Info Center are on the dash, below and behind the steering wheel, and the cruse control is spread over more buttons (instead of 2 it gets 4) This makes them a major pain to use while driving, which sucks as I've gotten used to using them while driving in the Fusion.



Another thing I've noticed is that the functionality of the buttons is different. In the Fusion, if I "double tap" the Setup button, the Info Center displays my oil life % and allows me to reset it. In the Escape, doing that with the Setup button does nothing.



This is like British English to American English :banghead: :banghead:
