Tim, it is a good option if you use it on a regular basis. There were some glitches in the beginning. I had to buy a newer compatible phone, found out about updates for the system form a tech at the Ford dealer. I am now at version 1.3 which seems to have gotten rid of things like dropped calls, playing one track only from my ipod and has improved the voice recognition. I mean, when you press the button, you have to wait for it to give you options and you work your way through the menu. But it works, for phone, nav and stereo. Its actually a pretty fun "toy" in the truck. So good luck, you choose what you want.
