Yeah some common use hard buttons are nice to have. I don’t care how good you are with a touch screen. Some of those hard buttons can be worked without ever looking at them. They still have a place, but there days are numbered unfortunately.
Example below. I like my touch screen, but it took a while to get used to it. Ford’s just looks more user friendly.

I have found the 12" setup to be very user friendly and a good balance with the hard buttons. Screen size works well. It's just a vehicle, not an office or a home entertainment system.

Yeah it’s definitely a lot more busier looking and a longer learning curve than the Ford. I honestly never rarely if ever use the audio hard buttons. I use the steering wheels controls or touch screen when absolutely needed. HVAC, seat heat and cooling hard buttons are nice to have however. And I’m pretty tech savvy. Ford likes to keep some things the way they are for long time customers and the working class who may be gloved etc.

a couple of takeaways from build and price...

no beadlocks on 35s..

every raptor has B&O sound

V6 raptors have 2kW powerboost standard

graphics are standard, but getting deleted does not affect price. LOL

heated wheel and heated/ventilated seats standard on raptor.

$80K for 35"

$92k for 37"

$112K for R

kinda dont care how theyre trying to make the raptor the highest trim in everything. Crazy to think the gen 2 base was 50k ish in 2019.
Was nice having the option to get a "base" model just to get the offroading performance.

Also weird decision gutting out the 35 package out of anything and gouging people on the graphics now. Seems dumb as hell
