The hybrid Ti does not come with the dual exhaust.

I believe you need to change the volume while she is speaking.

That worked, thanks!

Nope, no dual exhaust, no ambient lighting in the cup holders and no aluminum pedal covers :( That's all the Hybrid Ti is missing (besides the large trunk space).

Not mine! They wouldn't budge on the X-Plan price. They even charged me the new, higher price and I'm going to have to wait 3 months for a damn refund!

 

They did give me a free oil change, but it'll be 2 years by the time I have to use it (first one is free).

I guess you pointed out all the stuff missing that was advertised??

Oh yeah, even before I picked up the car. Even pointed out the physical moonroof buttons (instead of touch sensitive). They're saying it's all Ford's decisions and they have nothing to do with it, lol.

Oh I didn't realize the touch sensitve moonroof buttons were changed to physical buttons. That's ok though, it's actually probably for the better.

I think I'm the first one on this forum. I'm still uploading pics and they're of the ambient lighting at night :) It looks really good - just wished the cup holders were also lit up.

 

Yes, I cranked it up! I'm learning how to use Sirius and the stations I like (Dance/Electronic/Top Hits) sound really good. HD radio also sound good and I can definitely tell the difference between HD and non-HD radio. I tried Pandora over bluetooth, but the quality wasn't all that great. iHeartRadio sounded good too :)

 

I wish we had AppLink on MFT, that would make it sooo much better :)

 

NICE car, bro!!

 

I want AppLink, too. It would be much better, because of the ease of controlling it, but I can't imagine that it would make the sound any better. It would still have to transmit over Bluetooth.

 

Question, have you tried playing Pandora with a 3.5mm input or a USB input?? If that doesn't sound great, then perhaps it's a problem with phone reception.

 

If the rumors about build dates being approximately one week from invoice dates are true, then my HyTi might go down the line this week. Fingers crossed.

Yes, I tried the USB input and Android won't play music over USB (iPhones have a separate music track that most other phones don't). Since it's a Titanium, it doesn't have the 3.5mm input, just the A/V one. I would have to use a 3.5mm to RCA cable (I have one somewhere). Pandora itself might have also been the cause, phone was either on Wi-Fi (outside in the driveway) or T-Mobile's HSPA+/3G. I recently noticed that the 4G data speed at my house dropped, even though the phone shows it has full HSPA+ signal.

 

My car was built 7 days after the date on the sticker, so yours should too. Good luck & thanks for the nice words :) !

Hmmm . . . I wasn't interested in aluminum pedals, figuring that they'd just get scuffed up and make the car look old, anyway.

The absence of lighting in the cup holders is both disappointing and mystifying, though, because it seems like it would be more trouble than it's worth to change that feature on the Hybrid Titanium. They didn't decide to delete it from the ICE Titanium, as well, did they?

The ICE Titanium never had it either :( Until someone posts a pic of a '13 Titanium with them, I'm sticking with this. All the gas Titaniums I drove/saw at the dealer didn't have them.

Ford was always cagey in how they advertised the Titanium models. Most of the brochures showed the gas Titanium and not much I saw specified exactly what was going to be on the hybrid version early on. I 86'd my order when I found out the dual exhaust wasn't part of the package.

Can you post a picture of your moonroof buttons? We love the touch sensitive buttons, it would be annoying to lose them. Do you know why your car doesn't have touch sensitive buttons?

I talked to Ford chat and they assured me the buttons on the moonroof have not changed to physical buttons, HA. I'm sure mine will be just like yours. It should be delivered in 12 days.

As far as I know that was changed with Job#2. My SE built 03/08/13 does have actual buttons. My sales guy pointed that out when I picked up the car.

 

It might be on the BOF but touch version wasn't reliable enough for Ford.

I also love the touch sensitive buttons for the moonroof. After a few tries they become very natural and fast to operate. Boo on Ford. It appears they were influenced by those who whine loudly about anything different.

Why couldn't it have been part of the sync. (Bing!) "open sunroof" BAM! the sunroof opens. That would have been cool.

It's a shame Neod that you don't have the touch sensitive buttons, we really like them. No issues at all.

 

The one thing I don't like is that if the moonroof is vented and we want to open it all the way we can't just hit the open button. We have to hit the close button first and then hit the open button. Same thing if it's open and we want to vent, we have to close first and then vent. Do your physical buttons work the same?
