THIS INTERIOR CHANGE IS HORRIBLE. FORD IS LOOSING MARKET SHARE TO GM BECAUSE BUILD A CHEAPER (PRICE), AND MUCH CHEAPER (QUALITY) VAN THAN FORD. THAT IS PROOF THAT PRICE TRUMPS QUALITY IN THE CARGO VAN/FLEET BUYER WORLD.
I feel that Ford has made some very nice changes to the exterior of their van line. I am even all right with most of what they have done to the interior, however I feel that the location of the radio/GPS/reverse camera monitor could not have been incorporated into a more dangerous location. How far away from the road does the driver have to take his eyes in order to figure out where he is going? I don't believe that I would order a GPS unit in a new van for that very reason. I would rather have a Garmin stuck to the windshield up closer to the view of the road. Plus why does Ford feel that having such a straight flat dash is a great idea. Why couldn't the center element have been directed more toward the driver? Just my thoughts.

Anyone else notice the GT500KR and 2009 F-150 in this photo?
