does anyone else hate Nav System?

I know I sell them , but MFT really is quite good once you get the hang of it.

For me, it almost ruins the truck. It's easily the worst feature of the truck...no contest.
The Mini Cooper that I traded in on the truck stayed paired with my iphone for 2 years. The truck won't stay paired for 2 days. No amount of button pushing fixes it, unpairing the phone doesn't help and if I "delete" the phone, it reappears after the truck is restarted (Zombie phone!). Yanking/resetting the fuze is the only fix. It's very disappointing and makes me feel like a sucker for spending so much money on something that works so poorly. I regret the MFT/Nav/Sony upgrade...I could have spent the Nav money alone ($800) at Crutchfield or Amazon or even Best Buy and been so much happier.
Maybe I just got a bad one, but if my truck is representative of the "tech" that Ford is buying from Microsoft, somebody should be getting fired. It's awful.

Factory Nav was not an issue for me when I bought my 11 Lariat. I have a Tom Tom 2535L with free map updates (quarterly). It also has Live Services with traffic, fuel prices, and Google search. If you can't find a certain POI in your area you simply google it, click it, and go.
