F150 2011 Lariat is maybe my favorite car I've ever driven from a "dashboard features" point of view.
It's got what I consider the important features - auto lights, auto rear view camera in reverse (embedded in the rear view mirror), bluetooth.
It has very little else smart. Knobs and buttons everywhere, basically no screens (a very small one under the dash showing trip stats, but dials are hugely predominate, and a normal radio display with nothing but the station, song, and clock).
It's a very nice truck - was near top of the line for it's year, good sound system, heated seats, cooled seats - all of it has a physical button.
I hugely prefer it to the dash of any modern car I've rented in the last 5 or 6 years.

I would absolutely prefer to buy a high end car with the budget dashboard (GIVE ME KNOBS AND BUTTONS!)
- infotogivenm 4y agoI have the same dash in my old ford, but with a screen with “Microsoft Sync”. Can’t praise it enough and tell everyone “I will run this truck into the ground” - the screen is almost completely unused; the Nav is.. ok in a pinch, and bluetooth sync is still completely seamless, autosyncs but shows no info about the song track. There are hard controls for everything. Just wish it had a 2A USB jack instead of 500mah or whatever it is pushing so I could avoid needing the cigarette adapter.
- NordSteve 4y agoCould upgrade that pretty easily if you're just using it for power. I just bought a bag of 5 3A 12v -> USB converters for my dash cam install for US$8.
