They might seem ****y, but really, the only people I hear saying those sorts of gadgets are pointless are those people trying to feel good about owning their woefully underequipped Falcons.

Honestly, unless Ford are going to sell the FH for a bargain price, why would you even look at it?
I dont think so. There are plenty of cars that sell in the top 10 without all the **** the VF Commodore has. Yes its desirable and yes its good but how often do you use half of it. Ive had 2 WN Caprices now and the blind spot monitoring in them isnt precise, I still have to check blind spots. The HUD I turned off after the first 200 kms because it was annoying. The lane departure feature in the commodore is crap, it doesnt vibrate the steering just beeps and show a light in the cluster if your outside the lane. Same goes for the crash avoidance, it only works half the time I have found?? All useless **** that cannot be relied upon.

The Falcon still has superior motors and gearboxes, but never mind that, we all like cheap toys!
