Anyone know what real differences lie between SYNC 4 (12 inch screen) and 4a (15.5). Currently driving the mach e. Climate controls as physical knows was something I was sure I'd want, but after living with the mach e I'm not so sure. Are there any other significant differences between screens and SYNC versions?

I don't think the 12" has the video games..

Can we revive this thread?

I’ve had my XLT for a few days now and I’m missing a couple things from the MachE. Looks like no profiles, which is annoying since wife and I like different presets. Also no memory seat and mirror positions, not really a sync thing but is related to profiles. My kids are missing you tube and games when we are waiting in the truck.

Are these all actually not present or have I just not found the setting for them? Is there anything else that’s majorly different between the sync systems?

The seat and mirror memory are definitely missing because they are not on the XLT trim. I would think you would still have profiles for things like radio presets.

For the radio presets you could add the third bar then you each get between 1-1.5 screen worth.
