You're right. The MFT looks beautiful if you're parked while you use it. But the fonts on the MFT are too thin and hard to read at road speed if you don't have perfect vision (like me). I have to look over my glasses and lean in to read the stupid display. Not the safest thing to do...
Just got my ST yesterday! Couple things I noticed that I don't like (so far)
After thinking I wouldn't be able to get an ST, I actually got one yesterday and it's the exact one I wanted! There's only a couple things that I have noticed that could have been a little better (so far lol)
The trunk is way smaller than my 2011 hatchback. For some reason, the piece you pull up to get to the spare tire is way too high up. I think it's really unnecessary. It's hard to explain what I'm talking about unless you see the 2 in comparison in person. My hatchback had 2 12 inch subs, I don't think you can even fit any in the ST because the height is so different.
The other thing is I don't like how the my ford touch is set up. I hate how it has the screen split into 4 sections, it just looks stupid. I looked at the display options and I don't think there is any way you can change it (does anyone know if you can?) At least you can put any picture as your wallpaper (as long as it's 800 x 350 or something like that)
My girlfriend has a Chevy Cruze, and I like the MyLink setup way better than My Touch. Here are some pics of how I wish My Touch looked.

What kind of spare do you have? Mine sticks up above the well several inches and there's no way that the load floor will fit on the lower level unless you bend the heck out of the floor. This morning, I removed the wheel to be sure that nothing was under the tire, and the tire is still above the sheet metal floor even with the jack removed.
Speaking of the jack, the handle assembly is WAY over-thought. I'd hate to try to pull it apart in the dark, and re-assembly is worse. I should have taken a picture of it before I opened it...
And why did Ford choose to bury the fuel funnel UNDER the spare? Another bad idea. I decided to flip the tire over and place the jack assembly on top where it's more easily accessible.
In a perfect world, putting everything into bags might solve the problem.
However, my world is imperfect, and tied bags come undone or rip, or any of a hundred other scenarios can happen. I like Blutos idea. Simple & cheap.
Now we only need to worry about that large grab hole in the floor.
Bluto, what size did you use? I have some made for 3/4 copper pipe, but it's not nearly large enough.
