I'm still at least more than a year away from purchasing a GT, possibly longer. I've decided on what I'd most likely get (oxford white 301A with space grey interior, auto, active exhaust, spare tire) as well as an ideal build (400A with the above options plus the B&O system, possibly California Special). I've test driven a '24 GT once, and while I was impressed for the most part, I'm not quite convinced to go all in yet (thus the "possibly longer").
My main concern is with all the A/C controls being exclusively on the touchscreen. While I'm typically a "set it and forget it" kind of guy with it, every once in a while I will have to adjust the settings while driving. I forgot to see if this would be a regular problem during my test drive. Part of me hopes it's just something I could eventually get used to with time, but the other part of me isn't so sure.
And then there's insurance. I pay around $500 every six months for my EcoBoost (which, also of note, I'll be done paying off in August of 2025---I bought it new in 2019). How much should I expect my insurance to go up if I upgrade to a GT?
I know I'll have more questions as I go. But in the meantime, what else should I be doing to prepare to purchase a GT? And are there any other questions I need to ask myself about this future endeavor?
