I'm just guessing here, but I think the 2010 model is geared for people who want new styling rather than the retro look the 2005-2009 had. Retro is what I'm after. I like the last Thunderbird and I like the current mustang. The interior of the 2010 is nice, but the previous dash has a lot more nostalgia value for me. My dad's always owned several F-100s and some other old Fords such as Falcons. I grew up around the cars with the old dash. This car fits me well. I'm looking foreward to seeing what the next body style looks like after the S197. That'll be like another 5 years right.

Also I found out that I can get Sync installed in my 09. Pretty cool, that was pretty much the only thing I felt missing when I got the 09.
