Thanks for the clarification Outland. I'm going to read up more about the "direct control" because I didn't even realize that there was more to it with the upgrades on the '05-present models
(especially because I already had my '04.5 by the time they released the '05).
I'm sure I'd be more satisfied with the handling, but I also wouldn't be happy with having to pay for the service, so that would be a big trade-off for me.
