Hopefully another 20 years....I'll really be old by that time but if I'm still around I hope I'll still be jammin
Sound
I was very pleased with my new American Deluxe Strat. The low action makes it a breeze to play, the N3 noiseless PUs are just that (noiseless) and S1 switching adds a bunch of new sounds to the Strat's palette
Features
The American Deluxe Strat's components are top shelf. The locking/staggered tuners will definitely help with tuning etc. In fact, I blocked my old American Standard's tremolo but my new Strat seems to be much more stable and I can bend strings without the tremolo changing the pitch of the other strings.

Value
Price seems to be in line with other price increases over the years. My last American Std Strat cost about $500 20 years ago
Manufacturer Support
I have not required any service but I'm going to assume that it would be prompt etc based on the promptness of the delivery
The Wow Factor
I love the wood grain visible with the Amber finish

"Fender Deluxe Am Strat.... it is what it is, a deluxe guitar."

Easy deal. no regrets.
Sound
The new N3 Noisless pickups are just that, absolutely noiseless. Some of the S1 Switching options are pretty good, thus enhancing the sound of the Strat. I am a little disappointed in the lack of Quack from positions 2 and 4 though.
Features
Awesome trem arm.... doesn't screw in, it just snaps/pushes in. Very nice action. The best feature though is the Compound Radius neck combined with the tapered neck joint allowing easier reach to the higher notes.
Ease of Use
It is a strat. Easy to use, fabulous guitar.
Quality
Fender's quality control reputation made it easy for me to order via mail-order. That plus the return policy made it an excellent deal.
Manufacturer Support
Fender has a new warranty registration process. Keep your bill of sale.
The Wow Factor
I bought it because of it's overall features and price.
