  1. Maybe it only allows for changes on a fixed schedule (once every 12 months e.g.) and this was too soon. Otherwise it makes no sense.
  2. Yeah that's the same reason I still do my own also. I hate having to wait and then wonder if the tech did it right.
  3. They're not monitoring the forum right now. Use twitter.
  4. The Ford Service reps are out of office for some reason.
  5. How could a maintenance contract not cover oil changes??
  6. That's for the factory warranty. I think the extended warranty is different and that's what he used for the first latch replacement.
  7. It used to show Ford Fusions as Transit Connects.
  8. I've had dash kits before and they never fell off or came loose and I live in HotLanta. That said a vinyl wrap would fit better if you don't want wood.
  9. They didn't start production u til mid December. They should start arriving in volume over the next month.
  10. Some people win big in Vegas once or twice. It's insurance. On average they always pay out less than they charge. It's cheaper to insure yourself if you can afford it. I can afford to pay for a big repair once in awhile but not to replace my house or car. It's great if you can't afford a repair bill so you finance it for a few bucks per month instead. But you're still losing money in the long run. I just don't understand it when people get excited about spending $1500 to save $500 or $1000.
  11. So you paid $1500 up front and you've saved $500 - sounds like you're still $1K in the hole to me. Saying you should always buy an extended warranty is like saying you should gamble in Vegas every weekend. Long term the odds are never in your favor. If they were then Ford would stop selling them or raise the price. You can always make out on a vehicle (or two) just like you can win in Vegas once or twice. But not long term.
  12. Check for PTU leaks. There are dozens of threads on it.
  13. They just want to see a good history of paying on time every month. Not sure the amount matters that much. But honestly I don't think there is much difference between 750 and 800.
  14. I think the people complaining about lag are comparing it to their smartphones or tablets and not other car entertainment systems.
  15. Infinity Kappas and Polk Audio have some good replacements. Even cheap kenwood or pioneers will probably sound better than stock.
  16. I wouldn't count on that much better mpg on the Titanium. If cost is not an issue and you really like the Sport appearance I say go for the sport. Provided you like black interiors.
  17. I'm not sure a 6 year loan is better than a 3 year loan. If you really want the credit bump I would get a 3 year loan for at least $15K and make sure it's paid on time every time.
  18. Yes that's correct. Dealers have the ability to lock in your incentives at order time and you have the choice of those or what is in place at time of delivery. But only if the dealer does it when the order is placed. I wouldn't expect much in incentives for the near future.
  19. Oh wait - $500 factory rebate wasn't factored in to my X plan price. Your price is still about $500 less. I'll have to check out the Costco discount when we get ready to buy.
  20. Wait - the price you quoted - $45,553.71 - did that include those other charges or do those get added on? Doc fee can be as low as $75 or as high as $699 - completely up to the dealer. Although Costco may have a set doc fee agreement as well.
  21. That's a great price. X plan is $46,621. Do you know the doc fee?
  22. I'm planning to have one of each. Trading the wife's escape for a 2016 Edge shortly and I'll be trading my Fusion for a Mustang next year if all works out.
