  1. Leave it in place. It helps with aerodynamics.
  2. You should be able to find a dealer to just do the programming. You must have a Ford IDS or equivalent.
  3. Not a mistake but your tire choices will be severely limited with 21 or 22s vs. 20s.
  4. https://www.fordedgeforum.com/forum/12-all-wheel-drive-awd/
  5. I know a few people who have them and they love them. I have the 10 speed auto in my truck and it works great. I think there was some issue with the 5.0L V8 awhile back - you might want to do some research on that. I don't think it's a deal breaker though. And if you're not deadset on the V8 you might test drive the 2.3LEB. The off the line torque is amazing.
  6. No issues with your styling preferences. But those styling cues are what make it look (somewhat) like a Mustang. Some of the angles look weird but I like this front 3/4 shot with a mustang coupe in the background. https://cleantechnica.com/files/2019/11/Ford-Mustang-Mach-E-Ford-Mustang-Car-2048x735.png
  7. Only sync, but not sure exactly what you’re talking about with the service tech. Maybe you mean the pcm or the various control modules? Only rather dealer can update those.
  8. If the OM calls for 80w-90:then that’s what you need. I’d change it. That’s a big difference in hot viscosity.
  9. BEVs are not suitable as only vehicles unless you’re willing to plan longer trips around charging stations or rent something for longer trips. As a second vehicle most will be fine with overnight charging
  10. How often do you drive more than 230 miles per day? Would this be your only vehicle?
  11. Get your glasses checked! I think it looks great.
  12. Just the first edition model. You can still reserve the other models.
  13. Yes, Waze works under Applink (it replaces the sync navigation when connected) which is separate from CarPlay and AA. I have not heard anything about wireless applink.
  14. Of course it was cost cutting. But Waldo is correct - what you're quoting is in the section on cruise control. We're done here. All we're doing is recycling the same arguments. I suggest you either learn to live with it or go trade it. Bitching about it on internet forums won't fix the issue or make you feel better.
  15. Here is what we’re saying, It would be great if Ford included paddle shifters. They are useful for holding lower gears especially when descending a mountain. However, you can descend a mountain in D safely by using the brakes. Just let off of them every once in awhile so they don’t get too hot. Or worst case pull over for a few minutes. It’s not a safety defect, it’s an inconvenience.
  16. Nope. ST-Line. Appearance package with a few suspension tweaks. Same engine as the other Euro Kugas - 1.5EB, 1.5 and 2.0 Turbo diesels.
  17. I'm 56 but it has nothing to do with age and everything to do with common sense.
  18. Because he wanted paddle shifters but didn't do his due diligence before purchasing so now he wants to claim it's a safety defect so he can get a new one.
  19. Did you adjust the volume using the stereo volume control while on the call?

    Mustang SUV

    All but the long range model including the "cheap one" are mid 5 seconds or faster with the GT around 3.5. The 2005 Mustang GT was only 5.2. It's PLENTY fast enough.
