Good you caught it under warranty. Does the new unit have a drain plug?

Varies with location. KBB stares the fair market price is $38,639 base in my area. Need to check price in your area. Also considerations on price include FWD,AWD, engine, paint color, option, and availability. https://www.kbb.com/ford/edge/2016/sport/?vehicleid=414920&intent=buy-new Look at what's bring offered in your area and offer $1000 less. One dealer may have a fat invent and be looking for a way to move product. Another down the street is sitting ok and is not movitated.

usually all of the interior back lighting is on one fuse.

Popular Mechanics how to break in a new car engine: http://www.popularmechanics.com/cars/how-to/a3113/how-to-break-in-a-new-car/

I remember reading about the fuel aspect years ago, but I think your right about the Firestone (Eagle wasn't it) tire problem. Forgot all about that, lot of people were killed because of low tire pressure. Caused a big hullabaloo in congress. And yes, it applies to all vehicles (under 10,000 GVWR if I remember correctly).

Believe it was enacted as an additional method to become more fuel efficient. A small loss of air uses slightly more fuel. Wish the statute had mandated a visual readout of the actual pressure for all four tires. Does now for many cars, but not all cars and few of the earlier models. Been nice if it did trigger at 10%.

Don't know, haven't seen you yet. "There ain't no such thing as a free lunch"

Interesting reading on their usefulness. https://www.carid.com/articles/age-old-debate-do-bug-deflectors-work.html

Its the badges and/or plastic covers they put on the tailgate or rear hatch to glitzy it up a little. The Ford logo double-faced taped on the rear is an applique. You can spend an extra $500 on a Raptor and get a big plastic applique that rads "PLATINUM" on it. Looks great, but for $500?

Or you could just glance down at the speedometer.

I believe there's a couple of situations where you get a single horn chirp. One is when you hit the lock button on your remote and the horn chirps once to verify that all the doors are closed and locked. The other involves the remote start, one chirp means the system has received a engine start signal.

I use a harness wired into my mirror (MirrorTap) for my radar detector, turns on and off with the ignition. But that's 12 volt, not 5 volts. Everything in the mirror (dimming, speaker, etc.) runs on 12 volts as far as I know. Suppose you could tap 12 v.and use an in-line resistor to drop to 5 volts. This is the harness I bought, price took a huge jump over the last couple of years, believe I paid $25. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01LBKR2SA/ref=mp_s_a_1_fkmr0_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1485588233&sr=8-2-fkmr0&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=mirrortap%2Busb&th=1&psc=1

For you fellas that have had this mod for a year or more, have you noticed aNY crazing or burning of the reflective material or premature glazing on the clear cover? Has anyone checked the sockets for burning?

I seriously doubt that it would cause an overheating problem, but I seen a car two nights ago with one of these light bars on it, the brightness and glare was considerable. Like someone coming at you with brights on.

... unless you take clients out to lunch on a regular basis. LOL. I was talking with my local service manager about this, his "opinion" was, the "life of the vehicle" is the life of the standard warranty.

Pretty sure that the back is all one piece a the way up into the leather/foam cover. May he possible to remove the entire armrest.

You could have the engine bay cleaned. I use a local full-service detailer and the engine bay looks showroom.

You would have use seats DOT certified for legal proposes. It involves loading at 8x a standard human adult for both the seat and fastening systems as well as the seat belts. The lab testing would run many, many thousands of dollars, far more expensive than would ever be recovered. I work for a nationally recognized testing lab and a competitive lab we are in contact with did do testing for an parallel industry, testing both seats and belts. All of the aftermarket products failed. There's probably no seats you could put in and be legal (or safe in an accidient).

"I Would Rather Be Baking"

I believe you're thinking about the Vehicle Security System, a $200 accessory installed by the dealer. It monitors even small impacts, glass brakage, etc. One smack on the windows and the alarm goes off.

Have you looked on tirerack.Com? They have 100's of choices that will fit. (Ok, that might be an exaggeration, but you get the point).

Once you stick thsee in keep an eye on your housings. I read in another forum where 100w started to burn the housings and connectors. (100 watts is a lot more heat in a small contained space like a housing).

Although ford doesnt recommended changing the (PTU) fluid (AWD) it's been found that the fluid in these units can leak throught the seal and get gooie. (Couldn't think the right word, sorry). Anyway the PTU doesn't get lubricated properly and fails. (Think $$$). It would be a good idea to have your local dealer check the PTU seals and change the fluid. Not all dealers will change the fluid as it's not a recommended procedure and it's a pita to pump out the old and refill. If they don't, try a local professional transmission shop, which will have no problem. (Money well spent). Best to change the fluid every 30k or so, just to be safe. Also recommend changing the transmission fluid and cooling system coolant. (Your dealer will do these). Change the plugs if you gave 90k or more (gap gets too wide, causes too much current to be drawn through the coils and they can fail).
