    .. Yes, indeed. There was no pricing funny business at the dealership I purchased from too. That was a relief. ..
  2. Gave up on Ford and bought a different hybrid.

    .. Thanks. I have always been a Honda and Toyota guy so I expect reliability and longevity. My CR-V that got totaled had 228,000+ miles on it and it ran like a top. I've never had a hybrid before so I am really looking forward to it. It has an electric motor for the rear wheels! How cool is...
  3. Gave up on Ford and bought a different hybrid.

    .. Beautiful SUV. Congratulations. I ended up doing the same thing but for a different reason. A few nights back a large deer decided to end its life by running into the front of my CR-V. Totaled. So I went on the hunt and found a new Toyota RAV4 AWD hybrid that was in my price range. It is in...
  4. Understanding Chip Shortages

    .. You are good as far as I am concerned. I was a high level trombone player for fifty years until I retired a couple of years ago. I spent the bulk of my career in Chgo and NYC. I say this because my profession was/is a relic of the past and I dealt with the minutiae of being an artist on a...

  11. Cancel order and buy local?

    .. Messaged? Did you ever call the dealer on the phone? Y'know, the old fashioned way. ..
  12. What's your engine Breaking-In Period plan?

    .. Works the same way but perhaps a good idea to do a fair amount of acceleration/deceleration. Gas on gas off. Doing that loads things up which is what you want. ..
  13. Manual Transmission. If it was offered, would you choose a Standard?

    .. I had a Honda NC700 DCT for about a year and a half, and absolutely loved the transmission. A DCT is essentially an automated manual transmission. Hyundai/Kia use a DCT in their hybrids, so it makes me wonder if a manual transmission could be set up to work with a hybrid. Not that that would...
