Took delivery this morning (pictures tomorrow or Monday). Immediately installed the underbody cavity shield. Question, has Ford moved the muffler in the '25's? In the install video and the various YouTube look-at-the-undercarriage videos, the muffler is in the back right next to the exhaust...

Confirmed arrival. They say it'll be ready tomorrow morning.

That seems a bit... unprofessional. I plan on the latter two as well, plus some kind of tailgate lettering. I'm also planning on the underbody shield, a modified tie-down on the tailgate, and some kind of tonneau cover. I hope to install them all myself, but we'll see how that goes. It's...

Apple certainly. My phone is an iPhone and it supposedly plugs into the car audio and can use voice commands. Obviously that is ambitious.

Me: *wanting to text a friend to let them know I'm running late* *pushes button on steering wheel to activate voice commands* "Hey Siri, send a text." Siri: "Who should I send a text to?" Me: "Send a text to Cal." Siri: "Send a text to Roberta Johnson?" Me: "No." Siri: "Who should I...

Aaaaaand now my deal tells me they updated the shipping dates in her system again. They now read Jan 29 to Feb 5. At that point, my special order vehicle will have been sitting in the rail yard for about a month while Ford delivers stock F-150's to the dealership by the truckload.

That's actually a bit of a trick question since you didn't say exactly which controls would have buttons/knobs, where they'd be placed, etc. So, my answer is... it depends. If Ford does a good job with it then I just might. I'm also in the I-use-leather-gloves group and a touchscreen is...

@MABETT You said "black lens version" in your post. Does that mean you will eventually be producing both versions or that the black lens won? Thanks.

My truck has been sitting in the railyard here in town for a couple of weeks now while Ford keeps pushing out the delivery date (on the dealer system). On my order tracker, it still shows 1/10 to 1/16 delivery window. Through yesterday, it said it was last updated 1/4, but as of just now it...

I found it just by searching Escape parts for hybrid nameplate (or something like that).

Price. Any Ford dealer can sell you an EV unless you live in like Florida or California I wanna say. Those states require you to buy in-state. Ford sells the EV to the dealers who then mark it up, some ore than other. Places Like Granger mark it up very little, hoping to make it up by...

I've been contemplating extended warranties as well, though my vehicle has yet to arrive. Like you, I tend to/want to own it for a decade or more. Things I consider: My car was 10-years-old last October and looking back, it cost me over $8,000 since 2019. An extended warranty for ten...

I like the effect, but I wonder if it would be harder to place that decal precisely. I've also been looking at the "reflective black" vinyl material. That would reflect white at night under headlights, but look black during the day. Or bonze... I do like the bronze-on-green examples here. I...

Ford just pushed out my delivery window again. They were saying the 21st. Now it is back to being a range all the way out to the 25th. If it takes that long, it'll have been sitting at the local railhead here in town for well over two weeks waiting for the car carrier. :-/ For reference, it...

An, if I recall, no trailering, not that that's an issue unless the dealer sends a single persont to do the pickup and they need to tow the vehicle they drove back to the dealership.

If it's going to be a lot of interstate miles / miles at a steady speed, I'd probably be a bit concerned. Ford's recommended break-in period is 1000 miles, so you are talking about 20% of that. You could ask the dealer for written assurance that they will drive the 200 miles in accordance with...

IMO The purple looked surprisingly good, but I was surprised how weak the lighter gold was, both probably because there is a lot of yellow in EG already. The bronze gold looked good though and you could get bronze wheels to match it. The white was also only ok; I liked the matte black better...

Mine is sitting at the railhead here in town waiting for Ford to schedule a car carrier to drive it to the dealership. I keep being tempted to drive down just to see if I can spot it in the lot. But I think that would just make it that much harder to wait for it.

I think some people have had their window stickers update or change or something too.

Amber... I think. Not sure I see much difference assuming the two videos are the two different versions. And I guess match the other lights on the vehicle if possible. So, I want to ask since some localities may require marker lights to be amber @MABETT; is that a white light in the center?
