Merry Christmas to the MTC community!!!

Just want to say I’m a fan of your user name and avatar.

“Storm porn”

Not my name…. Weather Channel started naming these winter storms years ago. Media calling this a “once in a generation” storm which seems a bit melodramatic.

Here in Evansville IN we only got two inches of snow, but it’s very cold (by our standards), with only a daytime high of 5 degF. This is the first winter weather we’ve had here since I got my truck back in March. Made a couple trips to the bank and to my local Walmart about 3.5 miles. My Mav...

Thanks for the clarification. I don’t see the extra value for spending $1500 either.

I didn’t seriously look at it because I didn’t want / need the Tremor package, but didn’t Ford offer a Tremor appearance package - the decals, trim, etc without the actual Tremor hardware? I do agree with you re: the Tremor interior.

Christmas came early for you…. Congratulations and enjoy your truck!

Hey, I sincerely hope you love the Atlas Blue / BAP combo. It just didn’t work for me. The black rims on the FX4 package kept me from getting that package until I finally came to peace with it because I wanted the other features that came with FX4. (Of course, BAP and FX4 are mutually...

Actually like the interior. I think the BAP would be an excellent way for Ford to build the Mav in different colors like Eruption Green etc, that would otherwise clash with the colors of the XLT and Lariat trims. That said, I don’t think it would look good with Atlas Blue which is why I didn’t...

Curious if there are any known statistics on the FX4 and 4KTow packages? I added FX4 to my order on Friday. Overall my only concern at this time is that I ordered through a smaller dealer with low allocations. These statistics tell me my truck will get built….eventually.

I live down in Evansville so Noblesville is out of the way. However my son attends Marian up in Indy and if you schedule this on a weekend I might be able to make it if I’m coming up to visit my son.

I’m also an Atlas Blue order. Personally I’m a big fan of the rims that come with the 4K Tow package, but I really don’t need the tow package, and although I was tempted I passed on the 4K option. Just yesterday I took the plunge and upgraded to the FX4. I had some initial misgivings about...

$3500 over MSRP for a Hybrid might be acceptable to somebody that 1) Needs a truck now, and 2) Has their heart set on a Hybrid. It’s a data point that illustrates the days of ridiculous $10k+ markups, even for a Hybrid, are over…..

I mentioned in a couple of other posts this morning that I upgraded to FX4 and added SIBL/CMS to my order yesterday afternoon. I was talking to the sales guy about Hybrid vs EcoBoost orders and he was telling me that the guy that was in the office before me has a Hybrid order. The sales guy...

My understanding is that you can change the color on your order provided it hasn’t been scheduled yet. Hell, as you probably know by now Ford is even letting people switch from the Hybrid to the EB due to constraints. I guess the only thing you can’t switch is the trim level (XL,XLT, Lariat).

…. And yet here you are in this thread. J/K; to each his own on colors.

Thanks. I upgraded to the FX4 yesterday, while also adding the SIBL/CMS combo. This pretty much is what I’ll be getting. Looks sharp.

I went to my dealer yesterday afternoon and added FX4 and the SIBL/CMS combo to my order. Towards the end of my discussion with the inside order guy, we started talking about priority codes. He said (paraphrasing) “Ford just does whatever they want when it comes to scheduling and building...

Just got my second 45-day e-mail about five minutes ago. At least they’re still communicating…..
