My direct injection 2.0 in my focus has a shade under 200k and it's still perfect. Mpg hasn't changed at all and performance hasn't seemed to change. Uses less than a qt of oil between changes every 15k miles. It needed 2 new vvt solenoids at 120k, but those were easy to replace and like $13...
Just a follow-up since I just went through this. The above poster is correct. The truck came with the in-transit tag, then they sent me the temporary IA title/registration/tag (30 more days) in the mail a week later. I went to the VA DMV today with the papers Granger sent me and it was...
Had my first drive today. 72 miles round trip. 44.7 mpg. That's nothing like what you guys are getting, but it's good enough for me!
First time ever driving a hybrid. Put it in eco for most of the drive and had AC on for the drive home.
Was supposed to be here tomorrow, but driver asked if I wanted it tonight. Yep. Have a big church 1/2 mile down the road which is well lit (vs my long, dark driveway). Nice night for a quick bike ride.
They loaded my mav onto a truck today and it's on the way here. So easy. Everything as-expected. My original salesman left, but it was a smooth transition to the person who took care of the final paperwork this week. A few electronic signatures, and that was that. Financing, warranty, etc...
Quick question I haven't seen answered. Is there a list of steering wheels that will work? I've seen bronco sport and escape, but also a Fiesta st wheel. Is it just anything from Ford past a certain date?
This should be the rule, not the exception. The blame falls squarely on the crooked dealers.
Now, if we want to refraim the discussion (this isn't meant to be a reply to you), to how to avoid bad dealers, that's fine, but people here saying it's a customer's fault when a dealer steals from...
Had an 04 expedition that rusted the radiator support out completely. The repair was extremely time consuming (weld on a new front panel after taking everything off). It was purely due to an absolutely idiotic design.
Otoh, my 12 focus is essentially completely rust free. Good design is at...
All paperwork completed via email today. Super easy; took like 10 minutes total, including financing and getting an esp. Ready for the truck to pick it up and bring it to my house.
Soooooo close....
Oh man. If bce goes before pcm you're screwed. They start the whole production process over again. Usually about a 6 week delay until it gets back on the assembly line.
Sorry...
