Got the chance to go to Mustang Alley at the Woodward Dream Cruise, and got to see plenty of 2015s. Dave Paricek was there and I asked him when we can expect our cars to arrive. He replied: (paraphrased) "Things are going well and we're on track. You'll see them this Fall."

I got the chance to sit in a GT too. Here are some thoughts (pics to come later, as I am posting this from my phone):

-First thing I'll say is: I did NOT want to get out of this car. It cast some kind of spell on me. Wow.
-The build quality is top notch.
-There is a LOT of room for the driver and passenger. It was like a living room in there. I did not try the back seats.
-MyFord Touch was very quick. Not iPad fast, but definitely usable.

Again, pics and videos later (including some of Dave Pericek in a white LE!)

The only thing I want to drop is the filter. Do you really think Ford would engineer these cars in such a way that you would have to remove anything to access the filter and drain plug?:crazy:

After working at an oil change place, you'd be surprised at what you'd have to remove to get to some of the filters out there. Miatas and Hondas were the worst. Some notables are cars with the Toyota 3.3L and GM 3.6L engines.

But he was talking about putting a shop rag over the cross member to prevent oil from getting on and in it. Hondas with the J-Series V6's were the worst about that, those are on the front of the engine on the passenger side of the car, directly over the cross member. You had to snake your hand through the lower control arm to get to it.
