I am confused, I thought you gave the 2019 to your Dad, decided to trade it?Yup. Hell, on the 2019 GT I traded in, they gave $1,000 more than what I owed on the trade in.

Yeah I gave it to my dad and he didn’t want it because it was hard for him to get in and out. So he wanted a truck and I went back down to see what they had and nothing of course for the F150 so they temporarily got him into a bronco while his truck is being built.I am confused, I thought you gave the 2019 to your Dad, decided to trade it?
I appreciate your opinion, lol. I’ll see how it plays out.After reading the entire thread, it appears to
me you’ll never be happy with your existing Mustang or a brand new one off the line. Since you are in good with the owner of the dealer, initiate the buy back and look for another brand/model in your price range which meets your expectations for build quality.
Yea. A F150 will be much easier to live with. I traded in a 19 Ruby Red F150 in on the 21 Accord that I traded in for the Mustang. The Accord did everything great, just too boring. I was given more than I paid for it and only made a few payments.Yeah I gave it to my dad and he didn’t want it because it was hard for him to get in and out.

Thanks! Yeah I can’t do trucks because I prefer to sit lower. Some people like to see ahead but I prefer to be able to maneuver around things. I have been looking at the 2 door bronco although I understand it’s not everyone’s cup of tea.Yea. A F150 will be much easier to live with.

Give them a chance to work out the rattles and things will get sorted. Mine is temperamental to wide temperature swings and makes noises from the instrument cluster quite loudly when its very cold out but what can ya do, kind of like a vibration rattle. Its a beautiful car and worth the issues to me. Your intro picture of the car is stunning.
I was a passenger in a Bronco. Lets talk about poor ride quality, noise etc. It s still another Ford.Thanks! Yeah I can’t do trucks because I prefer to sit lower.

The issue isn’t the squeaks per say, it’s how loud they’ve gotten and especially right next to my left ear in the driver side panel. It doesn’t help I have bile reflux coming up into my sinuses/ears making them hurt and burn.I was a passenger in a Bronco. Lets talk about poor ride quality, noise etc. It s still another Ford.
You must be new around here. There's more flesh on those horse bones. Vultures and Coyotes are notorious for leaving tasty morstles behind for the next tier of scavenger.well we have exhausted this thread until you post the dealers advise on your concerns. Good luck and report results please.
That does not look like something easy to deal with. Good luck!The issue isn’t the squeaks per say, it’s how loud they’ve gotten and especially right next to my left ear in the driver side panel. It doesn’t help I have bile reflux coming up into my sinuses/ears making them hurt and burn.
I hear you and have seen what you talk about.I think one of the major causes of a lack of pride in many peoples work and a consequent lack of company loyalty and a desire to always give 100% attention to detail in producing quality work, lies at the feet of the modern style of company management.
Their penny pinching, treating employees as disposable and underpaying everywhere they can attitude in order to say “look how cheap I can run the company for you” in order to ensure another fat unearned bonus for the year, is the death of employee loyalty and with it goes any desire to do anything other than to roll up, do your job with minimum effort, get your pay and go home to forget about work, for as long as the job lasts.
It need cost no more to assemble a car to a high standard than a low one, it takes the same amount of time and just needs the desire in the person doing it to want to be the best they can. What it needs is a sense of belonging and family if you like in being a part of that company, not just another necessary evil that management would and does ditch at the first opportunity.
When I started work in 1975 for a major bank, we were a family, the bank cared for and looked after its staff and we in turn always gave our best effort, we worked and we socialised together. Then I came the new broom MBA Uni degree style managers, with no people skills and bugger all idea what actually makes a business a success, and it all went downhill from there.
To sum up I think my attititude by the time I told them I had had enough was pretty common and still holds today for many people.
I told them I used to work for the bank and they paid me. Now I work for the money, it just happens to be at a bank at the moment.
I doubt it’s any different at automobile plants today, or maybe, just maybe companies like Kia, Hyundai and Toyota etc do realise that company loyalty and a desire to do ones best is something the company both needs to earn and will gain a valuable reputation for quality from, and you don’t just get it via a pay packet. Maybe that is why their fit and finish is so good as some have suggested.
