8 months left, and the ability to extend the warranty with a Ford ESP warranty if you’re so inclined. Personally, if the purchase price is remotely close and the color isn’t a massive factor, I’m going for the 2020. Better suspension tuning, better functionality in the stereo, better options...
I have a few thoughts….
1’st: That’s a true bargain and everyone NEEDS that!!!!
2’nd: I’m not sure how much that’ll help on the street.
3’rd: I can’t find my credit card… I think my wife hid it from me to keep me from making unnecessary car purchases.
G-loc GS-1 is my street pad of choice. You won’t notice a degradation of performance on the street and there’s almost zero dust. There are cheaper pads, there are more expensive pads…. But these things do what they’re supposed to do for a reasonable price...

These starters are known for being trash and going intermittent before completely dying.
keep us posted.
Bummer…. When there’s an intermittent starting issue in this car it’s almost always the starter. It’s not cheap but it won’t cost thousands if you have the dealer do it. If you do it yourself it’ll be a few hundred.
Is it possible it’s something else… of course, but start with the most obvious...
Haha, thanks for the shout out :)
I do make an oil filter guide to keep oil away from the belly pan during filter change. 600 or so people can attest to how well it works :)

I had the starter come and go so many times, I started parking on hills so I could roll and pop the clutch to start. Sometimes, after starting the car that way, the starter would work the next time I tried…. So weird.
I’m willing to bet if this is a recurring problem, the starter is bad. It’s...
Even though you manually actuated the starter, don’t rule out the starter being the problem child. Many of us have had intermittent starter issues requiring a replacement. I went through 3 starters before selling my car.
May I recommend this lovely video where I describe proper usage of the oil filter guide around the 4:24 mark. It can definitely be helpful:
I looked it up, you paid exactly $110 one year and 25 days ago :)
Thanks to everyone whose purchased!
