That's the crassest comment I've ever seen to someone' s preferences. I defy you to can me lazy to my face. I simply want the cruise to stay on. I don't care if it retains the last speed setting, and I don't want it engaged. I just don't see the need for it to be "off" ever. Many cars with...

(1) Mode (Sport+/Track/Snow) not saved between starts, reverts to Normal. The steering mode is saved though. (2) Cruise is turned off between starts. Is there any reason why it can't be left on and start up in deactivated mode? My 2003 Eclipse has this feature. (3) Exterior lights don't...

Have you tried detaching the glove box door (right side)? Detaching it and dropping it down gives you more room along with opening the drivers manual compartment. You need to learn to detach the glove box door anyway to change the cabin air filter.

The priority number is only meaningful to that particular dealership. It determines in what order that dealer wants his orders to be scheduled. It has no bearing on orders placed in other dealers.

You can try @FordService on Twitter as well. The response time is much quicker there and they have the same tools as the Rachel and the rest of the Ford crew attending to the forums. Given that, Rachel does a fantastic job here, but she has to cover much more territory than the Twitter crew.

Delivered - finally! Arrived at the dealership Tuesday 12/16 and signed papers this morning. No paint blemishes or panel alignment issues. All the electronics I've tried work as advertised. Left the dealership in a fairly strong drizzle (rain in Tucson - must be freezing in hell today) and...

Allocated vs. allocated quicky. At this point in the model year it's not that much of an issue. Most of the enthusiasts and large volume dealers have been served. Try getting an order scheduled at a small dealership at the beginning of a model year, especially on a popular vehicle or a...

20" wheels are heavier for the same model of wheel and typically are mounted with a lower aspect ratio tire (30/35 for the 20" vs 40/45 for the 19"). The greater weight will affect handling. The narrower sidewall on the 20s will give you a harsher ride and less protection for the wheels from...

Another quick update. EDD moved up a day this morning to 12/22. Dealer claimed the car was on a Burlington Northern train in Kansas on Thursday morning. About a week to go.:thumbsup:

Your dealer can provide it.

Here's one for Jimmy:

Both are tame compared to Flyers fans.

Some of the pre production cars had the pony on the windshield. I have yet to see a production car with it.

Message @FordService on Twitter to get the current status of your car. They respond much quicker there than they do on this forum. Rachel and the others on the FordService account here do a good job, but seem to be stretched more thinly than the Twitter team. Once you have the current status...

First complaint: allocation and scheduling lottery. Second: transport scheduling lottery Third: no car yet

Use this site to help you decide: http://tintlaws.com/ Stay legal and base your decision on where you are likely to spend significant time with the car. It is highly unlikely you will be stopped while driving through a state on a trip. If vacationing a week or more, and you have window tint...

Be aware that any order that dealership places at a 10, 11, or 12 priority will schedule before yours. Your scheduling delay could be a lack of allocations for that dealership or the dealership taking and placing later orders with a better (10, 11, or 12) priority than yours. In my case, the...

Look for a dealer that will verify they have an allocation for your order available now and that they will place your order with a priority 10 with no delay. If they hold on to your order or place it with an 11 or above priority, later orders at that dealership can bump your place in line. You...

Understood - if you must have a specific build ordering is the only way to get it. However, once you order it is a passive process and you cannot influence the outcome. You have no control over allocations, order priorities, parts shortages, transportation delays, etc. Once delivered, you...
