Perhaps the answer is something like this:
Not 68B at this point, which was my argument from the beginning... I agree with you and Tampabear67 and am also inclined that it is logical all Eco boosts will have the gauges with EB PP perhaps having the turned dash as the GT PP
You may very well be correct. But are you so sure that you'd be 100% confident in placing an order and ending up with the dash you want? I'm not.
Therein lies the problem, and why all of this detective work is still ultimately of limited value... other than giving whoever predicted it correctly the chance to pat themselves on the back later.As far as I can tell, it's just a theory that it being used to support another theory.
Exactly my point. What's the point with creating a theory when the FACTS prove them wrong? Fact 1: Order Guide states Gauges come with PP in both GT and EB. Fact 2: Ford has stated in interviews, posted in this forum in fact, that Gauges only come with PP.
Nicely said. I am confident that I will be able to change my already placed order prior to it being built. The GSM assured me of such. Once he receives pictures he and I will meet and make final changes if need be. Just hoping my redline interior does in fact look like the pictures so far.You may very well be correct. But are you so sure that you'd be 100% confident in placing an order and ending up with the dash you want? I'm not.
Looking forward to the official answer. However, I fear that it may not arrive until the build and price feature shows up (currently predicted to be in 1-2 months).
And that illustrates things perfectly.
Just so many darn questions still unanswered right now. I seriously considered going ahead and ordering, but I think I'm content to just wait until everything is in the open. If I ultimately have to wait an extra month or two for delivery of the car, so be it. The wait isn't going to kill me, and I still have my 2012 to keep my company while I wait... ;)
You are correct in stating all the pictures SHOULDN'T be taken with a grain of salt. However your speculation isn't nonsense yet other's are? There are pictures of base radio cars with turned dashes along with premium built. The only common theme is The PP. So it is not nonsense to have some confidence in tying the turned dash to the PP. It may not be fact, but........
For me it doesn't really matter, since the performance package is more important to me than the dash. They have both kinda grown on me. So, I'm glad I ordered when I did on May 20th and now I get to open the package when it arrives and be surprised! Talking about it is sort of like what we all do before Christmas, wondering what we are getting. :gossip:And that illustrates things perfectly.
Damn typo's. And they should all be taken with a grain of salt. And I never said the dash wouldn't come with PP but most people with that theory are basically saying it like it should be accepted as fact when it is still clearly unknown. there is so much confusion in the order guide when it comes to the dash and no clear explanation for a combination of some of the dashes in the pictures. And just because only one photo has a brushed dash with gauges doesn't mean it should be ignored and assumed as a mistake. How many pre-production cars did they make? They just simply couldn't realistically make enough cars to show off all of the different examples of each package. My only speculation is that it is unknown which package turned aluminum comes with. It's irresponsible to claim or speculate otherwise.
^^^ Exactly ^^^
That was my nonsensical error, not yours. I speculated such and it clearly offended and was in fact irresponsible of me. Tongue and cheek fully intentional!
