It took me about 2 days of driving to get use to the position change.

So while my vehicle is in the shop after getting run into by a hippy in a Subaru driving down the shoulder of the road causing 4500 worth of damage to my car ...they have me a 17 EcoBoost to drive

Why oh why Ford did you reverse the steering wheel controls!! How many times will I change the gauges instead of the volume??


As far as the cars... was getting 21.5 mpg in the 18 gt ..getting 26.5 in the EcoBoost

No v8 sounds but turbo noises are cool with the windows down. Could definitely use some shorter gears in the rear end though.

Overall not a bad car...even chirps the tires into 2nd afyer I filled up with 91 octane and the computer adjusted. Even with the old 6a I can see how others would enjoy driving this car.

33k miles on it ...rental car miles...no creaks or rattles car has held up well.

Will do some 0 to 60 tests this weekend since #notmytires :cheers:

Having owned Ford's for decades the steering wheel function move on the Mustang was driving me crazy, I kept hitting the wrong buttons but I am getting used to it now.

EDIT: Then I get into my '16 Edge and hit the wrong buttons again.

No kidding. When someone asks me about MPG’s, I’m like: Pfft! Who cares?
I got this car for smiles per gallon not miles per gallon.
