First Road Trip..Impressions

[Noble1]

Took our first road trip:

We have a 50th anniversary package Ecoboost Premium.

Only negative: no lumbar support adjustment on passenger seat.

Positives:
* The BLISS system worked great...about have to trust due to large blind spot
* Sync system is much improved over our 2011 F-150 Lariat...actually works
well
* Engine performance was more than adequate...performed very well
* Like the smaller steering wheel
* Suspension and steering were spot on
* Fuel mileage was decent; top highway was 35; usually 34
* Found touch display easy to use
* Ambient lighting is cool
* Mustang projection lights are great
* Seats are very comfy even without lumbar on passenger seat; backseat
seats were cramped as expected
* Nav. system easy to use...spot on
* Combined fuel economy was 28
* Many positive comments and "once overs"
* Rear view camera projected path even when turning
* Large trunk; rear seats folding flat

FIRST rock chip!

Can any Indiana folks (or Big 10 Fans) determine location?

Nice car, thanks for the impression. Sucks about the first chip though...I know the feeling. Had my 14 Lariat for 3 weeks and a rock got me on the hood AND the windshield as well!

Did you calculate the mileage, or is that what the car told you?

Thanks for the review. Please keep us updated as you spend more time with it.

We did not calculate mathematically. I have done that in the past and I have always found that the car is very close.

All reading were done via on board computer.

Was this your reaction when you saw the paint chip?

I should get that, but last time I priced it it was about $800.
