  1. While switching to my seasonal rims and tires, I was shocked to find out for the 2023 Lincoln Nautilus they require 162 ft lbs of torque for the lug nuts. That seems excessive and how in the world do they expect one to remove the nuts at the side of a road?
  2. Sorry to hear this. I have a '23 and hope to keep it for 8-10 years. Which Continental rims did yours have?
  3. We are planning a trip where our Lincoln 2023 Nautilus, 2.7 V6, reserve plus the Lincoln Co-Pilot360™ Plus among other options will be sitting for 16 to 17 days. Do I need to worry if the battery will be dead or working during that time of not being driven? The plan is to be back at work the next day.
  4. With "The Large Single Wing Rear Spoiler" I can't help but think of the Super Bird 😄 Where are they going to put it?
  5. And I want to win the Lottery. There's desires and there's science. Look how long the smart phone batteries take to recharge, it sure isn't 20 minutes.
  6. I just miss the days when cars used to have a front bumper. ? A definite 'no' vote on the front grill. Too much a KIA/Hyundai look.
  7. Well, my wife’s 2015 XC70 does have a switch to increase the brightness of the tail lights, for foggy conditions.
  8. So in other words, the same length of time to get my 2023. Ordered Jan 9th, signed the papers May 25th. ?
  9. I too have been enjoying my '23 Reserve I ordered and picked up in May. The 2.7 is extremely fast, and while I try to baby it the best I can, I'm getting between 23 - 28 MPG weekly. Most of the driving into work is down hill and it's fun to see it hit 30 MPG before turning into the parking lot after the tankful... ? I love nearly everything on it except for two things, when I lean into the cargo area, I must be moving enough because the lift gate starts to close with the warning. The other thing, I wish the playing of my USB drive was a little more forgiving. On my previous car I was able to play all the albums from an artist and then it would go down the line to the next and simply keep playing. The Sync 4 will play only one album and need to be told what to do next. Otherwise, I hoping to keep Natie (still working on a name for her), for many, many years. I hope your your team is proud of the work you've done, and hope Ford keeps the Oakville plant for many decades. When the time comes our family needs to purchase the next vehicle, whatever you folks are building will definitely be on my list to check out.
  10. They did that with the Pinto. Nothing drastic on the overall design, but mechanically making improvements along the way. I do hate to hear from those who really don't know, the wagon did not have the rear end gas problem and that the News organization to create the explosion problem had to jack up the front end of the other car to cause the gas tank to break open. I will say, 'Yes, Ford should have never let the car leave the factory without the $65.00 correction part.'
  11. I'm thinking this is going to be Tesla's 'Edsel', or 'Diesel Cadillac.'
  12. To me, that’s taking the touch screen too far. Right now I simply reach and move the vent. I can see taking my eyes off the road too long to change the touch screen menu, decide if I want oscillate or not, then move my finger on the screen, which puts me in a different position to feel the breeze, so I have to repeat the process. I’m, “more buttons for climate controls, not less”.
