  1. I saw a pic of this symbol the other day, and have tried researching it and have found nothing. What was it used for and when? Thanks!
  2. Thanks...the wording is very poor and makes it seem like it doesn't.
  3. I was on build and price, looking at focus titaniums, and I noticed that the navigation didn't say if it had sony sound system. Most of fords other cars come with both when you check the nav box, does the focus? Thanks!
  4. Oh ok...that kinda sucks. When is the next refresh? Thanks!
  5. Does the MKS come with or available option for the "Active Contour Seats" or massaging seats? You can get the Taurus with them...why not the MKS?
  6. I noticed the Fx4 lux package and the Lariat premium package include remote starts, does the king ranch and platinum have that standard or is it not available? Thanks!
  7. My mom is looking at a fusion or edge in the next couple of months hopefully....and we were wondering how good an AWD Fusion...probably a sport performs in the snow? Its a big consideration for us as we do a lot of mountain pass driving. Would the extra ground clearance on the edge make is better snow vehicle over the fusion? Thanks!
  8. Congrats Nick!! I love the new edges...and the sports are amazing looking. Have you had to do any ice or snow driving? If so how did the pirellis handle in that? Thanks!!
  9. Or the 312 hp mustang v6? Oh well, I'm not gonna complain at least it went in Ford's favor. I also think that the 2011 F-150 should be on there as well....4 all new engines, one twin turbo v6.
  10. I voted no, but one day after all the lineups in both Ford and Lincoln are brought up to class leading standards and are solidly profitable. Also after the economy rebounds...not much sense trying to sell 150k car, when people aren't wanting to buy 15k car. Ummm...I agree with Borg, the escape is in need of a definate refresh at the very least, compared to every ford vehicle except for the ranger and current focus it feels very dated.
  11. Well as a freshmen in college, I guess I would be considered that generation that doesn't like cars..but I am one big exception to that. That being said, I love this car, and would buy it asap! But I would like to see the power upto about 275 as well.
  12. Yeah I too would be very interested in a smaller than an F-150 but bigger than a Ranger truck. Call it the F-100 and add it into the F-Series sales totals.
  13. We have a 2001 Focus with almost 160k and it still runs awesome.I think it must have been 00 that had all the recalls, our 01 has had like one or two... It is still tight and will hang with newer cars in the twistys. Other than needing to replace the original stock shocks, it drives like new. We have been super impressed with it and my grandma and aunt both bought focus's on our reccomendation, and countless other fords..I can't wait for the new focus, and plan on replacing ours with a 2013 sedan.
  14. I know my little dealer already has had 2 customer orders, one for a GT and one for a GT-500. I am not sure what they have ordered for stock.
  15. Haha thats funny, I was thinking wow, Focus sure does kill the cruze in the looks dept. But that Focus is beautiful! That is heads and tails above what I thought it would be! Awesome job, now get the ecoboost in ASAP!
  16. I was at my local dealer the other day, and was looking around and noticed that they had "Racecraft" Mustangs, by Saleen. They are brand new 08 MY cars, with a supercharger. They put out 420 hp. They also had an upgraded 485 hp version w/ a super shaker. My question is what is a racecraft and are they rare?? They seemed really cheap, probably because they were left over 08's that they want gone!! Here is some pics from the dealers website 2008 420s upgraded super shaker 485 hp and custom leather: $35,999 http://www.pioneerford.net/new_vehicle_det...4bb0&bhcp=1 2008 420s- 420 hp.: $29,991 http://www.pioneerford.net/new_vehicle_det...08e690a2f1d4d60 2008 420s- with tinted windows- $30,991 http://www.pioneerford.net/new_vehicle_det...0f92541d5f1791a They are really awesome cars, and seem like a great value! But what do you guys know about them?
  17. I love your flex, with the edge sport 22's, they should build that from the factory!! I dont see the point in a unibody explorer, it seems to me like it would overlap with the edge and flex to much. I think they have the perfect line up now. If anything put the new 3.7L engine in it and then the ecoboos 3.5L and leave it the way it is, and get better fuel mileage.
  18. My dad and I were in town today and drove by about five fiestas sitting in a parking lot, and so of course we went to check them out and they happened to be giving test drive so we drove two different ones. First was a 1.4L 4 spd auto select shift w/ 95 hp cloth interior: Very nice looking and different than anything else, just as roomy and comfortable as our focus in a smaller more effiecient package, they drive them all over the country and have been getting 40+ mpg. Very well laid out interior w/ cool stuff, like rain sensing wipers, proxiemty key,push button start. For such a small engine it had good power and was just as fast as our focus and handled way better. Second was a 1.6L 5 spd manual w/ 120 hp loaded: Looked the same, didn't like the green apple color, but has very nice black leather interior with soft touch plastics all around, again really cool tech goodies, and everything you would need in a car. The 1.6 w/ a manual flat out scooted much faster than the focus w/ a 0-60 time in about 7 sec. i would say. Very good off the line power and it still handles awesomely. In talking to the guy he said the 1.6L will be the only aviable engine here with a both the auto and manual, and he said it will likely be equipped with a 4 cyl ecoboost!!! The only thing we felt needed to be fixed was the shifter area intruded into the drivers area a little to much, no arm rests, and small cup holders. Apprentaly they are having to run it with 92 (because of it being a euro spec car.) octane, which I hope they make it run off good ol 87. Overall I think ford has a winner on there hands. Sorry for the lack of pics as I didn't know they were around here.
  19. Congrats!!!!! I am very jealous!!! Did you get the performance package I don't remember the specific package #?
  20. According to Fords website they are going to be releasing details about a performance series of Taurus's in Feb of 2009!! Can anyone say SHO with Ecoboost!!
  21. I also really like it! It will probably be my moms next car!! Great job Ford!!
  22. Does anyone else think that the headlights look like the current gen fusions? Overall I like the 10' Fusion more.
  23. Thats what I thought, $42,000 is msrp and $36,000 is after rebates and all that.
  24. Heres another picture of the Racecraft Focus
  25. Have you guys heard of these mustangs, there made by Racecraft by Saleen, they have upgraded suspension, interior, wheels, body kit, tires and of course exhuast and Supercharger. Producing 420 Hp and 400 ft lbs. for $40,000, and it qualifies for all Ford rebates and incentives. Here is a link to there website: www.racecraftcars.com
