No, I understand temperature and weather and climate. My F-150 has a block heater, but it doesn't have summer performance tires that are generally a bad idea below 40 F.
What I suggested is that it is a rare instance where someone would order the two options together, so Ford made a decision...
I will be honest. I have already invested the maximum amount of time I plan to put toward this. If I wanted an engine block heater on my car, I'd crawl under the car and figure it out.
I suspect there are very, very few people ordering a performance package that includes summer only tires along with an engine block heater. They need to draw the line somewhere about what is offered from the factory.
I don't know who you mean when you say "Ford Staff". Nobody at the dealer...
Well, that kinda makes sense they wouldn't cover a power train issue. Why exactly are people mad and who are these mad people? It was either tracked or not. Where it was when it finally failed is not relevant. ²
Nobody was born knowing how to operate a manual transmission. You learned how to tie your shoes I assume. It would take 10 minutes to a half hour in a parking lot and be second nature the rest of your life.
6500? I can spend money with the best of us, but that's a bridge too far for me.
@topdawg4ever Did you hesitate at all or was it just a F-it, I want them moment?
A dealer, whether it's smart business or not, owns the cars and can make whatever decision they want about test drives, sitting in, or touching the cars. How many threads are on the forum with people losing their minds because a new car has more than 5 miles at delivery?
That said, if you...
That's true. Everyone knows the correct response would be to make a dramatic YouTube video with a sketchy clickbait title asking if it was some sort of discrimination.
I dropped a picture in a few threads but will create this for any questions, etc.
Ordered on Feb 24th and landed at my MI dealer in a little under 12 weeks. It of course side-stepped any NPP constraints since the roof doesn't need the offline black paint process.
Dark Matter Gray, PP...
I didn't say it was bad, it was a reference to the theme of not noticing things. Too subtle maybe?
Maybe it's generational, I just don't get the whole "documenting the drama in my life online" thing.
No, that's not what happened. They were obviously flipped up and Mustang is hardly the only vehicle that is susceptible to this kind of event.
And all the comments about "stupidity" are a bit harsh. If you work on cars, things will happen.
