Occasionally, the site/server/app seems strained. I post something, wait and nothing displays. I learned to first post as always. If not seen in a reasonable time, I then click the "forums" tab. I could tell by the icons my post was there. The hesitation, when it is occurring, I do not see...

Maybe it has to do with being in the great state of Colorado *, but I've not witnessed anything negative with EVs during Winter. YMMV. Safety. Occasionally during the Winter, I will encounter temperatures as cold as -10F / -23C. I routinely leave my cell phone in my truck. People leave their...

Touch'e. I tip my hat to you Sir. Doesn't seem right, but yes, it is part of the overall design to vent. https://dealer.parts.ford.com/shop/en/us/electrical/other-lighting-parts/headlight-housing-vent-valve-front-p-am5z13c126a Edit: the vents are there to help with changes in air pressure...

Regarding the comments of the headlights, I'd consider getting the issue evaluated and documented. They should maintain a good seal and should not have moisture inside. The lens assemblies are not cheap. Nice to get them replaced for free under warranty.

Sorry about what happened. My initial read of the damage described does not concern me too much. It's a special car you've been waiting for. I can empathize with that. I'm more bothered by two things: 1) the dealer wasn't up-front about what happened, how the car was received, when the car was...

It seems you're dealing with two issues: 1. An allocation. If the dealer was unable to secure an allocation from April to late October, I'd begin looking towards other dealers. Houston is the third or fourth largest city in the nation and a huge market. Maybe another dealer. If not Houston, San...

https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/dark-horse-order-fail-news-letter-from-ford.159369/ I notice you referenced an HP build. You might already be aware of this issue, but if not, the link could help. Many of us were under the impression that HP orders would be paused and pick up again the...

It's going to be difficult, if not impossible, to find A/S or Winter tire in that width. I swapped to different rims and tires on my '22. The immediate benefit is obvious: I can find tires of any kind to match the condition. A secondary benefit is preserving the factory original rims. To help...

Not to be upsetting, but there could be body or mechanical damage. In transit, the car is Ford's. Any issues will be discussed and handled between Ford corporate and the shippers. The dealer will not have insight of any kind. Extensive delays could involve insurance claims, Ford discussing the...

In tire characteristics, pro driver opinions and buyer reviews, they're very close to one another. I can't see one going wrong selecting either tire. IMO, it's a coin toss. :idea: If you can buy one set cheaper than the other, so much the better. :thumbsup:

I can't remember seeing one before where selecting the color of the text was an option. Nice. :thumbsup:

I had a wide variety of burning smells that first ride home, yes. Assembly lubes and sealers. New, unweathered materials. Countless hands all over the mechanicals during assembly, shipment and final inspection. The burning smells occurred while bringing the car up to its operating temperature...

Ceratec is an appreciated and widely-used additive. Many use it from first oil change forward without issue. For those in your warranty period, and with the Gen4 being in year one, it might be in your best interest to not add anything to the engine oil until the factory warranty has expired. In...

Somewhat nearby in CO. From built to shipped was four days. From shipped to arrival took nine. With another two days for off-loading, inspection, documents, etc. Chat up your dealer now, ask them to recover the build sheet from inside the car, if you'd like it. Once the car is built at the...

I changed mine shortly after 1,000 mi / 1,600 km. Leftovers from factory machining and assembly, along with break-in material, are present. I've had oil analysis performed on the first and now second oil changes. There's something of a flushing effect which occurs with those changes, to remove...

During Ford's last reporting, their earnings were a bit lower than expected. Ford announced they were slow-walking some EV investments. Otherwise, they were OK. Looking at their latest financials, Ford has $45B sitting in cash and short-term investments. The company most recently generated a...

I stand corrected. It reads like Ford Canada is one of the few who does not. I suspect to help protect peoples' privacy and reduce unsolicited and unwanted e-mails.

Yes, Ford does. You should receive a confirmation e-mail from Ford within 24 hours. Most receive confirmation within a few moments of the order going in. I received mine within an hour. Some reasons for not receiving: - The Dealer input your e-mail incorrectly - The Dealer input their e-mail...

Genuinely sorry to read that. I believe virtually all of us simply expected HP orders to rollover into 2024 and be built in the Spring. Maybe a quick confirmation from the Dealer, "Yes! Customer still wants!" Ford is an multi-billion dollar, international company. Seems like they could do...
