Check with local, county offices where you live. When I was considering an out-of-state purchase (NV-to-CO), I reached out to my DMV. They directly cited the law, provided me with forms, explained what I would pay and gave me options as to how to pay. It was good way to grease the skids. I'm...

I have Recaros and love them. Fit and appearance is excellent. Very comfortable. I felt they were worth it. I wanted an enthusiasts' seat in fit and finish, with weight reduction (non-electric, no heating, no cooling).

I'm surprised as well. I'd have thought Ford would have already fed a 650 to at least a handful of reviewers to get some feedback posted and pique interest. Maybe they have a timeline, but we're just not there yet. The Order Guide, as published now, does not list the RSD as an option.

People do trade-in and trade-up all the time, are happy with and enjoy their cars. Good on them. But doing so often hands all the advantages to the dealer, who wins on both sides of the trade. If financing with that dealer is involved, even more so. Dealer wants and accepts a person's trade-in...

The numbers I posted are the real numbers, as part of the required Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings, using Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). You can double-check any of Ford's financials by looking at the SEC filings or the Ford web site...

A link to an inflation calculator follows: https://www.bls.gov/data/inflation_calculator.htm A link to Ford's financials follows: https://www.cnbc.com/quotes/F?tab=financials Revenue was $155B in 2019, took dips in 2020, 2021, then recovered in 2022, to $158B. Ford has spent $7B on R&D each...

The Gas Guzzler tax has its origins in the 1970s, from the Feds and EPA. It is related to mileage standards. Cars not meeting certain mileage standards are taxed accordingly.

Larger dealers have Internet Sales and the floor folks. They often do not work together directly. the dealer I worked with, they were over a 1/4 mile away from one another and rarely interacted. One advantage of Internet Sales is you can set everything up via phone and e-mail, then go in and...

Welcome to the forums. :clap: My experience in 2022... The Gas Guzzler tax, $1000, is charged by the Feds. The Mach 1 was subject to this tax. I'd expect it on the DH. I can't speak to other models. Destination and delivery, $1395, was charged by Ford, in '22. You can clarify with the dealer...

https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/your-dealership-does-have-allocation-for-your-sold-order-not-shelby.154821/ A bit more detail, but things may have changed. I will defer to @Granger Ford for the latest insight.

I can appreciate your concerns, but it generally comes down to the points above. To the Alfa in-particular, it's: 1) available in May, 2) an SUV, 3) a hybrid/EV (or offers those options). Plus, like supermarkets and other shops, MotorTrend and other platforms receive something for their...

I can think of a few reasons for lack of ads on TV: 1. The car is not yet available. You can't walk in and see it. Ford has not announced pricing, changed its web site or produced an Order Guide. 2. Advertising has changed over time. Before YouTube and all other media platforms, you paid to...

A high-quality wrap is probably the best option for this MY. Gloss could be awesome. Matte anyone? I've seen some great matte wraps in different hues. If you can wait, Ford might rotate to that color, in later MYs. IMO, you'd have to be a high roller, with both $$$ and influence. Jackson of...

I wasn't familiar with the Particulate Filters (PF) referenced earlier. Attached is an article I found helpful on what they are, where installed and their effects. Went through a few EU forums, many enthusiasts attempting work-arounds to recover a more authentic sound...

Early '22, I received an e-mail from Ford that my build was scheduled for production; this afforded me two things: 1. There was a near guarantee from Ford the car would be built 2. A VIN was assigned and listed in that notification The car was later built in May. If it helps towards lining...

Being a new mark, I foresee some delays. New and old parts. New engine. New fitment. While not as severe, continuing supply chain issues. I would definitely anticipate waiting, but how much, whose to say. Some advantages though. The S650 is just starting, so even if things go absolutely...

In MY22, there were no production limits of any kind (My comments are not considering the GT500). There were delays, due to lack of parts, but no "1 of x" builds. I have not read anything of limits in MY23 and have not read/heard anything related to limits for MY24...

From the dealer perspective, it's straightforward. Once Ford opens the order banks, it's like visiting any other web site to buy something. Ford's pricing (dealer and customer), model, options, etc., are all there. The salesperson clicks-off what is being asked for, takes your personal...

Age, driving record, credit rating, if rolling into an existing insurer, zip code, if financing or not, if parked in a garage, are just some of the factors. In the 6G forum, someone started a thread like this for Mach 1s. People were averaging "around" 1000-1200 a year for full coverage...
