Agreed on all points. But the allocation section really really really needs to be flushed down the fucking toilet. These need to be as close to "sold by Ford" as possible, and the allocation process is the anathema of that.
I visited a few months ago just to shake Albert's hand and the lot is plenty big enough for what they need.
In with the rest, A+ communication.
Not entirely sure why I didn't get a build sheet or email from Ford, but I think thats just a '22 thing?
I got a day 1 or 2 of MY16 Mustang by ordering. Exactly what I wanted. I found a leftover '17 F-150 to lease 2 years later, turned it in for a used '12 escape to ride be over until the bronco arrives. I barely prefer ordering and getting exactly what you want.
2wd will be the rear axle.
With open differentials when it's in 4wd both axles will get power. But in low traction situations, if a wheel spins that wheel will get all the power and the other won't be pushing at all. Locking differentials lock the wheels on that axle together, so if one spins...
I just did a quick and dirty quote with Progressive, and it did the same for me. Slight decrease, even adding comprehensive, compared to my '12 Escape.
Not what do you expect, but "if I get at least [x], I'll be satisfied/happy". Talking calculated from the pump number, not the indicated.
On the 2.7L, I think 18-19 would be satisfied, and 20 would be happy. You? My Mustang got 15mpg, my truck got 16, so 18-19 would be a nice improvement.
