I haven't seen one on the road yet. I test drove one and saw two at a dealer (at different times), but that's it. If you take 10,000 vehicles (assuming that many have even been shipped, but maybe not) divided by 50 states, it's 200 per state. We have 67 counties, so using this poorly constructed...
I was thinking of this, but realistically, given our winters, I don't want to be dealing with a soft top for 2-3 years until something else is available, or Ford is making enough of them to meet production demand / catchup / warranty (maybe?) AND off-the-shelf units for everyone that switched to...
Good points. The aircraft's effective life will be decades however. Yes the costs are not comparable, but from a standpoint of a vehicle, I wasn't implying that they were the same, but merely that this concept is used in other applications and one shouldn't jump to conclusions about this...
Right, need to be careful about the material of the honeycomb and its properties. There are a variety of materials used for that. A lot of those sheets are made by making a stack of the sheets which include stripes of glue (kind of like lined notebook paper) . After stacking it's put on a high...
No, me either. Still scheduled for production the week of 8/2 though, but I've got a 4D with MIC Top (ugh)...
We'll see if that holds true over the next couple weeks...
Don't worry... You exist! Your country borders my state (Pennsylvania)! Of course Lake Erie is in between and the border is only 42 miles (or 68 km in your units)... But we are proud to be one of 12 states to be your direct neighbor. We even have Tim Hortons! 😁
I agree, good way to keep your mind off the wait. Once you get it, you'll be ready to take another great trip!
Thought you'd be interested in this trip made in an early 60's era Ford Fairlane in 1966 from Philadelphia to Alaska by my grandparents... It was all gravel at that time. My father...
You're exactly right... I have a VW with frameless windows. On that, just pull the handle a little to activate the window sequence before opening the door. It only takes milliseconds of a pause (you get used to it). Other people opening the passenger door don't do it sometimes, but in that case...
I'm going to pretend that the reveal actually happened on 7/13/21, I just reserved, and got notification for production build week of 8/2, and suddenly in that moment, I will have been waiting only 3 weeks! :sneaky:
FYI, here is the page from the Owner's Manual related to the power outlets. Also, I didn't see anything about a manual switch or fuse position that changes the power outlet operational state.
Since you're on the verge of delivery, I'm interested in how long it will take to get to the dealer from the production day. I've seen others in our region get theirs in about 1 week. Mine is scheduled for the week of 8/2 and I'm working on a "guesstimate" for mine. It might be like predicting...
