I have the same on my FE. Really bothers me, canāt not stare. Going to suck it up and hope some where down the line painted tops will be available to replace it with. Iām relieved to see itās not just me, and that is a real thing.
I flew out from NY to WV to drive mine home, about 600 miles in one day. It was worth every effort! I got to meet the wonderful people at Stephens Auto Center, and make a face to face handshake with the men and women who made my purchase a breeze and bargain. A memorable and enjoyable experience...
True. It would bite to be the unwitting QC tester for an unproven product, like say a top that delaminates... MIC top looks terrible on FEs. Black painted grill, black painted mirror caps, black door window guides, and some faded gray top...it was conceived for the FE for heaven sakes.
I KNOW FEs are 2021, I KNOW MOD tops are in development, I KNOW FEs only come with hardtops, I KNOW I should feel lucky to be getting my FE this year (I do, and sympathize)... if Ford is listening, and we can float some good ideas their way, then this is it. A crummy alternative top for their...
Just found this thread. I posted the same thoughts! I totally agree! I KNOW FEs are 2021, I KNOW MOD tops are in development, I KNOW FEs only come with hardtops, I KNOW I should feel lucky to be getting my FE this year (I do, and sympathize)... if Ford is listening, and we can float some good...
Now that Ford has hit the pause button to fix the hardtop issues, why wouldnāt the MOD top be available for the FE/WT builds? The ones that have already been delivered need their tops replaced anyway. I suggest they slowdown (as they already have) and look back at the issues created by steaming...
Wait! Ford is on here!?! āMr. Automotive manufacturer, where in the holy wild hell is the pull out tailgate? Just throw is a bone. Itās the least you can do, slowly drop some of the accessories you sold us on LAST YEAR to keep us placated!ā
I am not going to lie, I love the official Ford emails with images and links. It helps me get āmarketed toā. I am just seriously pissed, no.... LIVID! WHERE IS MY M-Fān PULLOUT TAILGATE!!! Huh?... Ford advertised the hell out of that on the BB fishing rig and then .... poof! Gone! I could give...
Ford needs to suck it up and admit they overreached trying to sell a āconceptā as a final product. Just keep plugging away at development and give us the real deal in ā22.
As a FE reserve-er I would love to see as many FEās order the modular painted tops...theoretically that would push all...
