    What did you pay for your ST

    I paid $56,209 OTD yesterday with 72mo 0% and 3 months deferred, which didn’t make me eligible for the extra $2500 in rebates, otherwise I would’ve been OTD at $53,700. I‘m in VA, so my OTD price included sales tax of $2200 (4.2%), and they don’t cap dealer processing fees, so $799 for that...

    What did you pay for your ST

    You don’t have auto sales tax in NH, right? Did you get the twin panel moonroof?

    Wireless CarPlay

    It certainly helps, but nothing is going to sound as clean as wired CarPlay.

    New owner Sport mode/ turbo very underwhelming

    What specifically about the tranny is your issue? I’m on my second ST, and finally found one that doesn’t lurch when coming to a stop in sport mode. Only two that I’ve test driven didn’t behave like this, the other being the one I mentioned above with the O2 issues. I have to admit though...

    New owner Sport mode/ turbo very underwhelming

    Interested in whether this changed for you. I’ve test driven probably 8 or 9 STs, and each one had it’s quirk. One in particular had some kind of issue with the air intake or manifold, it sounded loud, and the vehicle felt like it was lagging power. Another that I test drove the other day...

    Has anyone reached out to Ford for the 3-month differed payment?

    Just got 72mo 0% with 3 months deferred on my new one today. Beats my 84mo 3.5% I previously had.

    Soooooooo that was quick. Totaled...

    Well, picked up my new one today. Ended up going with Magnetic Grey, and absolutely love it. I agree with the black being difficult to keep clean, and in my opinion, since the grey is so dark, it’s kind of a happy medium.

    Lease information (how much /month and how much down)?

    How muc did you finance? What were the rest of the terms?

    Did you purchase a GAP insurance policy?

    I had it for $4/month through progressive, and just used it... worth it in my opinion!

    What did you pay for your ST

    Did that include any down payment? What rebates did you get for that? I tried like 10 dealers in the area and the lowest they dropped from 59,620 MSRP was 8-9k. That would’ve been about 54k OTD (taxes, tags, fees etc)

    What did you pay for your ST

    Where did you get your from? You mind sharing the window sticker and buyers order?

    Just heard back from the insurance company today, they’re definitely totaling it. So only a matter of days until we‘re back in business.

    Insurance company has the ST now. We’ve gotten used to all the quirks of StormTrooper over the past 3 months, so assuming we find another ST without gremlins, we’ll be back in a new one within a couple weeks. Probably black this time though.

    Much appreciated, everyone. Not ruling it out. First I gotta deal with getting the police report. They didn’t get that guys statement since he was medevac’d out.

    Driving southbound on 95 today with my father in law, a PODS moving truck came veering from the right lane across three lanes of traffic toward us traveling in the left. I broke hard and pulled into to the shoulder, but this guy must’ve lost full control and just slammed straight into us. We...

    Wireless CarPlay

    I ran errands all day back and forth, and noticed my phone connecting inconsistently to the CarPlay2Air. I ended up forgetting the Ford Explorer Bluetooth connection on my iPhone (dropping it from my list of devices), which seems to have cleared it up. So basically I’m forgoing Sync3...

    JMS Chip question

    I’m new to Ford, so unfamiliar with aftermarket brand reliability... I’d like to tune my ST, but don’t want the hassle of denied warranty claims. Coming from Audi, they flagged my last car (TD1, for those familiar) and denied work on failed parts that were granted extended warranty because I...

    Wireless CarPlay

    Just a heads up for those that are looking for a wireless CarPlay solution, I just received my CarPlay2Air unit (carplay2air.com). Bottom line is that it works well in the ST, but didn’t work correctly out of the box. It kept attempting to make an initial connection, never displayed anything...

    Bang & Olufsen Sound Settings

    There’s not really much you can do to tune this thing... Kind of a huge disappointment considering it’s supposed to be “premium”. The sound is terrible. I’m not expecting much from a stock system, but it doesn’t compete with the B&O system or even the lower end concert systems in 10yr old...

    Anyone considering adding aftermarket subwoofers?

    Nice setup! Did you consider doing anything with the stock 8” sub/location?
