    Finally!! After nine months!! My ST is here!

    Every car I bought was on the lot for me to drive. Most times I waited no more than 3 hours before I got it.

    Anyone get frustrated with people thinking you are a cop?

    Where I live local LEO's use black, and our State Police use another dark color. So Iconic Silver literally means nothing in that regard to people in my area. I get passed with astonishing regularity, which is fine by me! No offense, but that is one of the dumbest things I ever heard of. Not...

    Rattle Diagnosed: Not what you think ...

    Okay, not "fixed." A few days after I picked it up, I heard the same rattling again. Going back to dealer soon for another look. We're in a heat wave, and when then temps are in the 90's I don't hear it. But as soon as it "cools" down to the 70's and 80's, the rattle comes back. I'm thinking...

    Don't want to be confused with LEO'S? Get one in Iconic Silver, people pass me all the time. Lol

    Back up 10 ft please! Need a pic of the whole vehicle with those wheels.

    Rattle Diagnosed: Not what you think ...

    Repair completed! They kindly gave me a mainstream 22 Explorer as a loaner car (was 2 days in their shop). The first thing I noticed was it's thin steering wheel, really didn't like it at all.

    POLL: OEM 20" or 21" Wheels

    Thanks for the info. I'm guessing a same day back-to-back acceleration test of the 20" and 21" wheels is the only way we'd really know for sure.

    Premium gasoline

    C&D tested 4 cars with Prem vs. Reg fuel: https://www.caranddriver.com/features/a28565486/honda-cr-v-vs-bmw-m5-ford-f-150-dodge-charger/ Good news is 3 of the 4 cars showed no appreciable difference, the bad news is the one that did suffer from Reg fuel was the Ford Ecoboost.

    What's everyone's drive mode?

    Same here. If I wanted to drive "Eco", I would've bought a Maglite-On-Wheels.

    What's everyone's drive mode?

    Okay, it has to be the tune then as I also drive in a spirited manner. The formula remains unchanged: More HP = More Air + More Fuel

    Ford to cut 8,000 jobs

    Sorry to hear your sister bought into the world wide scam. I'm sure she's a nice person. But sooner or later, people who advocate for that kind of stuff are forced into hypocrisy because that's its natural end. Maglites-On-Wheels are a fantasy, power grids will never be able to handle them, and...

    Hi Ho! Glad to have you here.(y) WARNING: WE TALK ABOUT EXPLORER ST'S A LOT. I MEAN SERIOUSLY, A LOT. :cool:

    Ford to cut 8,000 jobs

    Can't believe that many people stand to lose their jobs over interest in batteries-on-wheels. Not right. 97% of all vehicles in the world are ICE because no wants to waste time charging their ride. Plus, no country has a sufficient power grid to handle them. The whole thing is a complete scam...

    What's everyone's drive mode?

    I'm 100% Sport Mode and I'm getting a very consistent 20 mpg combined.(y) P.S. What is this "Eco" mode people are talking about? ;)

    Steeda Police Interceptor

    Exactly. From a safety standpoint, it's not about who pays for the repair, it's about the potential danger of something breaking while on a pursuit. "5,000 posts" Lol But the 3.3L PIU's are getting the bushing and axle cover replaced.
