TTQ B4U Posted December 1, 2012 Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 We have a 2.0l Turbo Titanium Edition in the near future for the wife. I rented one recently and it was damn nice. Albeit not as Hot as the 1.6l version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMeanGreen Posted December 1, 2012 Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 My company vehicle is a 2013 Escape SE w/ 1.6T. It was delivered four months late due to two OTHER recalls that needed addressed before delivery. Between this and Ford trying to bury our Mustang by trying to dodge repairing the MT-82, they can kiss my ass. Yeah, no wonder they didn't take bailout money. They saved money by fucking their customers over with their shitty quality and even worse "customer service". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Jones Posted December 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 I've been hearing more and more bad stories from people who purchased newer Mustangs lately. Yeah, I tried to wright a lot of it off as people trying to warranty 10 second cars and the like, because I really like them in a way. The more I hear, the more I cringe..

Aaron Posted December 1, 2012 Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 Yeah, I tried to wright a lot of it off as people trying to warranty 10 second cars and the like, because I really like them in a way.

This was all over the Ford and general car forums about 2 months after they released the new 2011 mustangs. A friend of mine got a 2012 Shelby GT this past week and I went to look at the car yesterday. The seats are awesome! But that's the only thing that really gave me a "wow this is awesome" reaction and I'll bet it will be spending some time at the Ford dealership in the future.

I was going to buy a new Ecoboost F- 150 and then decided I would buy a Focus ST as well. They gave me a real solid price on the F- 150 ( I get the x-plan if that even matters ) I wasn't really going to try and BS over the price of the ST much because of how the dealers think they have gold. I was ready to fork up the cash and suddenly the price jumped 2k on the F-150 because I wasn't going to finance. They refused to make something work without financing. Fuckers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
