Expensive shiny rocks are worn out in view where people can see them. Engine covers are hidden under the hood. Nobody sees them.

Before these engine cover threads started, you couldn't have ever convinced me that such a meaningless item is important to so many.

It gives you the peace of mind that your BS is everything that it can be. It will help you sleep better at night. It will help you see Ford and your Ford dealer in a better light. Your friends and neighbors will hold you in higher esteem than the lowly non-engine cover peasants. It just makes...

Oh the humanity! ????

Pics are taken too close. I need some from a little farther away to get a better overview of the aesthetics.

"People like me" = people that don't sweat the small shit Life's too short.

I have a bike rack that goes into the receiver and if it was leaning one way or the other, it wouldn't make any difference to me. But that's just me. I'm not looking for perfection and it wouldn't be worth the hassle to me to get this 'flaw' replaced. Get a perfectly level receiver and park on...

This thread is like the Jelly-of-the-month club.

I guess I should have opted for the more expensive Badlands with the bigger engine so I could get better mileage than I am on this "underpowered" 3 cylinder. ?

I'll second that. You wanted that moonroof really bad to let them cut on your brand new vehicle.

I hope the "stop worrying" wasn't directed at me. I was just adding info to the stuff I've been reading on here. This recall doesn't bother me in the least. I'll drive it the way it is indefinitely.

Just got a recall notice from Ford in the mail. This clears everything up. LOL It doesn't say anything about front or rear brakes. It only mentions "parts".

Although I agree with some of the things you listed, I personally wouldn't say anything here about it. It's their vehicle and they can do whatever they want to it to make them happy. Yes, they post the pictures on here so they open themselves up to other's opinions but I feel it's best to let...

Was wondering the same thing myself.

He has the Outer Banks. It has a different display than your Big Bend.

Maybe for the small minority of enthusiasts. The majority of average owners don't give a crap about what the engine looks like hidden under the hood. They don't see it. They don't change oil or perform any type of maintenance. They don't open the hood, somebody else does.

I had to go out and check to see if I have this button or not. Nothing I use so I didn’t know. What do you know? It’s there. I suppose this thread will grow to over 600 posts like the engine cover one with a number of owners outraged at the fact that they don’t have it. BTW I have the engine...

Two of your vehicles have been hit by falling bullets shot into the air by random people? You have to have the worst luck of anyone. What are the odds of it even happening once? That sucks.

That's the funny thing. The manufacturer of the vehicle, Ford, has deemed it not important since they no longer equip newer 1.5s with it. Hood closed. Not a problem. Hood open. 'Problem' for a select few. Happy New Year to you too.
