Took my Cyber Orange FE to Carmax a little over a week ago to see what they would give for it. I bought it mid Feb and it has almost 15k on the odo. They looked it over w/o taking it for a test ride and about 15 mins after they were done I had an offer of $42k, which is $2k more than I paid for...
Has anyone ever sold their BS back to a dealer? If so how was your experience?
I have a Cyber Orange FE that I'm considering replacing, there isn't anything wrong w/it, it's just not exactly what I am looking for.
Thanks!
At some point I plan on bumping up the Wildpeaks on my FE to 245/65/17 but in addition to bigger tires I’d really like to widen the stance. I’ve thought about some 16” steel wheels w/a negative offset but I don’t know if any are available.
I’d be interested in any feedback or info that anyone...
Both of my lift gate LEDs have "popped" out of their mounts. They aren't hanging out but their range of motion is limited because they are now binding. It looks like I could probably work them back in on my own but I don't want to break them by forcing it, so I'm just going to have the dealer...
Found some mud holes today in the middle of George Washington National Forest (WV). FE/BL did just fine but there was a split second in the last one that I thought it might not make it but it kept going!
So I saw my first "big" Bronco yesterday and it felt a lot like meeting my girlfriend's much hotter sister. I kept telling myself to stay away from her because while I know that she's a lot more fun I also know that she's high maintenance and would ultimately cost me an arm & a leg.
Had the hood on my FE wrapped with XPEL paint protection film today in addition I had the sunroof tinted w/35% ceramic tint to reduce the amount of light and heat that was coming through it. I typically keep it closed because it makes the interior too hot and too bright, but not anymore...
I don't know if this is in the works or not but I would be surprised if Ford didn't offer a hybrid BS next year. Just seems to make sense to me and I'm sure it would help sell even more of them. Time will tell I'm sure.
I'm going to have the hood on my Cyber Orange FE wrapped in XPEL to help protect it from the inevitable stone chips that I know are in it's future. But I'm thinking about going w/a satin wrap because like some others have noted the shape of the hood can send glare from the sun directly into your...
Does anyone know if the OEM crossbars will fit on a late model Escape? My FE came w/them and I plan on installing something different so I'll probably sell the OEM ones.
Thanks!
The dealer neglected to leave me the Allen wrench so I could adjust the cross bars. I know that it's a security bit (which I need to buy) but I don't know what size it is.
Any chance that someone here might now?
Thanks!
When I decided to get a BS I didn't set my sights on an FE, I wanted a BL but it just so happened that a nearby dealer had an FE on order that had (almost) everything that I wanted. The thing is; I really do not like the decals on the sides or the hood (I prefer a cleaner look), so I'm thinking...
If you're looking to protect your door sills from getting scratched and beat up I've found something that works well, is inexpensive, and looks OEM.
Rubberized Non-Skid Safety Tape, $17.95 from Amazon. There was more than enough for all four doors and can be easily replaced if need be.
I've had my FE for a week today, my previous vehicle was a Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG (big difference) and after a week there are a few things that I would change if I could and I would have been OK w/it costing a little more to have these included.
*For the record I didn't order my BS, it was a...
It seems that a fair number of us have received ship dates of 2/16 with various ETAs so I thought I would create post where we could track actual deliveries so it will
I'll go first.
Ship Date: 2/16
ETA End Date: 3/13
Destination: Rochester, NY
Sorry about the potential noob question and especially sorry if it's been answered already but I'm not having any luck finding a real answer.
Yesterday the date changed on my window sticker changed from 2/6/21 to 2/24/21 and palsapp tells me that the origin is Buffalo, NY and the status is...
