Hi everyone, greetings from west-central Wisconsin! Been a lurker here for a couple months now and finally decided to join.
I picked up my brand new Area 51 First Edition about a week ago (pictured) and absolutely love it. This is my first time ever purchasing a "brand new" vehicle. My last few have been lightly used Fusions. The wife and I both now WFH and have wanted to have a better "winter-capable" vehicle for quite some time so we downsized and traded both of our vehicles in for this beauty. It has the cargo management system.
So far I've added the following accessories:
Floor Mats
Cargo Liner
Rear Bumper Guard
Window Deflectors
Hood Deflector
Splash Guards
Door Sill Scuff Plates
Sunshade
Hitch Plug
I have replacement LED lights for the tail on order and on their way and I have appointments for upcoming dash cam and front window/sun strip tint install.
I'm also currently waiting on magnaflow to release their street exhaust as I will be upgrading that.
My only real complaint is the lack of Assist+, but as I've never had it before I'm not really missing anything as of yet. My biggest issue is that there seems to be almost nowhere to take this thing off-road around here. Might hit up some state parks/forests in the area to see what I can find, but otherwise looks like I'll be waiting for winter to really test the GOAT modes.
