    Dear Ford Canada

    1.5% improvement for losing the earning power of $6200 over 4 years doesn't seem like a good trade off. The more I look the harder it is to find anything with a 5,000lb towing capacity in the Canadian market with a decent lease rates. Some aggressive financing for vehicles EOL like the...

    Dear Ford Canada

    I've been patient. Please give me a reasonable lease rate so I may purchase your truck. I do not wish to have wandering eyes but time is running out on my current lease. Thank you,

    MFT - Radio features

    Cool, thanks for the answers. regarding tagging for future purchase - does that work with Sirius? I don't listen to FM as I can hear the same song 9 times a day on my ipod :) . Often on Sirius though there are songs you want to remember for getting later on

    MFT - Radio features

    I can't seem for the life me to find any info on what MFT bring to the table (current or 2nd gen coming out soon) for siradio. - I think you can tag x # of songs so the radio pings you to change the channel when it's playing elsewhere on sirius (is this correct?) - Is there a hard drive...

    Explorer as a towing package

    So so cold in Canada

    I grew up in Ontario. 7 degrees in Feb is patio weather. Good to know this is a common occurance. I'll phone the dealer see if he has the pricing, hopefully the interest rate is a little lower.

    So so cold in Canada

    My apologies, I was in too much pain to think straight when typing that. I long for a clear mind and 2013 order sheet.

    Explorer as a towing package

    I get 4WD verse FWD, what I don't get is how it helps with anything on towing?

    Explorer as a towing package

    holy jeez, I was wrong - in Canada it's $3K for 4WD, that's insane.

    Explorer as a towing package

    not too worried about that, the monthly impact would only be about $20

    Explorer as a towing package

    4WD is a an extra $2500, I don't want to grab it if not needed.

    Explorer as a towing package

    I'd imagine there will be some dirt roads. Nothing like a logging road, but your usual cottage access I'm not real familar with this stuff, can you explain the weight on the tires issue between the FWD and 4WD and it's impact on towing?

    Explorer as a towing package

    4WD makes a difference for towing? I could see on the boat ramp getting out, but other than that, what effect would it have other than lowering my weight limit to account for the heavier drivetrain?

    Explorer as a towing package

    yeah, I've read the limit - just curious what others found as I saw some antecdotal stories about towing with this engine in hilly areas
