    It's been a pleasure being a member of this site.

    Good luck to all of you and I hope that Ford fixes all the little issues that have plagued all of us over the years. This is the new ride, it's a completely different type of beast. Will add one thing, this will actually stop itself at all speeds to prevent hitting the car in front...

    looks like I'll only have the explorer for 2 more days

    Test drove the Infiniti jx35/qx60 this afternoon. Was really nice, quiet and smooth. Trying to figure out pricing, but I'm picking one up tomorrow for a 24 hour test drive. The sliding 2nd row is a nice feature, and being able to access the 3rd row without taking out the car seat is...

    whoever invented inflatable belts needs to be tarred and feathered

    Seriously, this is the stupidest idea ever. Try installing a high back booster seat with an inflatable belt. It doesn't fit through the damn slot in the booster seat. Plus, all the major manufacturers don't recommend using an inflatable belt with their seats because no one know what kind...

    Can't pair bluetooth phone, video inside

    First time something like this has happened. I'm a tinkerer with my phone, so i have to repair it every few days after making changes to it. Anyway, this is what I get when I try to pair it. Guess I'll need to reboot MFT and try again. http://youtu.be/Lr1cRv2WrhE

    car has developed creaking noise

    Its not a rattle, and its not constant. Whenever I come to a stop or start again, I hear a creaking noise that seems like it is coming from the rear drivers side door or the b pillar, but I can't isolate it while driving. Anyone else experience anything like this? Its only started...

    Navigation system traffic data

    I just remembered this and posted it in the Stock forum, but thought I'd mention it here. I'm in the US, and obviously we use MPH here. But for some reason when there is a traffic incident and you click on it, speeds are shown in KPH. Very strange.

    Any way to adjust aim of fog lights?

    Passenger side is aimed much lower than drivers side. Don't think the bulb isn't in properly(I put h9 bulbs in). Too cold to mess with it now, but as soon as I have a warm day, I'd like to go back under and check it out.

    Split Armrest Issue

    Well, since Ford won't fix the two issues I have(leather tear and wheel damage), I guess I have to throw a patch on the rear armrest to make sure the tear doesn't get worse. Any ideas where to get one? And in the spring I need to find some new wheels for it.

    Gotta love the versatility of Thule roof bars

    Makes doing something like this so much easier. Who needs a pickup truck for an 8 foot ladder??

    just noticed my wheels are all damaged

    Both passenger side wheels have gouges in them that the dealer(not sure if it was my dealer or the one that had the car first) attempted to repair. Didn't notice it at first because its been raining non stop since I got the car, and they are both on the passenger side. The driver's side wheels...

    2011 HID's vs 2013 HID's

    Besides for the auto high beams, the projectors used in the 2013 are far superior to the ones in the 2011. Better light distribution, especially to the sides, not as steep of a step in the cutoff either. Seems to put out a lot more light as well. Very happy with whatever Ford did to them...

    New car is here!

    Limited, 302A with tow package. Can't wait to tow something! lol And unlike most people, I prefer the standard 20" wheels over the upgraded polished ones. Everything looks good on it except I found a slight tear in the leather armrest in the 2nd row. Mentioned it to them and will have it...

    One last concern about new car

    Should I be worried that the car they are getting for me was built in March according to the window sticker?

    3.5L without selectshift?

    The window sticker of the car I'm getting doesn't say 6-speed selectshift transmission, all it says is 6 speed auto. Every other one I see says selectshift. What's the deal with that? http://www.inventory.ford.com/services/inventory/WindowSticker.pdf?vin=1FM5K8F85DGA02976

    opinions on silver??

    They are having trouble finding a car in the color I want, but they located a silver one with a black interior. 302A Standard wheels towing package. Not sure if I like silver or not.

    I won my lemon law case

    My 2011 is to be replaced with a 2012 if black or gray is available, if not, a 2013 is to be ordered. Hoping that they can't find a 2012. Very excited, but I hope that I don't have any problems with the replacement vehicle.

    had my lemon law hearing today

    It went well. They have 10 days to make a decision. I requested they replace my 2011 limited with a 2013 limited. I did not ask for any cash reimbursements, but I could have. Will post an update when I get one.

    crash warning and adaptive cruise control faults after going through deep water

    This has happened twice to me in the past few weeks with a lot of rain and flooding. Both systems will fault after going through flooding on the drivers side. I'd say 3-4" deep for a couple hundred feet. Both become operational after the car is restarted. Just wondering if this happens...

    Explorer Nav vs. Edge Nav

    Still having Nav issues. Something has to be wrong with the components of my Explorer. Both cars side by side, no obstructions over the cars with a completely clear view of the sky. My Nav diagnostic screen. 2013 Edge Diagnostic screen

    apim replacement made backup camera not work as well

    My backup camera used to work great, day or night. At night it was gray, kinda like a camera using night vision. Now when it is dark its just grainy and hard to see anything with any detail. Anyone else notice this? Will call the dealer Monday and schedule yet another visit to see them
