Me too! Form Ply with packers doesn't look the goods.

Mine goes back in on Tuesday. When I picked it up the 1st time they said by the way we fitted a new wiper motor as your wipers weren't parking in the right position. I said didn't notice that in the last 2 weeks of rain. Next moring I used my wipers and geuss what: they wouldn't park in the right position. Back to Ford at 8am to show them that not only bluetooth wasn't fixed but now I had an extra drama. Tech Guru paired up his phone then had a gofer call him but he was unable to answer it with steering wheel button. Tech Guru and Service manager decided that as the wipers and BT was not working it must be the BEM unit (?? No F....... Idea what that is but apparently controls all this crap that doesn't work) So it's next Tuesday for a new BEM unit. Keep you posted.

Picked up ute at 5pm yesterday. Had new upgraded module fitted (this is a May build ute and thought all upgrades would be fitted) and geuss what: Still the same! can make calls out but still won't recive calls or recieves them in the middle of call after answering with the handset: dash shows phone number then says "call transferred" back to Ford this morning to show the tech guru. Keep you all posted Marty

Yeah definately Ford BT issue not Iphone problem or any other phone for that matter. Waited 2 months for the factory ordered "Tech Pack" in my 2 week old Turbo Tub cause I was sick of inefficient Blue Tooth hands free gizmos for the last 5 years now this! Hope they've got a quick fix!

Having the exact same probs with my Telstra tradie phone so I tried the wifes Motorola and son's Nokia yesterday with no difference. Rang local dealer who straightaway said what day do you want to book it in to fix it? Told them I was about to buy a new phone thinking this was the problem and they said no don't do that they know what it is and how to fix it so Tuesday it's booked in at 8am. I'll keep you posted on the result. Marty

Good and bad news: Picked up new FGT Tub in white at 2pm minus the Hard Tonneau and Spoiler (next week sometime). Good news: Will be on the cruise. Question: clocked up a massive 66km so far, is that burning wax smell after a good tharshing nomal? For all you cockroaches comming on the cruise I'll be in the new white ute with MAROON no. plates.(and total clueless newbie driving)

Yeah it's been out the back of the dealer for at least 2 weeks (factory order 16th April). He's hoping Ford will give more bonuses if he sells it in June instead of May. I'm not arguing as I got $11,500 off the list price. Just hope they get the friggin hard toneau,spoiler and tow bar on by Friday. Being an old fart I only liked the black and the white so I went with white. I'll post a pic Friday if all goes well.

Well as a total newbie I'm signed up for this cruise. Just hope my new white FG Turbo ute is ready on Friday afternoon. See you all Sunday if it turns up. Marty

Booked in for this cruise, should have a 2 day old Turbo tub picking up Friday from Victory at Tweed all going well.

Yeah my discount came to $11,063.00. Tell em to go hard or you'll go to another dealer and don't let em make you sit and wait. Best market to put the pressure on them for once.

You're not in Brisbane are you? I had my fingers on a white one but it didn't have the tech pack so I ordered a white with sports pac, 2300kg tow pac, safety pac, hard tonneau with spoiler: $42,600 drive away so I reckon we both got a bargin! Is your tow pac a genuine Ford? Cause they wont give you gearbox warranty if it's not genuine. marty gold coast

Yeah odered white with hard bubble tonneau and spoiler. May even slap the blue GT Cobra stripes on after I get it into the 300+ club

Just went thru the same dramas and have finally orderd a White auto with hard tonneau and spoiler, sports pac (18inc with ipod and bluetooth) saftey pac and 2300kg tow pac. $42,600 drive away 8 week wait. One Brisbane dealer had base turbo March plate $38,000 drive away. Best balls for heavy towing so I think it's worth the wait.

Just ordered the FGT ute in white with sports pack, hard tonneau with spoiler, saftey pack and 2300kg tow pack and sudenly delivery jumps from 1 week to 8 weeks: why doesn't that suprise me!

It comes with a "load levelling device"? Wondering if they change suspension in any way?

Does the 2300kg tow pac affect ride or suspension drastically?
