I know when im ready to buy I should be able to get something around the 45k mark with the options that I want. how long does delivery take for an fg? the vw take about 6 months!anyone noticed any common faults in the fg's as yet? such as the diff clunk in the ba's. or more annoyingly the seatbelt wearing into the guider on the drivers side.

BUT you can always ask ASL they are really good with all the techy gadget stuff that ford brings out and they install it on peoples cars for what seems a very decent price compared to dealerships.

Tranny cooler would be good if you are doing a lot of towing, couldn't really see a need for it otherwise...unless you are pretty harsh on the gear lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
