Is speaking in the third person just a conversation with oneself?

Note to self: Don't buy a Ford.

The Count awoke on a lazy Sunday to a love note from Ford that his Lightning is officially "built." It also seems that many dealers are now selling them below MSRP. Once again, as everyone is of course aware, the Count's timing is impeccable.

So their "quality hold" was just corporate lying about your truck not being built. If I was you I'd tell them to keep it but I'm obviously biased as I wouldn't buy a Ford truck anyways.

Don't let The Countess see that note.

The Count continues to be flustered by Ford with a "Quality Hold" on his Lightning. WTF is on hold? Nobody at Ford or the dealer can or will say. SAD!

Well... If they are holding it until they build a quality product... You might be waiting a while.

IDK, the Count's 2021 F-150 with >20k miles has no panel gap issues and no hood flutter even though it has rarely spent a night indoors, unlike his R1S which has a hood with a mind of its own.

Well my Ford Taurus SHO that had to have the engine tore apart 3 times in the warranty period to replace the turbos is the other end of the spectrum.

They can fix the hood flutter for you with some additional adhesive next time you have the truck in the service center. Mine use to deflect a bunch but after service fixed it no more flutter.

Most people probably know this already but the Count is pleased his Lightning has a delivery date of 9/18-9/24

I was going to say "Go, Count!" but then I realized a bunch of us would be going, "1....2....3....4......

@Count Orlok are you and the Countess going to have a game of tug of war with your Lightning and R1?

 

[Stickboy46]

You need a new dealer. Turbos aren’t inside the engine.

Figure of speech buddy. Gotta take a lot of parts out to replace them

 

[Stickboy46]

Yeah, not really.

Yeah .. it does .. though thanks for your input Mr 3 posts with 2 Fords in your Vehicle profile. Sorry about those life choices there.

Prime example of the necessity of the ignore function of this forum
