  1. Personally I couldn't possibly work around not having both my F150 and the FFH. One could not replace the other (until I can put the plow on the FFH and go to Costco for both home and office). I think the seats are far superior in the F150. Of course, the FFH gets great milage and use it when the truck is not necessary. I am fortunate to be able to have both at the same time. They have very different functions. If I was forced to pick one, I would replace the trucks engine with the FFH system! :blink:
  2. Got a set for my F150 (for plowing) but still haven't installed. I have read that they work great at keeping the ice off but not for removing a large buildup. Easy install but just can't find the time when it's warm enough out. (I hate working on the cars when its below 30 degrees)
  3. Weathertech does not have the cargo mat and I placed a request for them to notify me when they do have it 7 or 8 months ago. I got the mat through AutoAnything (make sure you sellect hybrid) and it fits well. Be aware that it smells VERY BADLY. It took 5 months for the smell to lessen. You will smell it in the cabin especially in hot weather. Some have tried baking soda (don't know if it worked for them) and washing (didn't work for me). It is a strong plastic/rubber/chemical smell that some people may find highly objectionable.
  4. 1 year and 3 months since last update makes me feel abandoned when it comes to sync.
  5. Isn't it great that Ford has essentially abandoned us early adopters of their high tech car? Sure they will fix it but there were promises about updates and new applications.
  6. There hasn't been an update for the sync since 09 and that didn't do much for the system as it was. Does anyone know of an update coming since 3.1? I thought there was going to be some apps available for use with the sync system (the system that came with 2010 models, not the new ones). I keep checking at the sync site every few months and nothing shows up.
  7. nothin' a little duct tape and touch paint wont fix!! Glad your O.K. Car is made to collapse so you don't take the hit. Time to break in another new one!
  8. How did you glean your excellent instructions from the worthless instructions that came with the key??? Thanks for the excellent write-up. Key programmed perfectly first time.
  9. This is not April but this must be your idea of an April fools joke
  10. So you're going to attach the Fix a Flat to the flat tire without getting out of the car? Makes sense to me
  11. Wow, I would not put that junk in any tire that has TPMS. And as far as saving gas by removing the spare...sounds silly to me. To save what? $10 over the time you use this car? You just spent that on the Fix a Flat can!
  12. Yes, I use snow tires on wheels that have no TPMS. Light stays on all the time. No problem. Just check tire pressure monthly at least. (should do this anyway). I don't trust the standard tires for the winters in CT. I am putting TPMS on the snow tire wheels for my new Vette. The tires are so "thin" you would have a hard time telling if it is flat but the FFH tires will be obvious.
  13. The rattle my car developed seemed to come from the front passenger seat. One day I shut the sun roof cover and the rattle stopped! I have an appointment next week for the dealer to fix (these rattles are covered under warrantee). All of the rattles that are mentioned above are more than likely a warrantee issue (not the glasses!!). This car is very solid and shouldn't make these noises. (Even my Lexus had an annoying dash rattle that was fixed by dealer). I was waiting to bring the FFH in for any other issue and just add on the rattle but I just haven't had any issues!
