    LOL - you and me both... Wife says i pay more attention to the car than her (I can’t argue b/c she is right). I just put on the louvers and the satin grey stripes are in and I’m waiting to have them put on… no rocker panel decal’s. Once its done (and all waxed up) I’ll post some pictures. I like the pics you posted – that is a real nice looking ride.

    Just a suggestion from a newbe, when the car is brand new the ECM will not let the car boost up at all for the first 50 miles. There is a wastegate to vent the boost so if your not getting boost you may check there. Being new to Ford and the new computer system there maybe a problem with the wastegate control. I do not know if it's vac/boost controled or electronic controlled. Mine will come up in boost if I hit the gas very quickly, if not then it will not boost up. Since Ford wrote a new program for 2011's there is not a lot of information I have found on just how much and how the ECM controls stuff (still reading and trying to collect all I can to understand it better. Sorry I can't give you more information.
