New member here, I would like to know about the gauge cluster and the customizable aspect. Also what kind of new read outs / gauges there will be. Ex: boost, pyrometer, trans temp.

Okay guys. I'll probably have a limited time with the trucks as we have Mustangs and Expeditions to learn about too. The trucks are still pre-production so I doubt there will be official specs anywhere on the truck (official fuel economy and payload ratings, etc), but I'll see what I can do. I'll write up a full review on what I think of the truck as a whole but pictures and detailed information may be limited.

Thanks HC, this should be good! Supercrew rear seats - please find out if they are still as straight up as current models. That is very uncomfortable to me. I like the seat backs to be able to lean back a bit. Look forward to what you learn!

Just be sure to not recline your front seat into my rear seat space or there will be a confrontation between us and the cabin attendant with a possible diversion to the nearest parking lot!

Hello. Can you check if traffic sign recognition will be available as an option?
For example in the technology package. It works in such a way that the cameras "see" traffic signs and displays the applicable speed limit in the instrumentation. Ford has it in exemeplvis Focus:
More on the technology:

I hope your demo truck comes with the 2.7 Ecoboost. I would be interested in your impressions if so equipped.

Very cool opportunity. Take pics of the mustang. We have a 15 ecoboost mustang on the way in Comp orange but we wont get to see it for about 6-8 weeks.
