He didnt mention anything about the 10-sp auto for 2017. Most of the "upgrades" are small issues that are being ironed out from the 2015/2016 MY run.
Glad I'm getting a 2016 then. Cylinder deactivation is annoying.

Not that that's a feature really worth waiting for.
Yikes! I was planning on buyng a '17 3.5EB....but not if it comes with auto start stop. Total deal breaker for me.

Why? Do you like sitting at stoplights burning gas?

And like they said, it can be turned off. But I don't even know it is there anymore honestly since it's pretty seamless.

They are supposed to change the standard size of a coffee cup in 2018, so they fit Ford cup holders.

I am!!! Looks like a bunch of trolls pissed they already bought. Yup the 17 is bringing in the compacted iron graphite block and same timing chain set up as the 2.7. As well as port and direct injection Basically all the praise the 2.7 gets over the 3.5 will be coming to the 3.5 in less than a year. Personally I'd rather have the 6spd trans. It's well geared and always in the right gear. I'm happy with that. I'm extremely excited. Can't wait to get mine. If any of this is doubted do your own Google search. You'll find it.
