Dealerships also can't get them in stock until they have techs trained to work on them. And consider that it has "V6-like" acceleration and a half ton towing capacity, which is much, much lower than even the gas only model. Not that I'm trying to knock it or anything... I'm really interested in one myself and I'm in the process of deciding whether to get one as soon as they come out or wait for a while to see how they fair on the road. My mom works for Ford and every time one of the regional representatives comes, she's asking questions about it. I can't wait to drive one.  |
Oooo - thanks!!!!
I did not know that. I have seen a few here in Atlanta, which probably is a biogger market - so I thought they were readilty available. I certainly hope so, because it appears to be, based on the reviews, a great car!!!!!
