The Fence is mighty slippery... We just bought a condo so we're in no shape to buy right now. Maybe in a year or two, though. -juice
#21745 of 31414 05 XT OB by fastcar05 Aug 10, 2004 (10:46 am)
Just picked it up today! Around Philly burbs they are going for 400 less than invoice. Anyway, does anyone know what size the speakers are? Crutchfield and others do not have specs as of yet.
#21746 of 31414 great price by njswamplands Aug 10, 2004 (10:46 am)
and congrats. btw do you mind if mike borrows it for a few hours to do his own personal rollover test?

Great price indeed! Congrats on the new ride. Enjoy. What color? What tranny? Base XT or Limited version? We like details! Cheers! -Ian Replies to this message: fastcar05 (Aug 10, 2004 10:56 am)
#21748 of 31414 Oil recommendations -Synthetics? by fastcar05 Aug 10, 2004 (10:53 am)
What is the suggested oil for the 05 OB's XT I like to use Mobil 1 synthetic, of course the dealer won't acknowledge that (because he won't be doing the change(s)) any experiences?
#21749 of 31414 by ateixeira Aug 10, 2004 (10:56 am)
Wait until the 1000 mile break-in at least, then try synthetic. Congrats, by the way, very nice ride! -juice

Replying to: goneskiian (Aug 10, 2004 10:53 am) XT base model... Security perimeter upgrade, Auto dimming Rear view Rear Cargo net and Wheel Locks blue with the titanium two tone trim. Auto trans Stickered at 30 and change Invoice of 27893 - 400 - bought for 27493, all in 1 hour during lunch, must be a slow month?

I'm sure they are eager to move the new models. People vacation in August so I think it's generally a slow month for the whole industry. $27,493 is good, below the average new car transaction price, actually, and the car is a lot better then average. -juice

5w30 Mobil1 would be an excellent choice after the first few changes on regular oil. ~c
#21753 of 31414 5W30 M1 by bluesubie Aug 10, 2004 (1:05 pm)
5W30 M1 year 'round will be fine as long as the car won't see temps above ~95F. I was in 99F temps in SC last month, and there was a nasty knock when I tried to start my FXT. M1 5W30 is thinner than conventional oil. I'll be sending my 5W30 in for an analyis soon to see how it has held up. -Dennis
