All,
 
Just love this new ride.
 
Highlights:
 
-Torque
-Brakes
-Sync
-Handling
-Mileage (avg about 30 so far around town and highway)
 
Ford did a great job.
 
Now if I can find the Garage Door openner I'll be a happy camper.
 
Off to the other boards.
 
Regards,

Seen in Wisconsin Dells, WI this weekend. Was bought at Capital Ford, in Madison. Seen at dusk this time. Lots brighter when it's light out. Definitely an '09, by the grill and gas cap. Fit and finish looked good from the outside. Exactly what we ordered, except that the dealership will add a tow hitch for the bike rack.... if we even get confirmation of a VIN/build date in the next month. Otherwise, a non-hybrid 09 Escape is on order.
 
Haven't been able to figure out how to get pics to show here. Link is:

Quick update:
 
I was also surprised to find that my 09 FEH (w/o Nav) did not include a simple homelink garage door feature and the little compartment up by the sunroof now is for sunglasses so you have to velcro your garage door opener somewhere. Wierd.
 
I love the MS Sync system - works great with the ipod - who would have thought that MS and Apple worked it out.
 
I hear from the service guys at Ford that that when the "plugable" model comes out they might issue a retrofit kit for our models. That would be cool. He also mentioned some chip that one could buy (and void the warranty) that extends the electric mode.
 
more later.

I was hoping I would have a VIN etc to track soon. Tried the website - denied. Hope it's not a bad sign....

That happens periodically when too many people are on it at once - retry (and refresh your web browser).

Ursacat, I would love to see a photo of the radio setup - I also ordered mine without the nav, but every picture I've seen has the nav system installed.
 
Word from my dealer is that I'm next in line to go from order to production schedule, so I'm (hopefully) looking at mid to late October for delivery. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

May orders? by revmin

I order my FEHL May 10th. The dealer is still stating that he has heard nothing from Ford through the rep. I'm beginning to get worried- very worried. No Vin, no scheduling of any sort. Are there other early May orderers out there and what are you being told about the process?

Got Mine This Week! by hxciter1

Picked up my FEH Limited FWD White Suede Loaded on 8-19-08. I ordered on 4/28 In Metro Detroit. I have put about 150 miles on it at an avg of 35mpg. I seriously recommend the NAV with Sirius travel link. It is very, very, cool. The only thing I dis-like is I wanted a god-damn WHITE car. Not White Suede (although that is the only white you can get, What car company does not offer a pure white color for their vehicles? How stupid Ford.).
 
Otherwise, well worth the wait, and totally sweet.
