If it's an invincible the anti collision camera in the windscreen has a habit of steaming up and stops working, it doesn't effect the pickup just an error will come up on the dash
I had this happen a few times and its highly annoying.have to stop and re start then it clears

Had quote that was ending today, went into showroom to do a deal, salesman and manager then start re quoting,
HOLD ON WHATS GOING ON !!!
Apparently new manager wouldn't honour quote,saying it had been calculated incorrectly, to my spec,
A FEW WORDS WERE SAID, and I left.
Phoned up different showroom, but same group, magically quote was back to where I wanted to be,
WHAT IS GOING ON !!!!!

Took her for a good run today to pick up a canopy and have to say it was a lovely drive. Handled really well, haven't driven any other pickups to compare but very happy.

That's friggin ridiculous, dirty buggers. Apparently the adblue tank is 14 litres and is good for roughly 9000 miles and a 10 litre refill bottle is around £15.

A Ford dealer pulled a similar trick on me last year. I had left the deposit and by the time i got home i had an email waiting to tell me they wouldn't honour the deal. So gave the salesman and his manager a bulling, stewed about it over the weekend and took my business elsewhere on the monday.

3 litre Auto and got 35.2mpg on motorway at 69mph yesterday - over a 200 mile round trip

Surely the new 2.4's must better that??
