Hi all,
After many years of owning an the NL Lane and my daily EB and spending a bucket load modifying them - it was time to upgrade.
Picked up the rear tub racks and board holders before I got the car I was that excited
Heres my 2012 Ford Wildtrak.
So far loving it and all its extra little features.
What I love:
- Reverse Camera, wow without it would make it very hard to park such a long vehicle
- Big Mirrors
- Highbeams are pretty good at night on the country roads
- Great torque through the gears
- Space in the rear cab is excellent for a crew cab
- Sound system is half decent
- MyFord voice control is pretty accurate
What I don't like:
- Rattling / pinging I assume when its cold, going into ford tuesday to check it out
-Auto seems to hold gear when going down hills
- SatNav has a mind of its own at times, stupid long routes that are meant to be 'fast'
- Paint seems to scratch easy
-All these features, why not keyless entry and pushbutton start? (would have been a nice to have)
- When the headlights are on and on 'auto', when turning off the car, the 'your lights are on' noise comes on for a split second.
- Rear drum brakes? - is there a reason for this?
Over all great car, drives and rides excellent, great for long distance (unlike other crew cabs out there), and has that tough Ranger look.
Cheers,
Ash
