  1. Oh and just my .2, stick with ATI for graphics. They are way ahead of EVGA.. EVGA Mainboards are beast as hell.. check them out. Asus has a terrible warranty/customer service department. Oh and INTEL all the way on CPU.
  2. I'd look into the Cooler Master v8.. Way better than the one you mentioned in your post.. Also, the Cooler Master case is sub par when pumping out that much heat. I'd stick with either a Lian Li, or try out the Antec 900 or 1200. The big boy 220mm on top really is a horse when pumping out exhaust!
  3. Complete overkill... Even if you were a network engineer and running xfinity across 6, 50" monitors.. Web designing and movie making production co's don't need that much.. As for a good sound card, the XFI Fatal1ty Champion Series by Sound Blaster is one of the best out. I have no complaints on it. Drivers were buggy in the beginning but that has since been fixed. I have the two part series.. Front bay and rear card slot.
  4. Dealerships tend to be honest.. At least more so than the corner shops.. Those corner shops are competing with dealerships. A dealership makes there profit off of Parts/Service.. The other 10% of sales comes from Cars!! When you find a good dealership. Don't ever leave them!
  5. LOL -- Pull his man card if so!
  6. They told her this because they read her character and could easily tell she knew nothing about what they were telling her. This is classical in the automotive industry. They saw her coming and they took her to the cleaners. I use full synthetic in my edge, 5w20 but I do it myself.. I use Mobil 1 and generally use a K&N oil filter and spend about 50$ to do it.. I do it myself.
  7. You're correct.. The Fusion is what's wrong.. I know you are on that site and see the forum post about 2.0L eCoBoost consumption.. I am not the only one.. The motor has 2300 miles on it so I know that I am still breaking it in, but the gas mileage sucks.. As for Florida driving, you are correct.. I live in Orlando so I drive, 417, 408 and I-4 daily to work.. Some day's its 65mph steadily and others, its stop and go for an hour straight.. Maybe that is the culprit but all in all, the Gas tank only takes 11-13 gallons of Gas, depending on how it feels.. Even when I am about 35 miles below 0 DTE, and the MPG is balls.. I too have the 19" H spokes..
  8. I have a 13 Fusion Titanium with the 2.0L eCoBoost and I can tell you that the Gas Mileage isn't any better than the Edge.. I get 21-23 on the HWY in my Edge and the same in my Fusion.
  9. The Fusion itself is fantastic.. The gas mileage isn't!
  10. I just read the reviews on this and picked a bottle up... I will see how it works, but from the reviews.. You can't go wrong with it. I love that you can use it not only on tires, but trim and "leather"...! That's awesome! I have been looking into "Adams Car Polishes" for a while.. There website/videos seem to be top notch, but haven't ever really heard people talking about them. I am looking into buying a full detail kit.. About 300$ for the total kit.. Inside and Outside cleaners with buckets. I love to make my vehicle look clean. I clean both my 13 Fusion Titanium and my Edge religiously! I am very good and making the vehicle look what I think is the best it can, with Meguiars polishes from Autozone, but apparently.. You can do so much better with professional cleaners/polishes!
  11. Give it time my friend... Give it time! All year models do it. I have asked probably 100 owners over the years and you will now be placed into that boat of about 7 owners who have stated there seats don't do it. Imagine your seat feeling like a recliner every time you stop or throttle your vehicle.. It gets annoying, but you deal with it. Supposedly, the only fix for it is replacing the seat track... There's a few threads about it on this forum.
  12. My problem with tire gels and foams is that once you spray them on.. The vehicle is really clean and all waxed up, the tires are shiny as shit.. The next day, you drive your vehicle.. As soon as you get home, the micro fiber towel comes out and you have to do a wipe down of the entire vehicle because all of the gel/foam slung all over the damn vehicle.. Including the front and back windows.. Once you do that, then it looks good for about a week and is then dull again. I have used the Meguiars Gold Class Endurance GEL and it works pretty good. Holds up more than the others and the applicator pad that I use, has so much damn gel in it.. I can normally do all 4 tires without putting any new gel on it. The shit slings though, like all others!
  13. I don't see how people can't understand how to post pictures to this forum.. I have attached step by step instructions just for you sir! Hope you like them.. They took me 17 seconds to make/complete!
  14. I have aftermarket 22" TSW Snettertons in Hyper Silver on my Edge.. Wife let the curbing at the bank eat some of my rim the other day.. About a 12" gouge, my heart stopped when she called me crying... I found a machine shop here locally in Orlando Florida, if any other members care! Olympits on Forsyth, just outside of Orlando. They charged 65$, Rim was done in about 2hrs.. The damn thing looked better than the day I took it out of the box to have it installed.. I kid you not. I thought I was about to cough up 400$ for a new rim!
  15. Yeah, just about every person who owns an Edge from 07-13.. Some people claim there's don't do it but most people will state that it does. It feels almost like a slight rock forward and rock backwards, depending on stopping or going.. My 07 does it, you get used to it after a while. Supposedly some people have said the fix is by replacing the seat track.. Gotta get the dealership to "ok" it though.. I had mine in the shop twice for it, just after purchasing it.. They wouldn't replace the track and stated that everything was tight, event though they could replicate!!
  16. Plasti-Dip it.. If you don't like it, peel it off and try something else. Plasti-Dip is also coming out in many colors now.. It's so easy to work with and if you screw up, there's something really wrong~!
  17. For the price, she is very nice.. I'd haggle with them and have them put leather seats in the vehicle.. Tell them that. The vehicle was smoked in and you have alergies, but the price is right.. Put leather in the vehicle and you have a deal.
  18. I have this on my front windhield in my 13' Titanium Fusion. You can't tell its on there at all and the vehicle is always about 20 degrees cooler inside since installation. This is also combined with 5% on side and back windows.
  19. It was a joke.. I would only continue to troll on you whilst drinking my beer. I have lived in jacksonville, hence the reason my boat is there. I wouldn't go as far as saying FAIR but it has some advantages.
  20. I'll be at my boat this weekend at "River City Brewing" company.. I'd love to hear about your Billion dollar IT comp.. i'll even buy the first round!
  21. #patientlywaitingforamodtodeletemypostforsayingFUCK....YAY
  22. In all of this /wristing that you are doing.. I am getting two things out of this.. 1. you want turn knob dials and 2. you hate having to look at your dash to turn something on/off.. Grow a pair dude and stop fucking whining.. If you don't like the options it came with hence MFT, you could have gotten an older model that has all of the turn knob's you can imagine. Climate control tends to work very well, thats why its automatic.. It adjusts itself and if you don't like the options it has chosen, you adjust them.. The same damn way you do it with turn knobs.. Either way, you are still looking at the dash board to turn them on/off.. It's the same with heated seats.. Bad troll is bad, give up. It makes no sense. Congrats on your IT position.. I am a chief engineer for Level 3 Communications, I am sure you internet comes from me, whoever you are! :doh: And in Florida, we party when it hurricanes.. We don't need no stinkin HAM cricket sounds filling our airwaves! g'day!
  23. 20k seems a bit high considering the mileage and the model only being an SE. I am pretty sure I was seeing some lease options going out for SEL's and a few Limiteds in the mid 20's to high 20's, but on a lease...
