Considering its now 100% troll, not even one sentence about anything useful, yes.Trolling again I see. Do I need to ban you?
What else is there for a 50 year old man wearing bunny slippers to do? Troll Ford forums obviouslyLolol He just cant stop. He's addicted.

You gotta know the roads your driving on with these cars, or pay very close attention. Mine look brand new after almost 5000 miles. I'll probably put on some new tires later this year. I found a place that will put them on, fully insured and have done carbon fiber rims in the past. That part of its a pain in the ass, but I love the rims. Honestly, I wish they put on an aluminum rim that looked as nice with MPS4'sThis is my problem with the carbon fiber wheels.

Just as Tob alluded to. Ford is clueless as to the consumers wants and needs list. I sometime wonder who these geniuses are.
Why do you care? It’s slower uglier and has less power than your car. You would never settle for second best.Who's worried about wheels being stolen? Ford is protecting your wheels in the best possible way: THEY WON'T SELL YOU THE CAR.

I stand by my sarcastic estimate
Ford officials were alerted to the possible issue by "a handful of employees" through its internal Speak Up channel, according to the company statement. The main concern is whether it miscalculated "road load" during testing.
Road load is essentially the force put on a vehicle while driving at a constant speed over a level surface. A lighter load in the mathematical equation could result in a better fuel economy than stated.
Ford’s issue involves tests done on a dynamometer—a device that allows a car to simulate driving by placing its wheels on rollers, like a giant treadmill. To ensure that dynamometer testing accurately reflects real-world driving, testers calculate a measurement called “road load,” which simulates aerodynamic drag, friction, and tire-related losses.
According to the EPA, the methods a manufacturer uses to characterize road load force are optional, but it is the manufacturer’s responsibility to ensure those methods conform with EPA rules.
I think I paid $1300 in GG tax on my '09 GT500 and $1300 on my GT350.
