I'm lurking with a 2010 Candy Red Ecoboost and the 20's. You are not alone, I am still stock after 3 years of ownership.

This is mainly my wife's car, but I have threatened mods lately. After all, I'm paying for it, right?

Lots of knowledgeable folks on here!

Welcome, kito.  Please give us a holler from the New Member Introductions area http://www.ecoboostperformanceforum.com/index.php/board,14.0.html if you please :D

Something to be said for having 3 years of patience!

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

They say its for old people (MKS) BUT if you want a sleeper....There is not a better car.

I will be in the market soon for one (13) so I can run E85 and "go fishing" like street outlaws.

MKS owners don't know how to use the Internet, so you must be the only one that figured it out!  I keed, I keed :D

Welcome!  Post up some pics!

A '13+ MKS EB is sure rare, love seeing them on the road once every 6 months!  I contemplated getting one due to the pano roof, adaptive suspension/HIDs, and lane departure.  But in the end, went with the sportier looking SHO that matches my age better (33).

Lol, that's just Duuurty.   I'm only 30 and I bought a MKS over the SHO just because of the rarity and ADDED Sleeper factor.  I'm still stock and seeing the shock on peoples faces when they get completely destroyed from a dig by a lincoln is hilarious!! Plus the panoramic roof is nice for us old folks :)

Too many 0% offers to use your own cash.

Leave it in the bank to grow and use FoMoCo's $

There are also "zero money factor (basically a 0% lease) leases available for those that like to change cars often. These can lead to some absurdly low payments but you'd better have excellent credit and you will have to ask as it's not something they will offer up. In fact, they might outright deny any such thing exists...

I'm 25 but I sure do feel old!

Definitely agree about the sleeper, also the luxury and power make a nice combination.

The MKS really does have a sporty stance!  low in the front and higher in the back with a wide stance.  it looks like its stalking, prowling...
