Hey Guys!!! So I bought my MKT back in June, and let me say... YES!!!! lol
You guys already know!
I am glad I came across this site in my attempts to narrow down some issues i'm having... regardless of those issues, i ABSOLUTELY love my MKT (sry Flex guys, i think mine is sexier).
I'm a single father of 2, a full time professional musician, and i do some rideshare driving on the side... so i needed the space to accommodate. Little did i know what i was getting myself into! 😁😁😁
The story of how i came across it and came to buy it it almost "kismetic", as i like to say. Some day, i'll post a long story about it.
Long story made short, I got it for somewhere between 6-8k below market (well... dealer), with a brand new (completely factory rebuilt) engine and 70k on the chassis and drivetrain.
U guys have been invaluable in helping me figure out what i need to do to make this beautiful machine last a little while longer. I am in the process on finding my 3/8 ext. so i can open up my PTU, lol... among other things.

I will post some pics at some point, but i just wanted to check in!

Welcome to EBPF, zstring, glad to have you and your MKT join us!  I know of 1 other member (akakooper) that has an MKT, so this is very select company indeed :)  Kids must keep you busy!  Looking forward to pics of your ride, and of course your successful completion of the tasks at hand.

What instrument(s) do you play?  Solo, band?  Pics/vids of performances?
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

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!

Welcome zstring.  The MKT is nice but the Flex is sexier! :-)
