Thanks for posting this, Dave.  Though this makes me sad "Lincoln sales, through November, represent 3 percent of Ford's overall sales."

Anybody know how much of Ford sales is fleet sales?

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!

After all our revery tonight we'll need road signs to be very explicit...

This has got to be the longest week ever.  Waiting for Friday to get new wheels and Saturday to go see all my Grand Kids!  First, to my younger daughter to see the toddlers and then meeting my older daughter with her two older boys at the Holiday Inn Elgin for dinner at Friday's, swimming and a movie!  It will be great driving down to IL with the new wheels.  I hope it isn't too sloppy out by then!

This is right now.  I just cleaned her of a few minutes ago.  We probably had a good foot or so this week.

WHAT DOES REDUCED TORQUE MANAGEMENT MEAN WHEN TALKED ABOUT WITH THE MYCALIBR8OR?
2013 explorer sport
LMS tuner stat 160 3 bar magna flow v8 91 map
k&n H&R spring
retrofit FXR bi-xenon projectors done by lightwerkz 
all lights replaced with leds from daytimebrightlites

The stock tune drops revs between shifts.  That is torque management.  Custom tunes will reduce that drop.  Kind of like speed shifting an MTX.
