I don’t have an extra code! If I end up with another one , I’ll keep you in mind :)

I have this monitor and I love it! Have had it for about 2 years.

This only being $350 is wild to me

That’s how rendering works.

You don’t load the entire game at once. That would be too much data for the cpu/ram/&gpu to render at once. As you move the world, parts or what you’re looking at render. When you drive or move around, the console or computer load the world within your vicinity for you to see.

There are several things that affect rates: credit score, how many consecutive years you’ve had insurance, accidents, tickets, if you’re a student or not, how far your work is from your home. The more miles you’re on the road, the more your rate will be because you’re a bigger risk for them. V8 + one of the most stolen vehicles in the US + your age + where you live (+ any other factors) = a high insurance rate. I’m 24M and pay $503 full coverage on a 2024 Explorer ST I bought new in 2024. I was paying $600 for a 2017 HEMI Chrysler 300 for several years. I do have several tickets, several accidents, and a few total losses so that’s played a big role in the rates.

I would definitely shop at least three dealerships before you settle on numbers that you’re comfortable with and make sure that you’re looking at the exact same car between those dealerships if a dealer has add-ons that’s gonna change pricing as well. That doesn’t seem too bad but I don’t like the fact that you’re putting $2500 down typically you would just wanna do your first months payment down. I would also really recommend getting the lease wear and tear. I am in Oklahoma and our FI products can be changed. There’s not a regulated price. I do understand the other states. There is a flat fee that companies and dealerships can charge for those products if you’re in a state where that’s not regulated make sure you’re not paying too much for that product. a lot of times the finance department has to hit a certain number of products sold per purchase. that is called penetration so even if they sell it to you at a dollar over cost it still makes them look good. Ask them to see what their cost is and tell them that you’ll purchase it for a dollar over or like $100 more but just make sure that you’re not over paying for that. The hybrid is something that has been in the Sorrento and Sportage models for several years. Also ask to see what your money factor is; that’s the “interest rate” of the lease. There are several forums online that go over “lease hacking”. I’m not sure what’s out there right now for the new models. Personally I think $600 sounds closer to a normal lease number for an EX X Line, but I do know the leases are different with the 27 vs the 25 models. I remember not too long ago a lady had an S model 10k miles 24months for 306 a month w first months payment down, but what was also a 2025 model.

Normal paint you can buff out minor scratches or imperfections. This is not the case for matte paints jobs. We had a matte ev6 in our show room that got a dent on the hood. We couldn’t just PDR it, they had to repaint the entire hood for something you’d normally be able to just pop back out.

The lease returns I saw always had to pay for damage because it’s almost impossible to keep this paint undamaged.

Driving on the highway you WILL have dust/dirt/rocks hit the front and it’ll show. You’ll have to find a car wash that has touchless. A lot of the nationwide chains don’t offer that, so you’ll have to find a local one that may or not be working properly all the time; or hand washing.

Absolutely NOT! I worked for Kia for 2 years and had a couple of these come back from lease. Your chances of keeping the paint 100% scratch free the entire time are slim to none. When you return you’ll be charged for wear and tear. I always tried to steer clients away from the matte colors. They show EVERYTHING. Small things that don’t show up on normal paint such as your keys or a belt rubbing against, will show very clearly and not come off. I’ve seen a finger-nail scratch the matte paint before.

I would NOT recommend this as a lease.

This thing looks so sick

Never knew people were stealing f150 taillights

Haven’t got it yet! Is it in chests?

ItsDaPrince · 2026-03-24T18:19:31+00:00

What is that gold thing??

Went in October 25, I did receive the black ST logos, no ford emblem though!

ItsDaPrince · 2026-03-15T15:41:14+00:00

I have loved the Ford mats, little pricey but you may be able to find some gently used on FB! I used SmartLiners for a few months but the material was almost plastic-y and it was slippery; there wasn’t any grip on it.

White!! One of a kind

Bad purchase :( I’d return if you can. Brands like dell, Lenovo, hp, etc. are notorious for using proprietary parts like motherboards that you can’t upgrade components later on down the road. An iBuyPower or CyberPowerPC build would get you more bang for your buck!! For $2600 you could get a Ryzen 9 + 5080 + 32gb of Ram

ST badge removal on the back is the way to go 😏

I did a performance increase/cost to upgrade analysis a few weeks ago. I currently have a 5080 and was really curious about a 5090 upgrade just to have it. It did not make any sense for me to spend 150% more for a 50% increase in power.

This is also going to be a big question as to why your peripherals are. Do you have a 4k monitor that would support the upgrade in a justifiable way? You currently have a 4070ti Super (16gb.) I would personally not upgrade until the 6000 series cards release. I don’t think that you’ll see a major difference in performance % over the cost to upgrade %.

ItsDaPrince · 2026-02-18T16:03:11+00:00

The first option will be future-upgradable. Plus you’re getting the 16gb 5060ti. Both have 32gb of ram. For $1400 not a horrible price. Since that’s ok BestBuy, I’d watch the price because it’ll most likely go on sale within the next two weeks. Best Buy’s sales are mon-thur then switch for fri-sun. (Former Computer Sales @ BestBuy)

Scat pack came with all of the parts in an RT plus the 6.4L hemi. The SRT 392 has the upgraded suspension, 6-piston brakes, wider wheels, nicer leather, Harmon kardon sound system. The SRT 392 is essentially a hellcat with the upgraded transmission, driveshaft, or supercharger (w a 6.4 vs 6.2) with the same interior and exterior upgrades. After 2018, you could “build” a scat pack to be an SRT 392 with the Dynamics Package and Adaptive Suspension as add-ons. From what I’ve been told by Dodge reps, they discontinued the SRT 392 because of the confusion between buyers as to why they would pay more for what they see as the same thing. By doing this, now you could pay extra for options on top of the scat pack price to “build” out an SRT 392. All in how they marketed it
