  1. The lift gate is available on all models here Wagon and Van, but finding a Lift gate Van on the lot would be more difficult . I think I was fortunate to find a Black XLT wagon with Swing door's. The 1.6 was never available for A TC that I would buy so I can't miss something that could never happen.
  2. Good to know. what would be your replacement cost for that mirror?
  3. The used car web sites have lots of used TC wagons I even saw a Red Titanium. The only thing I noticed is most of the passenger wagons have lift gate's. The thinking must be most mini van people want lift gate's . Swing doors for me! I will have to check out wraps , they sound interesting.
  4. There is a very good thread on vent's under Cargo area Vents in Accessories and modifications you should check it out. Nice job on your conversion..
  5. Ford USA makes that series mirror an option, The biggest problem with the US standard mirror is the wide angle mirror is in the wrong place. The side of the TC is not visible so there no useful reference in the image. mrtn are the mirrors on your rig electric ?
  6. Nice report. The propane conversion is really going to work out for you. I will be interested in the long term durability of the kit. Keep us updated from time to time.
  7. The difference between the cargo and the titanium would be noticeable If you have the Vin of the one you rented you should be able to track it down.
  8. Cool that will be good. The alt is is 150 amp unit, and the output wire is about 10 gauge. If the Camper power is coming off the second battery then 10 gauge will handle the 25 amp charging load fine. Sounds like a great project!
  9. Did you get enough to replace the TC. Save the Wheels!!
  10. What is the battery voltage with the engine off ? What is the battery voltage with engine running ? What happens to the voltage when the lights and heater fan are switched on? Does the engine falter when every thing switches off? If the engine does not falter then the supply power to the Module that controls the ac,radio and instrument cluster is intermittent.It could be a ground or the supply voltage.I have not yet gotten a gen 1 wiring diagram so I am some what limited .
  11. A couple of question's What is the purpose of the second battery? Where do you want to put it? Is this a van or a wagon
  12. Looks like a good rig should work well. Number 10 wire would handel the load with a very minor voltage drop. Make sure there is a fuse at each battery .
  13. Great looking forward to the info. Sounds like a good thing for you!
  14. Mrtn How is the propane conversion working out?
  15. The 1.6 is an eco boost engine. They just deleted it for 2017. The engine while giving a small boost in the mid range failed to be exciting . If they had used the 2.0 Liter then the up sell would have worked better.
  16. Sounds like the run solenoid is not being energized when the key is in the start position.
  17. I have one , it will be interesting to see how long the battery lasts. Once it dies I will do an autopsy and see if the battery could be replaced.
  18. The way the roof panel is put in and the rack sits in a channel makes the installation of the rack, be it factory or aftermarket a challenge. It is good they found and fixed it. Windshields are just waiting for the next rock!
  19. The radio Can be turned on for a short period of time after the key has been turned off, it will play for about 1 hour. I do not remember where but it is explained in the Manual . I have the standard radio.
  20. Yes I am in the club too . Let us know what you find
  21. That Race Red TC will be for sale soon . You should be able to follow that car; I have gone to several used car web sites and the Rental TC's seem to have around 15000 miles on them. The discount could be very good . Hope you find your match.
  22. What were the code numbers? There are different level scanners, A good repair station could have one that gives more information.
