  1. I did some checking on internet about the Ecoboost engines and at least some people are saying that they need a major valve/head cleaning at about 80,000 miles due to poor performance. There are photos showing the gunk build-up. Costs about $800 to clean-up. I calculated I would save about $800 in gas over that time so it would be a break-even cost scenario, but there would be lost time getting it to the shop and out again. Maybe these folks run cheap gas or something however, I did not go into great depth on the situation, especially since the Ecoboost ended up not being available on my 2017 SWB XLT Wagon anyway. I could swear it was available on the 2016 however. Anyone seeing this gunk build-up at 80K?
  2. I'm looking into a decent fitting seat cushion to sit on to raise me and the passenger up. Plus it would be more comfortable as well. Anyone know of one that works well (fit, comfort, etc.)?
  3. Just ordered a 2017 XLT Wagon SWB and am wondering if the driver and passenger seats will raise with the power seats. I know they will go back and forth and change the lumbar support. I prefer to sit up higher and so does my passenger and I'm concerned about how low people appear when you see them driving one of these.
