Don Ridley Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 (edited) I ordered a 2016 TC, short wheel base 1.6L wagon in late April. It arrived in California in early August. I am very happy with the 1.6L turbo engine. I had driven the 2.5L version and it was OK, but the turbo generates more torque at lower rpm and is more fun to drive. I ordered most of the options except for leather seats, SYNC and parking assist. My only regret is I bought the Quicklear windshield . This windshield has very fine heater wires that are almost invisible, but they diffract light at night and bug me. It is overkill for California weather and I may replace the windshield with a normal one. I have lots of projects and upgrades planned and will post them as they occur. So far the van is exactly what I wanted. Edited September 21, 2016 by Don Ridley resize photo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrtn Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 You'll get used to to the quick clear wire grid. I've had those since my '96 Escort and loving every minute of it. The defogging power of this solution exceeds any blower and even works in very wet and damp conditions, not to mention de-icing (not relevant in your case).

Fifty150 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Project 1 should be to modify the odometer with more miles, burn off some of that new tire top tread layer. Break it in. T0ASTERvan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
