For a guy who's only been here since December - I'm surprised you knew that. I haven't seen anyone talk about the ERL lately. When everyone was waiting on the first 05's to show up we were always talking about how much we hated her.

When I first ordered my car back in January, I had heard about being able to track the progress once you got the VIN (another abbreviation). Instead of just asking how to do it, like a good little newbee I did my research and found my way over to Blue Oval for tracking. There was plenty of talk about the ERL over there, and that is one term that has stuck with me since.

It would be very helpful. It's taken me months to learn some of these, and it can be embarassing to look like a newbie and ask. I'm all for it. How can I help?

I agree. I'm far from the mechanical type, so a lot of terms are new to me. Knowing what they all are in one place would be a BIG help!
