The EcoBoost in the F150s can run on regular if you want, or premium (91+) if you want all the hp. Just like the 5.0. You can run it on regular or 91+. The difference is about 10 hp or so, and equal amount of torque. But for the ST, I'm sure with the turbo, its boosted a little more to get more power, hence the need for 91+ all the time.

Interesting . . . on BON there is a thread stating the Focus ST (among others) is not eligible. http://www.blueovalforums.com/forums...an-exceptions/

Hi Jeff!
Thanks for reaching out. Since the Focus ST will be built in limited quantities, it is excluded from all Plan sales this year, similar to Raptor and GT500. Having said that, we feel the pricing is exceptionally competitive as it undercuts both the GTI and MazdaSpeed3, all while delivering so much more to the customer!
Thanks for your support on ST!
Best Regards,

If they did allow plan pricing, so be it, but I would think they would want to keep it off to keep the transaction prices higher, to keep long term value high. The ultimate test is when I get a VIN and run a VINCENT program sheet, and if shows the dealer commission for said plan sale for said plain sale, then its eligible. If not, its no-go, even if the prices are on the invoice.

Hey Steve, that is VERY interesting news. I actually emailed Lisa Schoder, the brand manager for the ST line, about a month ago and asked her the exact same question and here is her reply (cut and pasted from the email to me from her):

Um, what? It won't be sold at MSRP.
