95% + of my driving is with the track key. More responsive both accelerating and slowing.

I only use the red key.

No, but your right foot does.

Look at it as Smiles Per Gallon, not Miles per Gallon.

Only use the black on long trips, and even then it's hard to switch.

Trackey only on the track. About 50% of the time for normal driving. Love the sound on decelleration

I find that the trackey and 3/4 hole plate is perfect.

also i find that the fuel mileage on the road is about the same i think.
regardless, the trackey will be my boo.

Did anyone else have a devil of a time finding a Ford dealer who would install the software? I can't seem to find one in my area...

Everything makes it look so easy on their website. Not sure I understand why I can't find a local dealer to do it.

my sales person thought it was already during make ready. once i got the car it was not. they had to install it at no charge. this was their first car so their mistake, plus here in Dallas they tact $6k over msrp if you want it.
