Engine Cover

[1phatstang]

Did it snap it or crack? the fanciest engine packaging foam Ford has ever made.

No, it did not snap or crack. It's some pretty high density stuff. Don't know if it's there to reduce noise, insulate the engine (retain heat), or both.

Engine looks like a lil 4 cylinder with a big piece of plastic on top

There are a few 3 series drivers who know for a fact it’s not some wheezing 4 cylinder with a big piece of plastic on top.

Wouldn't be surprised if someone at the dealership switched because they wanted a fancy cover.

Glove box? What are we suppose to check there?

two more spark plugs....

Awesome quality control there at Ford. Can't believe how Ford is rolling this out, seems half-assed. Good luck getting your dealer to replace it. They probably don't know any better and will give you that ******** stare when you show it to them.

Probably got a base 3.5 ecoboost rather than the higher output Raptor version! I would run that on a dyno to make sure you got the right version of the 3.5 eco!!

Oh man imagine if you did get base engine and not the HO.

After paying $67k, I'd be crying about it too if it mine were wrong....shit if that's screwed up, who knows what else might be....

it's a damn plastic cover. Maybe they ran out of the "special" ones and put on a standard one so at least you could have your truck.

Same people whining about this would be bitching about their trucks not being delivered because of the engine cover. guaranteed they would say "it's just a cover slap on a normal one and give me my truck"

I'm with ya....I took mine off already anyway...seems like all it did was keep the heat in and make it hard to get the oil cap off. It's just the principle of getting what I paid for from the start....
