Sorry if you answered this already but was wondering how comfortable the seats are.

Sorry if you answered this already but was wondering how comfortable the seats are.

I'm sure that will always be subjective to the individual, but yes, absolutely, the seats feel completely comfortable to me. I've been driving a Ford Explorer - 2016 Explorer Platinum and 2011 XLT since 2011, and don't feel any more or less comfortable with the GT PE seats. Granted, I've only had 25-30 minute drives so far, so a longer 3-4 hour drive could feel different. Body type, size, age, back, etc. would all impact any given person's idea of comfort. So far, so good!

FOLLOWING UP ON THE GROUND CLEARANCE:

I am wanting to get the GTPE and the ground clearance is my concern as well. I have had a FE for about four months now and I haven't had any real issues but sometimes when backing out of our driveway in the FE, it beeps when we come up to the street (about 1 out of 6 times) and sometimes it slams on brakes and stops the car completely (about 1 out of 20 times). My driveway does not seem steep and we angle it out when we get to the road. I think it is being overprotective but I am just worried about the lower ground clearance and not being able to get it in the driveway at all.

I mean nothing seems unusual about our driveway (the house is built on a slab so we are not at the top of a hill). I probably need to watch somebody back it out and see how close it is actually coming to the ground. I haven't had any range anxiety since I got mine but I do have ground clearance anxiety. But other than that, I love it. And would love to upgrade to the GTPE.

Also, thanks so much for the pictures and commentary. It is awesome.

FOLLOWING UP ON THE GROUND CLEARANCE:

There is some questions about ground ground clearance and height from ground to front splitter / air dam. I am not able to accurately assess the actual ground clearance across the entire vehicle, but here is a snapshot of the clearance up front from ground to the splitter at center of the vehicle.

The splitter comes to an edge, like a blade, with curvature / bevel on bottom and front. As you can see, the lower part of the curvature is a tad bit over 8", with the edge between 9.25" and 9.5".

(The picture shows a dirty splitter - it's not scratched.)

I'm sorry. But those seats. They don't even have GT embroidered on them either?

You sure those aren't repurposed dentist chairs?

They have to be for when you swallow your teeth after hitting the go pedal.

That's really assuring! I was worried about comfort for normal driving, but sounds like it'll be great for dd! Thanks for answering all our questions!

The rear... GT only, no pony. I would prefer a nice pony with a subscript GT or something that. I suppose Mustang aficionados will recognize GT, most certainly. Ford is in upper windshield. I'm not sure general public will know GT, maybe just it's a supped up version and maybe most recognized with Ford brand.

Just so you know you're already internet famous and all of the internet is currently relying on you for a full review and report as soon as possible, since Ford has everyone else on lock down.

Oh so sad...

I approve of this message!

So, I know the wheels are different in the GTPE vs the standard GT. Is the front fascia the same? Are the front row seats the same other than the stitching?

It looks amazing btw OP, congrats.

I've driven around town including an area with rather high curbs for entry into commercial and residential - I angled into them, but probably had no issue to be concerned. I'll try to get a picture and/or video of the approach and driving over one of those curbs.

I just want to say thank you for all the pictures and details you are providing. I'm guessing that you never anticipated that the car would make you as "famous" as you are at the moment. Just seeing a real life GT PE in a customer's hands makes me happy. I just need to be patient and wait.

I have some fantastic initial driving videos / review including 0-60, but found my YouTube channel can't monetize and could take a month to be approved. What to do? If someone, site, or YouTube channel can help publish and share, we can talk. I have many videos already.

Don't even sweat it. There's no path to riches here.

I, honestly, don't know what youtube pays today, and it's not easily figured out anyways, but it's really not much, probably in the range of a couple of dollars / 1000 views. And, it won't be long before all the regular sites hit.

Thank you for the photos, however.
