Fun fact...my Infinite Blue Mach-e is going to be named Max because of this movie. I hope I can change the "Hey, _____" to Hey, Max to communicate with it.

Must be some weird lighting, or bad camera settings. The paint color doesn't look close to anything there. Almost a rose/copper shade.

Even the walls have some of that tint.

And the wings! Everyone forgets the wings!
well the wings have to be heated so they are on the outside of the divider while the shrimp are in the ice in the center and kept chilled. The keg is in the back and folds up and out when the back hatch is opened. Got it all spec'd out just waiting for MY DARN CAR TO ARRIVE!

I assume that’s the front trunk lid? The latch catch (or whatever it’s called) looks odd. It almost looks like an afterthought - like “hey guys - don’t we need a latch to keep the front trunk closed? Go see if Sarah can quickly bend a rod over in the metal shop.” I was sort of expecting something less ... exposed - like on the rear hatch of my escape?

My guess would be they still have to have it function as other hood latches, meaning a sturdy close and a second back up grab of the hood if the hood slips out of the first lock.

Just noticed, I don't know when it happened but to order a Mache now is 1,000 dollars down not 500.
I still have not been required to pay a deposit on my order

"Hey Mark,

Don’t worry your order is in and submitted to Ford since the day you were here ?

I will contact you if a deposit is needed but you are on the list ?"
