edge Member 90 Member For: 23y 9m 13d Location: Brisbane Posted 27/06/03 04:21 AM Posted 27/06/03 04:21 AM I thought it was worth rembering some of the cool bits to pass onto all. We can tend to forget or never know about some of the cool things on this car. Please add to this list as this is just a start1. If you hold down the volume knob on the premium sound system for 3 seconds or so and wait for a beep, the screen will then turn off. It will come on if you make a change and then turn off again. To turn this feature off, repeat.2. With Premium sound when playing a CD, hold down the seek on the steering wheel to change the CD (thanks to DallasQLD for that one)3. To get a single wipe of the windscreen wipers push up4. If you have premium sound, get 2 light bulbs and have footwell lights. :idea:

Hold in the Load button for a few seconds to load all your discs, rather than just the next available one [Premium Sound only].2. Your sunroof will close automatically when you take your key out of the ignition.3. When you’re low on petrol (80K’s left on ‘Range’ trip) the car will beep to remind you to fill up.4. The “T” goes really really fast really really quickly. I don’t think you could ever forget that but I think it’s pretty damn cool!

Nice touch and about bloody time ... thanks Mr Ford.
Redhawk ....Time to lay this fairytale aside...... Legacy Donating Member 2,657 Member For: 23y 6m 8d Gender: Male Location: In the Ferry on the River Styx, not getting out just yet! Posted 27/06/03 07:11 AM Posted 27/06/03 07:11 AM Apparently Ford DID put premium sound in one ute but the driver started bleeding from the ears so to stop any litigation suits they took it out :D One thing I found really cool was if you push the button with the cute little mag wheel on it for some reason the cars back wheels tend to want to have a party all on their own......wheeeeeee!

Keyless play on the stereo.2. The electric windows still working after removing the key from the ignition.

I've never been to comfortable :D
