In five more years the two older kids can drive themselves so it'll make the trip MUCH easier, you fail at teh math skillz.

well when 2 inches seperates you from the back seat it should be easy. lol remember when your old man could swat at you from the front? in mine the seat is too tall if only he had a focus. i hope in the near future i can take the fam to rapid city and this time bring the slowcus .

It bugs the crap out of me that you can't get the highest option package with cloth seats. It's like they think the leather is what powers the Sync module or something.

no , what powers the seats is the fact that they (ford) cheated us out of the (to me) the sexiest hatch since the 205 abarth. the c30 euro and the 500 version had to be the best i have seen in my life time short of the cossie escorts. then they give us and the world this slim hollywood cosmetic surgery gone wrong,too skinny lookin, 4 door havin moon buggy thing.....im pissed!!!!!!! i wanted soooooooo bad to stay with a ford hot hatch, but i am so hurt by the fact that they didnt care about making there customers happy.

What does any of this have to to with how arbitrary option packages are?

it dont
. i am a child and i am angry with the new st.
i do get the options pack. or i mean i dont get them. ford used to be real good on letting you order the things you want. back in 2000 when i was in the asset program, a couple of us pranked the order office. we found out that you could order a 2000 mustang gt with the v6 body package with the uhg-oh rims, gt brakes,rubber floors and cloth seats and no ac or radio. the prank back fired but we learned some cool stuff.

Nah it's probably just so they can make a few more bucks profit by including the leather seats. I have noticed that building other models too, to get one feature you want (that should hardly add anything to the cost), they like to throw in a bunch of BS features/options you wouldn't normally want to pay extra for.
