Thank you for taking the time to put this together!

One very small thing:

-GOAT: Goes Over All Terrain
Go Over Any Type of Terrain

I can only imagine Ford is hoping we just all refer to it as Go Over Any/All Terrain.

This took longer than I thought. If anyone has any suggestions or feel something needs to be changed, then gladly post away. Seeing some of the same questions starts to get old after a while.

I know I missed some stuff so add away.
This is awesome. Thanks for taking the time to collate the information into one post..

I’ve always wondered, why does OBX (Outer Banks) have an X? All the other trims get by with two letters.

Because that's how us North Carolinians have been abbreviating the real Outer Banks for ever. It all started because if you go to the DMV in Manteo, NC, your license plate will start with "OBX" followed by some numbers. You can only get those plates at that particular DMV, which is in the Outer Banks.

Great Job! I hope the dealerships read this so they may fine out what is going on.

-What does MIC mean? Mold-In-Color. The top is made of plastic but the coloring is molded into it, unlike a direct competitor.
-What's the deal with those MIC tops? THIS should get you started. It's quite the mess.
-When can I get a modular top? MY23, but it used to be MY22, and it was late MY21 before that.

Here's one that has no answer.

Why can't Ford figure out how to put power seats in the two door?
