I’m wondering if there’s anything worth spending 42000 ford pass points on. There doesn’t seem to be much available by way of accessories for the ST from Ford. I might just use them on service.
What have you guys spent your ford pass points on?

Alignment after I installed Steeda springs. Left me with 12,000 which will probably expire soon.

I used mine towards the purchase of an extended warranty from Flood Ford. Your 42,000 points should be good for $420 off the price.

I don't know what kind of deal you got but 200 pts is worth $1. 42000 is worth $210

I have the console vault in the maverick. It’s cool. But I think I’d rather do a trunk vault for a rifle and training gear. Would be nice if I could get one from a PIU.

Agreed. It’s not much. But it’s something

I used mine to get a rear cargo mat and 3rd-row mat and a cabin filter. I still have about 4,000 points I need to use up. I've been told these expire. Can't tell anyone they should buy Ford's cargo mats. They're kinda slick.

EDIT: By the way, this is a little bit of a sidetrack. I've purchased 4 new Fords over the past 6 years. Each one came out of the Chicago plant. All of them smelled very bad. Not like a new car smells more of a mossy smell. I changed the cabin filters within about a month and it cured the issue in each.

You're right, I was going off memory. I know I got several hundred dollars off the ESP when I used my points (but don't recall how many).

I ordered a Bronco, then a Maverick, then the ST (since May of 21).
Funny you mention the smell. My Maverick smells like the best new car sent of any car I’ve ever owned. Not overpowering. But everyone that gets in it comments about the “new car smell”. hope my ST doesn’t smell like mold/mildew/moss.

Yeah, well... that was inappropriate. I think we need to do a reset. This is getting old. Personal attacks don't belong on any forum and yeah, I've been part of that too and will do better.

We can have civil threads with real discussion without the rest of this stuff. Anyway... stepping down from my soapbox and dropping the mic.

I got the cross bars for the roof rack I will probably never use.
