Nope it’s an mt82. Knock on wood, I’ve had good luck with them so far. It has a Barton shifter so lockout isn’t really an issue anyway. It’s a 2016 with 40k miles so not bad for a 7 year old car.
I prefer the 15-17s but contemplated getting an 18+. If I did I was probably going to get the 10 speed though. I like that burgundy color Ford used.
I’m glad you like it. The Barton shifter is definitely nice. I’ve got a Barton in my 07, but that’s a different animal. My biggest complaint with the mt82 and any aftermarket shifter, is how tough they are to get in reverse.

Yeah this thing you really have to put your weight onto. The stock configuration is nice but the precision of this shifter is nice though.
Are you sure you want to throw away free horsepower like that?

Haha! Uhhh yeah. White stripes do not look good on gray imo.
That's at least 15 at the tire per stripe!!!
FoMoCo clothesline clip???
Sick of metal blades getting dulled out opening boxes. Nerd life, amirite? So Boker. Ceramic blade, titanium handle. My business and pleasure knife I guess you could call it. Stays sharp as glass forever if you treat it like it's supposed to be treated.
And I wanted a replacement for my EDC social distancing knife. I have been carrying a Hogue Deka with a Magnacut blade but it's a little light duty for social work. The forward facing hook thingy causes the blade to open right as it clears the pocket. D2 tool steel blade. It's beefier than I like as an EDC knife but more appropriate to the use case.

I'm a big fan of the Emerson hook. They did a collab with Kershaw for some more affordable versions of their stuff and I carried a couple different versions of a Kershaw Emerson for a few years. Good, cheap-ish knives that you can get open one handed.

Bet you'll love it. My 2019 is the 10 speed and I love driving it. Rev matching is cool, it's like downshifting. I like the stripes.
