My FDI has the All Weather Capability and Tow Prep groups. It has the oil cooler, tow hooks and full size spare. I have used the spare and tow hooks. It also has a block heater.

Biting the bullet on a different Oscar Mike Patriot... Fd1 without the touch screen stereo. Ill post pics later. The fully loaded fd2 would be nice but more money than we are wanting to spend.

We asked about pricing and didn't jive with our needs. Ill have a Montero for any serious off-road needs. Definitely like the 2.4 more than the 2.0. And averaging 23mpg in town during the test drive was nice... Hopefully it'll stay that way
 
Congrats. Get a Fuelly account and track your MPG/fuel costs from the get go.
 
or just find a year old FD2 latitude pat like I did for only $16k. It even still smells new.

The fuelly account is a great idea unless you use it with an android phone in which it doesnt work so well.

Went with the 13'.... found a couple non FDII with miles on em', but my wife would rather go brand new for a few thousand more $$.

Probably be the only brand new car we buy in our lifetime unless we win the lottery =-)
 
Cool! FD1 is fine. I have FD1 CVT 4wd. AverAge 24 mpg in summer around town and 22 in winter with winter blend fuel. Best cruising speed is 60-65 then get around 27 mpg. 2.4 engine has been just fine, and I have had the car for five years.
