This is my amazing 2012 Boss 302 Laguna Seca (#649 of 750).
About the Laguna Seca model, it is a factory option that is the track-oriented version of the Boss 302. On top of
the standard Boss it included the paint and decal scheme, the rear seat delete kit with crossbrace, different
adjustable damper settings, different springs, staggered and different style wheels, different tires, a different
rear spoiler, lower production numbers and probably some other things I can't recall. It also included a different
front splitter, transmission air scoop, and a brake cooling duct kit, but they are not factory installed on the
car, they come in a box. The car comes with a silver key and a red key (the TracKey.) This is so you can use the
regular engine tune or the TracKey tune, depending on which key you use. The TracKey programming (Which is
purchased aftermarket and installed by a Ford dealer) includes several differences, most notably the removal of the
skip-shift "feature" that annoyingly forces you to shift from 1st to 4th under certain acceleration conditions, and
improved throttle response. I mention the throttle response because for me, it is the most noticeable difference
between the keys. The regular key responds fine to throttle increase, but has a tendency to hang at RPM when you
reduce throttle. The red key responds instantly in both directions and adds a lot of character to the naturally
aspirated awesomeness of the car. The red key also has RPM adjustable launch control, pit lane speed control, and a
more aggressive idle. When you shift gears with the silver key, it sounds like it's ripping open a black hole,
while the red key usually includes some wonderful popping sounds.
Those are general Laguna Seca highlights, let's talk about this car:
I am the original owner and am very sad to let it go. However, my loss is your gain!
I bought the car in Delaware in December 2011. The miles are mostly highway, as the car has been all over the US.
It's been garaged for most of its existence, just not the last 6 months. My expectation after buying it was to keep
it forever.

NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs
Mon, 11 Mar 2013It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.
Watch how Ford torture-tested the 2015 F-150
Wed, 09 Apr 2014The Ford F-150 has been the best-selling truck in the United States for the past 37 years, and the best-selling vehicle outright for the past 32. That's quite a legacy, and thus, it's no surprise that Ford worked super-duper-extra hard on creating the all-new, aluminum-bodied 2015 F-150 that debuted at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
During an event at the company's headquarters in Dearborn, MI this week, we were able to see all of the ways that Ford endurance tests, not just the new F-150, but all of its vehicles. From examining things like light exposure to interior materials and paint finishes, to making sure that corrosion absolutely does not happen when steel components come in contact with aluminum panels in the new truck. The goal: ensure that the new F-150 is nothing short of "Built Ford Tough."
But that's only a small part of the story. Of course, the new F-150 has to be able to withstand whatever a pickup buyer might throw at it - and truck buyers arguably demand the most from their vehicles. So in an effort to convey just what the new F-150 had to go through before being given the final go-ahead, Ford has released a series of videos, showing how its new halo truck was indeed torture tested.
Ford readying Ranger-based Everest SUV?
Fri, 21 Feb 2014Way back in August, we showed you a Ford concept for the Australian market called the Everest. Now, we can show you that work on the new Ranger-based SUV is well under way.
At this stage, it's still quite clearly a mule (note the misalignment of the front and rear doors), wearing the Ranger's front end and the rump of Ford's overseas Territory crossover. The wheelbase is shorter than a Ranger, according to our spy photographers, which strikes us as somewhat odd for a more passenger-oriented vehicle. Disc brakes should be fitted at all four corners, while the new SUV, which will almost certainly wear the Everest name, should sport a new rear suspension.
In terms of looks, we're expecting the Everest Concept to inform the appearance of the production model. Naturally, there will also be some interior tweaks, particularly around the dashboard, which is covered in these photos.
