Default I wanted to thank you all!

I just recently found and purchased a 2016 F-Type R convertible. Thanks to you folks I knew about the battery reset trick after attaching OBDII readers, and I also found the articles on how to set up my CTEK MXS 5.0 trickle charger directly to the trunk bus bar.

Today I found out how and where to put my EZPass transponder. Thanks for that too!

What a great community. I hope to be able to contribute something to it, some day.

No, you can't get one of these at Best Buy....
It only had 7000 miles on it, I told the wife it was a bargain and I HAD to buy it!

Welcome and a great purchase. My friend Mark also just purchased a 2016 R convertible with a few more miles on it than you but he feels he got a good deal as well and for the past 24 hours he has been insufferable with excited texts to me! Sorta like I was 6 years ago

Enjoy and know that you have earned the right to revel like a school kid for the next several years…you’ve earned it!

Don't be silly - it'll last a lot longer than that!

Nice ride. I just joined earlier this year and this site HAS been amazing. Really nice and cool folks on here. I've learned a bunch and it keeps things exciting.

Do you have any additional plans on mods/upgrades for your ride?
