3) Car was not sold, I do not believe they have many orders yet, people will want to drive the car before they buy it (including fleet operators).
4) 1100 km range is optimistic, even in the XT which has a lower fuel consumption of 6.1 for highway. At that average if you run it dry your still only looking at 1114.... I think 900 - 950 per tank is more realistic for a highway car, in comparison to around the 700 mark for a petrol its still a winner.
5) The XT has a trip computer functions the same as the rest of the range.
As for the Mondeo vs. Falcon that is a tough one. I still think the RWD Falcon is a nicer drive then mondeo, and it has a better gearbox.
I still wish Ford put the V6 TDi in the Falcon, it would smash ecoboost with 440 nm of torque!

how many k`s did the little falcon have on it DashGT???, i`m thinking perhaps we can cut it a bit of slack in the go department if it`s not run in yet??
