New guy from Newcastle

Postby sleeping giant on Sat Sep 02, 2017 9:05 pm

Hi everyone,

I'm Brad. Just bought the only new car I will probably ever have. A 2017 GLX MQ Auto. Traded up from a 2006 Ford Courier Turbo Diesel Manual.

Mainly got it for the safety because i have a 3 and 5 year old and towing capacity. Courier only tows 1800kg.

Have a few questions already. Will have a search and see if i can work it for myself.

look forward to chatting on the forums.

Pics when I pick it up.

Thanks
sleeping giant

thanks guys.

been doing a bit of research already.

probably get a catch can and a couplertec for it straight away.

Was thinking about getting a weighbridge ticket to see how heavy it is before i start adding to it, then weigh it after the bar work and canopy etc are on and see how much weight effects its fuel consumption

G'day mate, hope you enjoy the MQ.
If you don't have already...might want to consider a fuel pre filter, there's a few posts about these on here.
