Well I just picked up a Reserve for a 24 hour test drive. Here in Canada they can't/don't do the dinner thing. Insurance regulations; if you go for dinner and get hammered then wreck the car, it's a bad thing. I can understand, I guess. Am also on the hook for fuel.
First impressions; pretty nice. Have only driven about 10 KM (6 miles) so far, so not much to say. However, did notice it is quite a bit more noisy than expected. Was on a 4 lane secondary road and did hear road noise. Surprised at that.
Next, turning radius is better than my Focus! The latter does have the handling pkg. with the 18" wheels and they put in a stop to prevent the tires rubbing at the extremes which makes the turn radius a lot more than one would expect.
So, I'll post here over the next day and let you all know how it goes.
BTW, the shipping hold was for a windshield issue. Don't know the details, but it sounds like southern climes saw windshield problems, likely due to heat.
Also, massage seats apparently will be a "late delivery" option. Would be interesting to see how that works.
