"Reasons I might have a 98.5:
- build date 11/97"
That answers it right there, after August 1997, Ford built "new" 1998.5's.
Also, the 98.5 SE was virtually the GL/LX (P66 code) replacement and V6's and alloys were optional. The LX became the "strippo".
2000 SE fleet, V6, ATX, ABS, no spoiler, T-Green/tan. Built 01/2000 in MO.
Added 12 spoke factory SE rims, K&N. Biggest mod: ESP Plan!
