LMAO, i wonder why ford did a lotta things. why did they use cheap plastic in my car, why is they're no turbo zetec stock fsvt?,etc. if your car runs in the NORMAL range, then it is fine for operating, there is no1 on here that races their zetec and would say when it's in the L is the optimal condition. I think between N and R would be best, and 180 degree thermostat will help that. just because ford did something doesn't mean they did the best thing,,, remember the contour didn't sell too well, does that mean that's what ford wanted?
