I just logged in today and saw this. Congrats on the new truck and I hope your next one is one of the good ones!
My DSB hearing was Tuesday, I did not get to listen in. I should know this time next week what their decision is.
Man, 40 more days until someone contacts you about the exchange? This is one drawn out process!

Ok, Ok, Ok, Congradulations on a positive resolution. With all the crap you went thru I'd have written the $ 256.00 on the spot (once I found a calculator) in case they change their mind.
Now...am I being goofy or does the divided by 120,000 represent Ford's anticipated life expectancy of the truck/motor?

Did they use the number actually paid for the truck or the window sticker?
The cost factor is what we paid for our truck with the life expectancy fixed at 120,000, each of us can figure by our mileage how we will come out if we accept Ford's anticipated offer.

This process is not for people who are impatient or can't keep paying payments on a truck they can't use. A law suit or Lemon Law hearings could literally take years.
My wife works at Tex DOT and says that people who win in the Lemon Law hearings are very rare.(she can't remember a single one)
