    Which one? You like it? I'm thinking about staying with 9mm and I'm liking to 2.0 compact

    It’s a *cough* special *cough* child
    It started life as a M&P 40 LE trade in, it now has a 2.0 back strap, spare slide is a stock M&P 40 slide with night sights and a 9mm threaded barrel.

    I like it, for a stock gun it’s hard to beat, the only gun I like better is my polymer 80 glock 19

    I keep hearing good things about them and I like the ergonomics. And staying 9mm I get more capacity. Thought about going 45, but eh

    Go for it, I’ve heard good about the 2.0, I like mine but I do like the 2.0 backstrap as it’s a little grippier.

    Cause I bought a Ford.


    Had it in for service. While in, they replaced my entire dashboard due to warping, replaced a bed light due to a water leak, reprogrammed my transmission due to funky shifting, and I complained about a rattling/buzzing sound while driving. It was diagnosed as the left turbo so they are replacing it.

    Sounds like you bought a lemon truck.
    152K miles on our 3.5 EB and nothing other than some AC parts as normal maintenance, first 50K if it’s life it was a rental.

    There’s been some changes made since the 1st gen Ecoboosts. The 10 speed trans is new and the engine was redesigned. Different turbos are used now too.

    Also, the early ecoboosts had problems getting water in the turbos when it'd rain but I think by like 2012 they fixed that
