    Steer me to 300A/300B/etc information

    Is there a thread that explains the 300A, 300B, etc? If I understand correctly, its the versions of the car (hood light, no hood light, full size spare, cheap spare, etc)

    Do a search under 300A or 300B. I 've stated the differences in some threads before.

    Call 1-800-FORD-788 and press "1". Have the last 6 of your VIN handy. You will get the numbers for FREE. You'll pay $$$ for the certificate.

    MM traded in 8/9/13 @ 128909 miles. It was fun for almost 8 years. I met airmercpun on 1/17/14. He was the new owner of my former ride. -Now gone.

    Update: back in the game with a late build 03 GMGS with some MM add ons like Escape audiophile radio w/Sirius sat radio, rear sway bar, catback exhaust, and header panel.

    See my garage file for part numbers and whatnot.

    IMHO, this site- the members that I chat with- and the ones that I now Hang with- are like my 2nd family. There is such an ongoing welcome feeling here that even members who don't or no longer own the MM can feel.

    If you do a search on "300A 300B" you'll find all the answers you're looking for.

    Only '03s have a 300B version...all '04s are 300A...

    The primary differences between 300As and 300Bs are what the 'Bs DON'T have:

    Full-size spare
    Automatic parking brake release
    Electric fuel door release
    Stand-alone clock
    Metal rear speaker grilles

    What 300Bs DO have that 300As don't:

    Traction control
    Heated seat option

    '04 300As are just like '03 300Bs...

    During the change-over from A to B, some Bs got some of the 300A options, so you may find a 300B with a full-size spare (for example)...

    I have a 300B then from all that I read.

    I thought I saw where the hood light was deleted, is that true? Mine has it.

    It also came with rubber bands hidden through out (when I was fixing the subwoofer rear deck rattle two or three rained down on me) as well as a large sack of money tucked away behind the cd changer. Was this the cash back incentive?

    I believe the "large sack of money" was intended only for those who bought the Blue MM with CD changer and trunk organizer. Please send the sack to me and I will assure that it gets distributed appropriately.
