I'm seriously considering a Mach-E. I've been researching and shopping around for a couple weeks now. I know that I want either a premium or a GT. The sticking point, however, is the change in the driver's seat in '24. Those models have the ability to tilt the seat cushion, whereas the prior 3 years did not, and I feel like that change makes all the difference in comfort. I have test driven a '26 Premium, a '25 Premium, a '24 Premium, a '23 Premium, and a '23 GT. Both the 23's were noticeably less comfortable to me. So, my question is, is there a way to add that adjustment to the older models? I know that Desert Does It has a kit that changes the tilt of the cushion, can anyone vouch for whether that does the trick for taller drivers? If it weren't for the seat, I would probably prefer a late '23 GT (mainly for pricing and availability reasons), but I would hate to purchase one and find that it's not as comfortable as I need it to be. Sorry for the rambling post. I really appreciate your feedback.

Our shop is in the market for a flatbed cutter with light routing capabilities. We currently have 2 flatbed printers, 2 roll-to-roll printers, 2 plotters, and a CNC router with print/cut functionality. We're up against the limits of what that CNC system is capable of in terms of print/cut work so we're seeking a user-friendly flatbed cutting system mostly for board work (foamcore, coro, acrylic, ACM) with occasional vinyl work. This will help reduce the workload for the CNC, which will be better utilized for fabrication work (aluminum, thick acrylic, etc).

I'm wondering if anyone here has any experience that they'd like to share with the following manufacturers:

Kongsberg (Specifically the Entro 24) Colex (Sharpcut SXC 1732) CutWorx (Apex M 3516)

I had considered Summa as well, as we have a Summa plotter that is fantastic. Ultimately, though, Summa's router capabilities and belt driven head architecture are probably too limiting for us.
