To us, yes, stupid (and stupid to everyone in reality) But there are those with the means to chase these kind of things just for the sake of owning them, and they do so.
On these, Ford set the price, not us. There was no PDI or anything. Probably $30K of that was sales tax.
It was my understanding that you agree to lease these from Ford with a payment in full up front. At the end of two years, you get the title. They are tryng to avoid what happened with the...
Yeah, its the same "shift knob" that is in every other thing we sell... I was surprised (maybe I should not have been) by how much off the shelf stuff was in the interior.
We got one yesterday, the buyer is a neighbor to one of our sales managers. It came on a special transport with two Ford delivery gurus. We had a little party surrounding it and people came from all over, as there will not likely be another one in our area. We get to keep it roped off on the...
I paid $40,500 D plan pricing for my '24 GT base. Exactly two years and 17K mile slater, I traded it on a '26 GT premium, D plan price was $51,000. I got $39,200 on trade and my payment stayed the same, as I had put a ton of $ down when I bought the '24.
The '24 was Grabber Blue with Space Gray...

The recall drops off Ford's OASIS site when the dealer submits the claim to Ford and its paid. It usually takes about 3 days. No dealer sits on warranty claims, we want the money that Ford owes us!
As regards FordPass, I have had customers show me on their phone where the recall was still...
Quote: "Yes, it is a wear item, but there's also an expectation of a certain lifespan. If the driver uses launch control just twice, a feature provided by the manufacturer, I don't see failure in 8000 miles to be acceptable."
I agree, but who defines the "certain lifespan"? And we have only...
A clutch IS a wear item, I would do as they are doing so there are no surprises about expense once it apart. If the pressure plate came apart, it would be a warrantable repair, if the disc is smoked and the flywheel has hot spotting, customer pays. The only two issues I have is with the...
