Be aware that some dealerships have entry level oil and tire changers. They are far from being trained, certified mechanics.

Contact Ford, the BBB, Arkansas Attorney General, local TV stations. Blast them on social media. Plaster BUYER BEWARE of CRAIN FORD on your rear windshield. Have it professionally done at a sign shop. You'll feel better. So will we.

This may a good remedy for some folks, but I have impressions to the contrary: 1. It seems that we seldom or never hear of actual intervention by the state attorneys general. 2. Does state government really have the available staff and resources to police car dealers? 3. Most government actions...

Sadly, this reminds me of the infamous "damaged in transit' Maverick going to Gary Yeomans Ford - Daytona Beach. Of course there were no photos of that one...

Gary Yeomans Ford - Daytona Beach planted a demon in your Maverick. I'm thinking you should consult with a priest without delay.

I hope you come out OK, but here are my impressions of the FoMoCo relationship with their dealers: 1. Lots of bark, but no bite. The dealers are not afraid of the big bad wolf. 2. Ford has some of the hottest selling vehicles in the US. No real incentive to police their dealers. 3. Ford is...

The words "honest" and "dealer" are usually mutually exclusive.

You may be 100% correct in what you are saying. However: 1. Most attorneys specialize in certain areas. I've never heard of one with a reputation of battling car dealers. 2. State AGs actually regulate car dealers? Never heard of such an instance in my state. 3. Car dealerships are notoriously...

It's my understanding that both new and used car dealers subscribe to real time wholesale pricing information from Manheim, the giant wholesale vehicle auction business. I think it calculates prices down to particular regions of the country.

I started out with nothing. And I still have most of it.

You might want to try pounding on the desks of the sales manager, general manager and owner until you get the explanation you deserve.

Yes, I would fully investigate the situation. Human error is one thing, "stealing" your truck so they can sell it to someone else is another. Sort of reminds me of the infamous "damaged in transit" Maverick going to Gary Yeomans Ford - Daytona Beach.

Why is the dealer (finance guy) making such a big deal of this? It's been said that a high performing finance guy is the highest paid employee at some dealerships. Commission. Commission. Commission. Most employees at a dealership are paid on commission (and/or bonuses). Even the service...

Sadly, it's my understanding that the dealership owns the truck until you pay for it and they hand you the keys. I agree, this is not trivial stuff. I would be highly upset. Unless you have a document signed by yourself and a manager or the owner, it's probably a moot point. I suspect that...

Can't even take it for a test drive? Red flag. Admitted to extorting the OP over financing. Just plain stupid. Another red flag. Think you're disappointed now? Just wait until "your" truck arrives. Good luck. You're gonna need it...

There are 38 pages of postings regarding the infamous "damaged in transit" Maverick and Gary Yeomans Ford. If you have some spare time, do a search of this forum. It's an interesting read...

Reminds me of the infamous "damaged in transit" Maverick going to Gary Yeomans Ford - Daytona Beach. Very tragic...

OK folks, there's nothing to see here. The show's over. Move along... Q. What's the difference between a dead car salesman in the road and dead rattlesnake in the road? A. The rattlesnake will have skid marks in front of it. Q. What do you call 10,000 car salesmen at the bottom of the ocean...

I think the OP has been sufficiently chastised. Certainly he already felt bad as a result of his dealings with Frankfort Ford. Why keep kicking the guy when he's down? Too many unnecessary negative comments here. It's time to move on.
