Any Iowa folks?

[CG - All the way]

From what I hear there are still some Schulte's left somewhere around here... I know (sadly) there are quite a lot on the Veterans Memorial Display, and in the cemetery up on the hill. I hope not a real long wait with getting the ecoboost. Am a 74 grad, so just a few yrs. behind ya. Good talking!

Do not want to tie up this forum. I believe my name just may be on the memorial. My parents are resting in the cemetery on the hill. Just a thanks for responding. No response necessary for this message. Stay safe!

Bought my first house in North Cedar. $7800 for a three bedroom in 1966. Sold it for $10500 in 1972. Bought my first new car in 1966 also. A Volkswagon Beetle with sunroof, front vents, tach and radio for $2002.06.
Ahh, the Good Old Days.

I live on the south side. But very familiar with North Cedar. I spent a lot of time volunteering in 2016 after the floods.

I live in Omaha, though my parents were born and raised in small Iowa towns (Templeton & Manilla). I crossed the river and ordered mine from McMullen Ford. My brother successfully ordered an Escape earlier this year from them for $500 under MSRP.

We lived there thru the 1969 floods. Had 4 to 5 feet in the basement. Moved away in 1972. That house had water ABOVE the window sills in 2008. The house was gutted, rebuilt and moved up about 8 feet. Now looks like the basement is the ground floor. North end of Cameo St. North Cedar never fully recovered. A lot of empty lots still.

May be joining the Iowa maverick crew in the next couple of months, though I've considered just reselling at this point seeing the prices on some mavs at dealers

I felt Iowa was a little under-represented even thought the fabled Granger Ford is in our lovely state. I am in Burlington myself and ordered from a local dealer.

Just now saw this Iowa site. Just got my Hybrid XL in November from McGrath Ford in Cedar Rapids. Unfortunately havent had any really warm weather to get the great mileage of the Hybrid yet on the interstate but its doing great around town even in cooler weather. 56 mpg yesterday on way home from work 10 mile trip. Usually in 40s around town and low 30's on interstate. Liking the maverick hybrid so far except for the grabby brakes.

Live in Ankeny. Ordered a 2.0 Ecobost Lariat with 4k tow. Received word on 7/19 it had shipped and I am currently waiting on it to arrive at the dealership. It’s currently been in Kansas City at ramp 6P for about a week. Hoping it gets delivered this weekend but not counting on it.

Got my 23 Lariat hybrid slightly used in Cedar Falls in January. Loving it!
