Dealer Intercourse

[WannaMav]

Contemplating swinging by the dealer during the monthly bill paying and grocery run into town tomorrow. From time of order last August they've been quieter than a Carthusian monastery. Took me six weeks to wheedle an e-mail confirmation of my order (which was approved August 4) from the dealership.

Going to bring along printouts showing my build date (2/12). Shipped circle highlighted on the tracker but not yet showing a check mark (original delivery ETA 3/22; whether that still holds is a question mark since the new configuration of the tracker). "Your vehicle has shipped" blurb above the bar graph. Plus taking a printout of the window sticker. And will be toting proof of insurance; recently added my VIN to the policy. BTW, I do not receive e-mails from Ford, and never have - with the sole exception being one acknolwedging initial reservation.

Anyway, aside from the glaringly obvious (read: price) does the hive mind offer any other questions or conversation deemed imperative to chat with/pry out of them prior to anticipatory vehicle arrival?

Are you expecting some "intercourse" at the dealership?

Maybe you should take a polygraph and a subpoena, wire up your salesman, and ask a series of questions intended to catch him in sales perjury.

On the other hand, you could always just ask: "Hey dude, is my Maverick gonna be here soon?".

Whichever you choose, use protection.

Your dealer must be a lot hotter than mine was.

My "dealer" sent me a text and email yesterday asking if I was still interested in the Maverick.
I replied "I got it over a week ago".
Seriously, this dude even got credited for being the salesman (split with another more competent and deserving sales person thankfully). When I took delivery this putz was out of town and I was honestly glad he was.
He followed up with a congrats or something. Didn't really read it...
Anyway... Good luck on your quest!

I thought maybe he was referring to the Ford dealer in Intercourse, Pennsylvania. But then I realize he's in Hawaii.

Me either. I'm going back tomorrow and demand some intercourse!

One thing is for sure, deal with any car dealership and you are guaranteed to get screwed.

 

[Twixel Jackson]

Make sure you use some prophylactics to protect yourself from the dealership diseases...if that doesn't work, "pull out" of the deal.

This thread disappointingly did not match the Thread Title

Been here since June- hands down best thread ever. Thanks for the laughs gang

With Vaseline a 0 percent constraint item the substituted hell fire jelly is still be “dropped” in “free of charge.”

If they don’t have it you can track it by rail car.
