Ghostrider Posted November 1, 2004 Report Share Posted November 1, 2004 I'll try to make this short... (don't you hate when people say that, you just "know" it's going to be followed by a long bunch of drivel... ) Sometime ago the local ford dealer (where I've bought 4 new trucks in the last 8 years) really messed over me in a large way. I posted about it, I got replies (completely unsatisfactory) from one of the sales men who basically said "It's not my probelm and not "my" customer." and I printed the threads and returned them with the stealership "satisfaction" surveys. Never have heard one single word from the dealership in any official capacity. I've been very unhappy about, to say the least. So... Yesterday, the wife went to look at cars (she's tired of her Z3) and I told her that if she found something expensive that she liked, just to trade the lightning in on it. So... Here's what she came home with. The truck is gone. I hope you will continue to let me lurk here. I've really enjoyed reading the posts and learning about things. If not, Best of luck to you all...

m396 #00-011 Posted November 2, 2004 Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 (edited) You suck.... World's better than the "L" anyday. Congradulations on the new ride, she's pretty sweet. I like that color a lot.

2drTahoe Posted November 2, 2004 Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 Excellent choice , Z3 good riddens So what are you driving if the Lightnings gone? Too bad about the next gen Lightning. It looks like my sport truck would have been that or the Dodge Ram SRT-10. Guess it's the only the Dodge now. Gotta work out the $$$ though.

TurbochargedBerserker Posted November 2, 2004 Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 As long as by "lurk" you mean "come over and give me a ride" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylan06SS Posted November 2, 2004 Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 I'm of the school of thought that the wife should NEVER have the faster vehicle... so what are you going to get yourself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostrider Posted November 2, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 Thank you for all of the positive replies gentlemen! I sure do appreciate it. :up: In general.. Yes, she IS a keeper. I had to kiss a "bus" load of frogs to find a princess, and I'm going to keep her happy if at all possible. The truck is gone on trade, I'm driving the Z3 (much like a power skateboard ) until we sell it, then, well, I really don't know. I haven't ruled anything out. I don't want a payment, so a 5k or so older car, maybe an early 90's stang, or an old chevelle, or??? who knows. I suppose it will mostly be about availability when the time comes. I'd like a vert, I've gotten spoiled by them... And if you'd like a ride, just stop by and we'll go... Thank you again for letting me stay, I'll try to behave. My best... Paul...
