Okay so I may be young, 22, but when I headed out to my local dealer to talk to them about ordering a Mustang GT in Feb. I got treated like *%$#. The salesman sighed as I came in. He treated me like I knew nothing about the car and I was riff raff that couldn't afford a Mustang GT. When I asked him about a Mustang GT he half rolled his eyes. He acted pissed off when I told him I was buying in Feb. like I was wasting his time asking to look at one of the cars. He treated me like I was completly ignorant on the options. I told him I was willing to order a GT and he told me, until I convinced him otherwise, that the GT wasn't availble without the shaker 500. Needless to say I was a little miffed. I probably knew more about the 'Stang they had than him. He treated me the whole time like I was some punk off the street that had no intention of buying the car. Look I'm a college grad. With a good teaching job. I would just like people to treat me civilzed.

The dealer had a single reedeming quality. As I left another salesman came up to me and shook my hand and told me to come back In February and he would make me a good deal. He actually treated me like I was a serious customer. Just goes to show you can't judge a whole dealership by the actions of a single salesman.

Does anyone know a good dealership in Kansas So I can go actually take a test drive?

I spoke with my local Ford dealer who can't even get a GT allocated to them. They have a V6 on the lot with a 3,000 dollar mark up. The next nears't burg over preety much said the same thing, allocation for gt's are used up. They have more buyers than they need and they just dont care till they get hungry.

Very true I have alot of time. I just wanted them to answer some of my questions on the ordering experience in person, but I'll just have to wait until the market gets flooded with stangs
