The last I read, no IUP through Jan...
Karpro: How many GT's do you have in stock? We have none, and none scheduled or on the way. Are you experiencing similar delays? How big is your dealership?
We currently have two GT's and one V6 on the lot. I can't believe they're not selling, especially at our pricing, but thats another topic. As far as incoming units we have no stock units (we have almost 20 ordered units in the order bank). I do have another one that got scheduled for 01/10 that was ordered in mid december (GT, no IUP, 18R). This one will turn around in 6 weeks including the shutdown, go figure.

As far as the size of the store, I guess that relative. We are the biggest volume store in our market, beating the next closest competitor in Rochester by a few hundred units a year and we nearly double every other store in our area. We do around 12-1,500 new units a year. That leaves us in the top 15 in the Pittsburgh region (well over 100 dealers), which includes dealers from pitts, pa to cleveland. oh and east to about syracuse, ny.

They are now fixed; hence Ford is accepting orders for IUP in V6s. He was told that's why Ford blocked all IUP orders on GTs for January, in order to fill production capacity with V6s for that month which will also give them time to make the necessary repairs to the GT line and ramp that back up by February.
The IUP hold is on ALL bodies not just V6.

Do you think they look like the robot from "Lost in Space"?

How many have you sold? We have sold 4 GT's (including mine) and about 6-8 v6's. 1 v6 left in stock. My store does about 8-900 and the big store in my chain (Joe Cooper Ford in Midwest City) does 1600-2000, with Shawnee selling around 5-600 and the new store we just bought in Tulsa ???. Hold your guns on the price...we had one sit here for about a month and all of a sudden, two buyers within 24 hours.

We've delivered about 6 or 7 GT's and no V6's. We have about 20 sold orders. As far as holding to our guns on price, we sell at $200 under invoice. We're kinda holding a pea shooter, not a gun.

The 6 inches of snow we got last week certainly doesn't help any. It's almost all gone now but more will be coming. Thought about throwing them on ebay just to get them sold but can't decide whether to or not.
