I was driving to Tampa, FL today and saw a dealership (Brandon Ford) with about 8 mustangs on display. The dealership is on a corner lot of a major intersection on SR 60. They have this two tier rock like cliff built up and have roughly 8 Mustangs parked up there. It looked pretty cool seeing all those up there. I know, this post is worthless without pics. But for those looking for a pony, I SAW plenty at Brandon Ford. Just an FYI!

Tony, Tony, Tony... Or is it Juan? In either case. Buddy, sweetness, Captain, hermano... Joke alert. Or more correctly, slight sarcasm alert.



I dinna doubt. I believe. But pics would be nice, yeah? 'Cause it'd look cool I bet.

/Ah to be me. What a mess...
//Like my monkeys. The fling stuff everywhere. But I still don't have pics...

Amazing!!! I wonder if houtex has 36 monkeys too??? J/K

It would be nice if they had actual pix of the cars to prove they do have 36 '05 stangs on their lot.

Gents:
Give it a few months and the lots will be packed with 05 mustangs (yes, i promise ). Those who paid a mark-up or MSRP will be hating themselves. Why buy this car now and face impending recalls, defects (first year of an all-new model), and of course price gouging. I have seen 3 thousand dollar mark-ups on V-6 05 stangs at starr ford in glendale, ca. Once the hype passes the incentives will be back, and yes you will be able to buy an 05 Gt at invoice (if you're a good negotiator). I am going to wait a year or so.

Keep in mind these inventory listings on these dealer sites aren't always accurate. My dealer's site says that they have 3. When infact they only have 2. The other is supposed to be on it's way but they said it seems to be taking forever to get it. So some of those cars you see in their site's inventory may not be at the dealer yet.

He Aint Lying! I have been going to Brandon Ford for the last couple weeks, trying to find the right one for my Mom. They have got a ton of 05 Mustangs in! GT's don't stay on the lot long but V6's are kinda slow to sell, I've seen the same 3, V6's sitting there for over 2 weeks now. I'd say they have had at least 30 since I saw the first one there about 3 weeks ago. On top of it they're not adding a "Fair Market Value" Adjustment to them either. Selling for MRSP/Sticker.

Yep - drove past there the other night on the way home. On top of that hill they have 4 V6 models - yellow, grey, white and black. No GT's in sight from the street at least.

They also had a number of 04's parked somewhat behind them. I recall seeing a yellow one with black stripes. I was just passing through the intersection, which was a busy intersection! As I mentioned before, I didn't have my camera and I was on my way to Tampa. I thought it would be nice to let people know they had plenty there, from what I saw. I really don't care if someone doesn't believe me due to lack of pics. I apologize for not having pics. They way they had them displayed did look pretty cool though! Just a tidbit.
