So my dad and I are out and about, and we decide to go look at mustangs, First place we stop is Rolling Hills Ford in Clermont Fl. not a very good selection, no one around to help us. Then we head over to Sun State Ford, they have TONS of mustangs, a couple exactly what we wanted but they still have a 4K "market adjustment" even on a 2005 GT, so we leave without talking to anyone. Are there still people paying 4K over sticker? Why would you ever do that? The day did not end bad though, we stopped off at Don Reid Ford and that is when i fell in love with fanblades i had seen the pictures and they do no do them justice! They were on a black GT coupe, 5 speed, ICAP, most of the goodies so pretty much my dream car the sales guy we talked to was really nice (Timothy Ward for anyone in the central florida area) but he was leaving for a Dr's appt (he got bit by a brown lacruse, spelling?) so there goes our chance to finallly test drive a GT! he said i could test drive it, but i can't drive stick yet, but I'm hoping we go back. so in conclusion dealer markup is ridiculous and probably loses more bussiness than the money it makes, fanblades are gorgeous, and as long as my dad and i have been looking around at mustangs (i know my dad wants one, but he always seems to make up a reason he doesn't when he sits down with the salesmen) Don Reid Ford has been the best experience, they were even ready to Deal on a 2006 GT!

Brown recluse and it is a nasty spider with a bad bite. I got bite by one when I was in the army near the temple, caused me to lose my sight and temporary paralysis for about 3 hours. This was a few days after the initial bite as it grew and the tissue around the bite decayed. The army is not always the quickest to let people go to the doctor.

I'm glad to hear you found a salesman you like though. Good luck to you on getting the car, and even more luck that your father doesn't keep it for himself.

Don't be afraid to look for a Stang in a different state.
