Thanks for all the support guys! I'm really nervous about it so far. I'm always thinking "will someone buy a car off of a kid?" But I will certainly do my best and make you guys proud!
They will buy from a "kid" if the kid knows what he's talking about. It started in the business 18 years ago at 22 yrs old. The older guys will "test" you a little. Just know the product. No offense to all the Mustang folks around here, but concentrate on the volume stuff (Explorer, Escape, Focus and trucks). The Mustangs are great but the trucks and SUV's pay the bills week in and week out.

Good luck and welcome to the hardest easy way to make a living in the world.

I agree with Paul 100%!!!! I know alot of salesman and alot of them dont know much about any of them, but the few that know their stuff in and out on all the products (and accessories), they are the guys who have people waiting to see them in the welcome area.

Andy,

Congrats on the job, Sloan ford is only two hours from me. So when those Shelby's come out I will keep you in MIND. I will be trading in a garage kept, never driven in rain, low mileage 05 GT.

Congrats again.

That GT would be a little out of my price range..... Ah but the Shelby now thats in my range.....

Just waiting to see how bad the gouging is going to be. The Ways and Means Committee ( AKA The wife ) has given me approval for MSRP so we'll see once it comes out.

I think your knowledge of safety as it relates to other manufacturers will also be a plus. It will aid the process by making them 'buy' rather than you having to 'sell'.

It's 10 cents a pound so figure about 8 dollars.



What payment method do you prefer?



Congrats Andy, Good luck with the new job
