My wife got me started collecting Dept. 56 pieces a few years back. It started off with the Ford dealership when I was working in sales at the local Ford dealership. You'll notice that the non-Ford product is either in a shop, at the Ford dealership being traded in, on their way there or on a tow truck. These things aren't cheap.

 

one more

 

That's pretty cool.

 

sweet! beats our santa's workshop thing that we stick out every year :P

 

I have the Ford dealership on display in my home office all year round. I also have the same Chevy being towed by the tow truck.
My collection has spilled over into 1st Gear trucks as well as other odd ball Ford vehicles.

 

Found this at Wal-Mart today. Not exactly a Dept. 56 piece but what can I say, it had me written all over it. HAHA

 

My wife bought me a Ford Lionel train set for under the tree. Its pretty cool, set it up every year!

 

Thye aren't going to get to many mustang and tbirf sales in that snowy weather! No wonder there are three still on the lot!

 

Great display and the Drive-in adds a nice extra touch.
