Ability to locate a stang with certain options

Just curious.

Does the computer system you all (Ford salesmen) use, allow you to do a wide area search for a Mustang with certain options.

For example: Are you able to locate any/all 2007 Satin Silver coupe GTs with manual transmission, spoiler delete, antitheft, side airbags, 3:55 gears, IUP; and without satellite nor GTAP?

I know with my dads car...the dealer looked up the three most important options...Color, interior color, transmission...came up with a few hits, and then he chose the one he wanted,

Talked to my local saleman about this. He said it was limited to about the 300 closest dealers.

When the 08 order guide comes out around 13 April, if I determine there's nothing worth waiting for on the 2008s then there's no point in torturing myself by waiting anymore.

Your quest for a Stang reminds me of the Movie 40 Days and 40 Nights... I'm amazed that you have made it this far

Good luck man!

A TMS member contacted me and graciously offered to search for a car equipped as above and found one exactly like this, just 275 miles away from me.

Hey Mark, did you give them a call, and get ahold of Chris? Don't keep me in suspense dude!! If you do get it, let me know when your picking it up. If its on a day that I go into work early, I can swing down and say hi!

Jeff, PM sent.

Jesse. Too soon to tell. Earliest that I could get it wouldn't be until 7 April but probably more like 14 April. Got family coming into town on 2 separate weekends and a long business trip between now and then.

I'll keep y'all posted in the Team Mustang Source section in this thread http://forums.bradbarnett.net/showthread.php?t=58224

You can search for any equipment, any color, and package code, in any combination, anywhere in the continental US. As broad or as specific as you wish. That one salesperson should try the 'next 300 dealers' button sometime. You can also configure the search by region, phone area code, and several other options.
