How to Locate a Car
When dealers do a "locate" its only within your own state or local region, right? is there any way to do a nationwide locate? I've been looking on forddirect.com and searching dealer inventory there - saw one locally that I might consider, but it seems like dark charcoal is the most common/popular interior color. I've seen a couple, though not with the options that i wanted, of the combination of Redfire and Parchment cloth. I even went as far as to enter different zip codes on forddirect for different cities but that is a very tedious job. what I'd really like to find is an 07 Redfire/parchment ( 2nd choice Vista/Parchment) V6 Pony automatic w/interior upgrade and ABS brakes, that's about it. I'm pretty sure they're out there....somewhere...but I don't know how to find it. My other choice would be to order an '08 but i wont get as good a deal. I found one locally that's Redfire/charcoal.

Almost everyone here has a relationship with their dealer. There are also dealers on here.
Pose EXACTLY what you want (every spec) and I'm sure we'll be glad to let you know where one can be found. I'm in Milwaukee, WI and I have 5 dealers right in the area. I drove around a bit today and there are about 100 cars left in inventory at the 3 dealers I passed. Out of those, maybe 10 Redfire. I didn't stop as I wasn't looking for anything in particular, but list some details and I'll make a stop for you.

If I found one say in another state, would that dealer be able to work with my local dealer, or would I be on my own?
As far as Milwaukee, that would be excellent as I'm only 2 hours away. But i checked on forddirect.com and didn't see anything. There was one close to what i wanted over in Janesville. Maybe they have units in stock that are not listed online? I don't know.
Here's what i'd really like to find:
44L auto trans.
54P Pony Pkg
18G Interior Upgrade pkg w/67L or 67D appliques
552 ABS/Traction
Color would be G2 Redfire w/PH parchment or P2 Light Graphite, or second would be G9 Vista w/PH or P2 - I might possibly consider G2 or G9 with JH Parchment Leather.
14A Anti Theft would be nice but I'm not holding out hope.
