Thumbs up Bad news about my car turns into great news!!

Well Everyone,

If you didn't read my "My car is never being delivered!" thread, I was one of the 18 vehicles that had to be scrapped. Well I am sending out a BIG THANK YOU to Jeff (05fordgt) and the higher ups at Ford because I am getting my car (sort of). They found my exact car at another dealership and it has already been delivered to Jeff. I am picking it up Saturday June 26th!!! When I talked to Ford management they were doing everything they could to either rush a new order through or locate a vehicle. Well the latter happened and I can't wait to take delivery!

Jeff took a couple quick pics when it was delivered today....

I wish they'd scrap mine, I'd probably get one quicker that way, like you did.

Believe it or not only 65 miles! Jeff tried to get it on his own but the dealer was going to give it up. So with Jeff's help I got a hold of higher ups at Ford and they help make the trade happen.

That is outstanding. Ford and Jeff really turned a sour experience into a winner. Congrats.

That is really great. I'm happy that Jeff and Ford did whatever it took to get you your car asap. Now when are you going to go pick it up?

Saturday the 26th. I would have loved to been able to get it tomorrow, but I have to work and Jeff is installing the "carbon fiber" CDC light bar I purchased, so that will be done the first of the week. It is also a 300+ mile ride for me to Lansdale, Pa.

Check the VIN. . . it's probably really his car and "scrapped" was just an excuse for "lost."

Jeff is a class act. I think we're all happy for you, Rick.
