On Saturday I used the Ford web site to request internet quotes from several local dealers. Within a few hours I had received calls from 4 of them. Part of one call seemed a little odd. Here is an approximation of part of that call.
--------------
Sales: ... so if we don't have what you want in stock, we can get it within a few days.
Me: Really?
Sales: Yes.
Me: So that must be from another dealer? Because I doubt you could get one from Mexico in a few days.
Sales: ...l o n g p a u s e... No, we couldn't get one from Mexico in a few days.
Me: So you could get one from another dealer?
Sales: From another dealer or from central stock.
---------------------
So I'm sure you will all be glad to know that there is a central warehouse full of Fiestas just waiting to be ordered by dealers to fill customer requests.
I'm thinking somewhere in kansas.
