Been researching trucks for weeks trying to find something I like within my budget. Searched many web sites looking at many dealers and what they have in stock. Talked to salesmen on the phone and by email several times getting prices and descriptions of trucks. So today the wife and I pick out 3 trucks we like and head out 50 miles south to the first dealership. Had to watch what roads we took because of flooding in the area but we need to go now to get the rebate that ends on the 14th.
Call the first salesman and tell them we are on the way. Get there and where is the truck. It's in the shop for a bad sensor. OK but can we at least show it to my wife. "Sure" Get in the shop and they have the right head off the motor. Truck has less than 50 miles and they are deep into this 5.3 to do repairs. Still trying to figure out what sensor requires the head to come off to replace said sensor.
Well ok you have a loaner truck for sale with 3700 miles lets look at it. We look for over 30 minutes for the truck. Where is it? You guess it. In the shop with the whole dash out of it. Looking at the truck it looks wrong for some reason. After being told it's a new never titled truck so it would not have a carfax. I find the carfax on our phone. Sure enough. Moderated damage to the right front and right rear due to sideswipe. This thuck is not only broken it has been wrecked.
As I was leaving I told my wife loud enough for everyone to hear. Lets go to XXX dealer. Maybe they have some trucks that are not broken or had past wrecks.
So now we head 50 miles west to the second dealer. Get there and truck has 4500 miles on it. I asked I thought this was a new truck. Listed as new on your web site. OH this is a service loaner we are selling. I would have bought this truck had he told me in advance.
But by now I have such a bad taste in my mouth we just left and went home. 150 miles and a day wasted.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
