The name brings to mind old rock n rollers, but nope it's
Mustang and Thunderbirds
Ford is touring the new bird and Bullitt.
Any one been to the tour at your local Ford dealer. They were in SLC today.
They let people drive the Bullitt (#36) and T-bird. Mike drove the bird. Said it's nice but of course prefers the Bullitt.
Several folks from our club and others brought their ponies out for a little show and shine.
I didn't go, was sleeping after a long night shift.
They gave out t-bird CDs with a lot of historical, promotional, marketing stuff and a jazz music CD.
When Mike was driving the t-bird, the Ford salesman asked him what cars he has. Mike mentioned he had brought our Bullitt to the display at the dealership. The salesman asked "did you buy it at our dealership" Mike told him NO because when his wife (me) called inquiring about buying a Bullitt last February she (me) was told "we have a nice red one." True story - Bullitts weren't even being manufactured yet and they certainly don't come in RED!
But it went over the salesman's head - he responds to Mike with "she didn't want red?"
DOH! What a doofus! Then he says to Mike "I'm going to order a Bullitt in a couple of months when I can use my Ford discount plan." Mike told him they aren't taking orders anymore.
Don't you think a salesman who earns his living selling these cars would know a little bit? DOH!
