****, hate to admit it, but those are a couple of good hogs....Wait a minute, one of them has a hat on.....Guess that money you spent on the weight loss program was wasted, huh, djones.....Well, remember that "a waist is a terrible thing to mind"".............
Got a call from a friend of mine at the Ford Dealer and he told me to get my butt down there fast! The story I got is that there is a dealer that has a bunch, like 14, car dealerships throughout Arizona and he has a centralized site that receives all of the different cars, including several different brands, where he has them cleaned, detailed, brought up to speed and then sends them out to the lots. Apparently saves him a fortune in wages by not having duplicate personnel doing the same thing on each of the car lots.
Anyway, someone from the office, doing a tour of the receivables lot noticed that a truck they had seen before was still in the back of the lot. Checking, they didn't find any record of it being on the inventory sheets, so started a quiet investigation to find out why. Turns out one of the Managers had been using the truck for clandestine rendezvous with his girlfriend so no one (his wife) recognized his own vehicle. This had been going on for quite a while apparently. He ended up fired, divorced and maybe more, don't know.
Well, whatever they were doing, they weren't doing it in the truck, checked it with my UV flashlight and it's clean.
Anyway, the truck was a Ruby Red Metallic 2014 Ford XLT 150 with all the bells and whistles including the tow package I wanted and had 7,240 miles on it. Since it had never been sold, but had the 7000 plus miles, it had to be sold as a "Program" vehicle at a pretty good discount. Anyway, it wasn't the color I wanted, but the hand Lacquered, Camouflage paint job was going to cost too much anyway. I didn't really need the crew cab, but did want the extended cab, so it may be handy with the grand kids.

Now I just have to see about stocking it with hot and col.......Nope, no cold women in my truck.
Anyway, original sticker was $46,000 +/-. I paid $32,995 plus the State bent me over for another $3,000 sales tax and an additional $650.00, for title, license, etc. Because of the circumstances, Dealer prep was waived. Not the best deal I could have gotten if I had had my pistol with me, but I'm OK with it.
Well I know one thing for sure, you're going to see me coming!
