He said he had a meeting. But now that you say it, it does seem like he had cold feet. My plan was to follow up tomorrow. I hope it really was a meeting and not cold feet. At least that way I don't have to overcome anymore objections.

Wow. Kind of surprised they'd have an XL on the showroom. My dealership doesn't put anything less than a lariat out there.

Yeah, I never know what they mioght have in the showroom when I stop in for work on the truck. The one day I went in and they had a Harley edition F150, 2 Shelby GT 500's, a mustang GT in the showroom. And flanking the showroom outside they had 2 F150 Raptors. I went ans sat back down in the waiting area for the service department so I wouldnt do something expensive again.

All you can do is call. Thats a part of sales. Rejection is just a part of it so dont get discouraged.

You want a Raptor Shaun. Drive down the Devon's dealership and get one!

I am sure you can Devon. I just about have the current one paid off and I am planning on sitting on it for a bit to save some cash for an eventual down payment on a nice new diesel powered crew cab Super Duty.

Probably smart. The 1st year 6.4 has a pretty poor reputation. (Although I do like the interior upgrades they did for that year)
