Darn full moons bringing out the crazy people. Haha
In other words you are busy looking at **** again!
I have been through Braham many times and that is for sure one of the smaller dealers around. I bet they can give you a pretty good deal. Always good to buy from a local business when you can especially when you need warranty work done if it is a new truck you are buying..

<p>Good afternoon everyone. </p><p>Checked out the little Ford dealer in Braham today. By far the smallest dealer I've ever laid eyes on, their new car inventory is about a dozen vehicles. The salesman described his job as "Sales, Service, and Janitor". Friendly folks, but I wonder if they can afford to give me any kind of deal when the time comes. </p><p>Asked to look at one of the new F150s, so he retrieved the key for me and sent me out there by myself to check it out. Was kind of neat being able to check out a new truck without being pestered by a salesman who typically knows less about the thing than I do. </p><p>We'll see. Hope my wife finds gainful employment soon so I can get a little more serious about it! </p>

As much as I like to support the smaller dealers - I won't be buying a new vehicle from the one in my town again.... I could have got my truck at least a thousand cheaper by going to a larger dealer and my truck would have been built a couple weeks earlier as well...
Plus - they effed up and did not get the heated seats that I asked for.. I threatened to cancel the order when we were already "in production" and my salesman checked and found out that I did have that option, however, if I did cancel, he would lose his job because the dealership could not afford to eat it... Not one to put another 60+ year old man out of a job, we accepted the truck..

The salesman told me that he had two crew cabs out there at the moment, and in all likelihood they'd still have both of them in two months.

Down at dctc. A friend of mine co-drove the car as well. She did damn good for 2 drivers worth of hot laps in a row!

Good morning Jim, Dave, Jay, Chris and the rest of the Minnesota gang... Sure would be nice camping weather eh?
Dave - the camper looks nice on the web... Did you redo the floor in the kitchen and living room or was it always like that?
