About 1.5 years ago I went to the Mazda dealer here in Lancaster looking at 6s and 3s for my ex-gf, and by talking to me he figured out I knew something about cars. The interesting thing is that he actually KNEW something about the cars and he spent most of his time telling me how much the mazda's have in common with ford and how that was such a good thing. He knew all the platform sharing and everything. He praised the contours and focuses in fact. He didn't even mention the great fit and finish on the mazdas (which it is MUCH better than ford). If i would ever decide to buy a car at a dealership, I would definately go to this place, I was very impressed. On the other hand, EVERY ford dealership I go to doesn't no anything about anything. They always try and make up these stupid statistics about cobra's and saleens and stuff. I don't bother respecting them or anything, I just tell them right away that they are wrong, then I tell them what the correct info is, and then I leave

If I were buying a new car now, I'd stay away from all FoMoCo products, due to the huge quality control problems they've had over the last few years. They may be coming out of it now, but for a while there they were making even Chrysler look good, quality-wise.
a friend who is a mechanic at the local chrystler dealership has differing opinions on chrystler quality, not to say he doesn't like some of the cars though.

Heyhey, be carefull on what you say. I'm a car salesman (yes at 20yrs old) and I do know what i'm talking about when someone walks in and wants to buy a 300 or a Dodge SX2.0. I wont [censored] them. And aftersales service, I do my best for my clients to be happy with their purchase. Some dealers dont care about customers, but others do!
