No offense, but why in the hell would you want to take your car to any dealership? They will been you over on their pricing, and yes your right Ford customer service is about the worst as it gets. I too personally have had my conflicts. If you want me to direct you to a shop in Manassas, just let me know.

There is a little thing known as a (so-called) warranty. Independant shops don't honor the warranty, even less than the dealers!

Yeah, I'm going that route. I've written Ford a two page letter detailing all the hassle and naming all the dealerships that have screwed things up since 2000! Hopefully I'll get some retribution.

Warranty!?!?, yeah that's what they call it. All it means is that you don't have to pay a cent for repairs, but you have to eat all the crap they can shovel at you. Grrrr...

Speaking of independent shops... can people recommend good independents in the DC area? I bought my SVT from CarMax with a 3 year warranty and I have been able to take it to any shop to get work down. I found one AWESOME independent shop, but it was in nothern New Jersey when my water pump impellar disintigrated on the GW Bridge in NY.
It seems to me that independents are they way to go if you do not have a Ford warranty. They survive off the quality of their work.
