Gee caught with my guard down
They have changed that test so much no I am not even sure what the parts are called now. Back when I took it it was something like 19.5 hours over two and a half days and calculators were not allowed.

If the deal is financed, I believe the MSO goes to the bank. In any case, the title is cut by the state of registration when the customer goes for his plates.
wait for it...
Does anybody want to sell me a Corvette today?

And he needed a gang of salesmen to intimidate you? Sounds like a typical bully to me. I bet you could have cleaned his clock.

In AZ, if you were to buy a car and take it to VA,you would pay the 4% VA tax here,plus the city and county tax for AZ.
Your buyers order would show the tax paid,so VA can't collect it twice.
On a new or used car,we would give you an AZ title,which you would give to the VA DMV.

The dealer put a "temp" NC plate on car, bill of sale, NC registration etc.
We received the new VA license plates in the mail in 2 weeks along with vehicle registration then went and had the VA state inspection done.
Real smooth and flawless and one helluva a convience for us.
Don't see the problem here. The NC dealer was setup for this and "happens all the time". Altho it was a Lexus dealer.

Why would you have even thought of returning the car until they refunded your down payment? I’m sure you won’t do that again.

BATAVIA — A dispute between Ford Credit Co. and Mike Ognibene Ford has caused acting state Supreme Court Justice Robert C. Noonan to issue a seizure of assets order against the dealership, forcing it to close.

I'd like to see that too but I'll let you foot the bill. That's only fair since it's going to be your car.

I currently get a supplier discount, and am wondering if I can be adopted by a GM employee....if that is much more of a discount.
S2000s are nice... a friend of mine had one.. license plate "NO TORK"
They have what, 300hp and 40lb-ft of torque?
I'm doing a little testing of nitrogen. You can read about it and leave comments at Nitrogen: A Noble Gas?
If I have a MSO I can title the car in my name with no problems. A less then scrupulous Person could get the MSO, put a stop payment on his check, and go title the car in his name. Then say, "What do you mean its not my car? I have the title right here in my hand.
If there is to be a lien on a out of state deal I charge the person taxes based on the state they will be titling the car in and then forward the BOS, MSO, and a check for the taxes I collected to there County Clerk/DMV, or who ever handles it in there state.
That is how we get our lien recorded. We have 15 days to do what is called "Perfect" the lien. if we do not perfect our lien then the lender can make us pay off the contract.
Now there are exceptions I guess to every rule. For instance my parents have driven in from Idaho to buy a 2008 Taurus that I ordered for them. Seeing it is my folks I will just give them all the paper work and let them go to the clerks office when they get home.
I envy the dealers who are allowed to just give the paper to the customer and tell them to handle it. It would be much smoother that way.
Exactly you just don't have MSOs out. Well over half our deals are cash and we have never given a MSO to a person for an in state or out of state deal. The MSO isn't even at this office it is at the main office where all the other paperwork is sent. That office collects and processes everything then sends the necessary paperwork to the DMV. If it is a cash deal the DMV will send the owner the title in a few weeks.
Joel! How could you do this! Have you no shame! A Ford Five Hund.. er I mean Taurus for your own parents! Sent them down here to see me. I'll give them a deal on an Avalon. "Kids don't let their parents drive Fords!"

The Taurus got a better safety score too.

Hey, what are the cops going to drive when the Crown Vics go away?
I think they will start to drive Dodge Chargers ... at least, that is what my town police are getting, along with Expeditions for winter crime fighting.
Aspen used to use Saabs for their police.
He has a car across the parking lot at the detail department that he needs to put gas in so he calls the detail guy and asks him to drive the car under the awning so he won't get wet.
Our detail guy laughs and says yeah sure I will do it how much you gonna pay me.
This is too funny they are now negotiating over the phone. Updates to follow...
The Taurus, like the Fusion is as good as anything Honda makes and better then anything Toyota has to offer.
Not to mention it is the safest car on the road.
It is also twice the car the 500 is. I own a 500 and I drove my parents new car home last night. I am very impressed
maybe the extra bling will overcome the bland factor, but I always thought it was a more practical choice for many people than a 300 V6 was, just without the style (but at least you could see out of it!)
the Fusion was nice too. i considered one before I got my Accord. It did drive nice, but I never understood the silly power seat with a manual recline.

My Solara was built in Georgetown, Kentucky and I gotta tell you they did a nice job. Sun rising in KY.
Did they put an engine in the Ahem..Mullaly..Taurus yet. I liked the 500 styling, but a 4.9 would make it a seller. The slightly higher stance is good for old folks as ease of entry gets tougher with age.

I don’t have a problem with him selling a Ford to his parents. However, since they know him, I wonder how long they had to “grind” him to get to the price they wanted. Did you notice that he never said a word about that ! :shades:

No actually it is real easy when you are a Blue Oval Dealer and can give your folks a D-Plan.
You sell them, so that's the right attitude.
Let's see what they are worth in three years.
However, the only thing that would prevent me from pulling the trigger is the lack of a 'manumatic' feature for the 6-speed transmission. Isn't that the transmission that Ford and GM co-developed?
I know that in the Saturn Aura (with the 3.6L engine), there are paddles on either side of the steering wheel that can be used to shift up or down.
But, I know the Taurus can be had with AWD - quite useful here in Colorado!
Wow, you really have trust issues!
When you finance, the bank insists on rolling the taxes into the transaction, so the dealership used a tax service to get my Texas tags (which were in my mailbox within a week), or I paid AZ taxes (AZ does not have tax agreement with TX) and paid the difference when I came home.
Paid cash by personal check a week before. Signed all the paperwork by Fedex. My checked cleared in three days. Drove home with temp CO tags. Dealership would also accept a wire, but no cashiers or certified checks on a Texas bank.
Honda loves to play that card, and on the average Joe Consumer it is probably real easy to get them to believe that it relates back to 100% quality. But as you and I both know it has to do with supply and demand, and as long as we stay in bed with the rental car companies the value of our cars will always suffer.
If we were to do soley retail on our cars and sell none to rental companies/fleet sales our units would be worth much more at trade in time to.
