looking for a ford!!!!!!

i just want to say, thanks to mcraymond3. i just bought my f-450 from him and this deal has went as smooth as could go. mat was great to deal with and he did not leave a detail out . my truck should be here in nj by tomorrow, and i could not be happier. i was a little nervouse about dealing out of state, and was thinking what could go wrong will. well, dealing with mat nothing went wrong. everything he said, came true, and much more. mat will get every ford i buy in the future. if you guys are looking for someone who is a man of their word, mat is your man.

little backround on mat, he used to be an outerlimits guy, i know we wont hold that against him. no worries, he is now a cigarette man. mat is in north carolina, at sanders ford, give him a ring if you are looking. it will be worth your time. i had to order this truck as a cab and chassis, so i had to special order the class 5 hitch, the body, and the extra midship fuel tank that gives the truck almost 80 galls fuel capacity. mat put some time in on this deal.. here are a few pics of it at manning shortly after the body was put on. i love it and cant wait till sat for her to be here. once again thanks mat....... dave stecz

Ahhhhhhh.....I see said the blind man. It's a type of "headache rack" with a twist.

The good news is I now know what you've been asking about. The bad news is I still can't get it from any of my warehouses.

BUT...I would be more than happy to contact a distributor for you and use my resale number to get one for you at wholesale cost if you want. Again, only if you want to. ;)

Hey, isn't it past your bedtime of something?

Hey! All I can say is SWEET!!! That is a nice looking truck and I have no doubt at all that you are going to absolutely love it! You are also going to love the extra fuel capacity with that huge mid-ship tank. It is worth every penny! I know that you have to be really excited. I am just like you when it comes to getting a new toy. I can't sleep the night before either! Congratulations!

Very nice Dave :) Just wondering .... what method of transportation does Mat use for getting the truck to it's final home ... in this case NC to NJ? Today will be a nice day in NJ no matter how cold it is right now ... ehy?! :D

stecz20 08-07-2004 02:04 AM

Re: looking for a ford!!!!!!
 
nice little break in the weather is nice, since what has been in the past week. well, im lucky in this case a buddy of mine is bringing the truck up while passing through. i was hoping that id get to go down and spend the weekend with mat and his family, but timing was not in the cards this time around. im sure mat can arrange any kind of transportation for new cars to be delivered. i was just lucky one of my drunken buddies just passing through......lol

Hopefully he sobered up long enuf to drive it home for ya! lol :D

Man .... and this w/e with the Fountain/OL thing woulda been a nice w/e to coordinate a road trip and come home with that prize! That's got the PS Diesel right? Break in the weather??? Down in South Jersey it's really been incredibly nice temp wise this summer. Hardly a day over 90 and decent humididity ... Park Ridge and Nawth Joisey have been brutally humid in comparison ((I've heard rumors LOL))), but down at the joisey shore ... it's been sweeeet. I'm in Fairlawn, NJ right now.

Re: looking for a ford!!!!!!
 
yes, this one has the new 6.0.... yeah, kinda sucks i could not have gone down there but, hey at least i got the prize....lol weather up here has been pretty good all summer. last week has reminded us again that its summer. last few nights turned the a/c off and opened the windows. its kinda like being at the shore...lol man your up late tonight...... dave

you are the man will, and to you rags, your a punk. as always.......

i want to say what a pleasure dealing with mat from sanders ford was. how often do you meet people that do what they say at the time they say it, with no problems. well, today came and went , and the truck showed up when it was supposed to, on the day it was supposed to be here with no problems. i had a long day with it and did not want to get out of her. all i can say is wow, im impressed, with the 6.0s power, and the all around quality of the truck. im a ford guy to begin with but when this thing pulled into the driveway, it was impressive. ill post some new pics of her tomorrow, too tired now.

once again, i want to thank mat for just doing what he promised, you were great to deal with, and honest. thank you. hope all is well and talk to you soon. dave

They say that great minds think alike. The Cigarette plate was the first thing I bolted on my 450 as well. :D :p I can't tell you how glad I am that you like the truck. I would have seriously felt bad if I had steered you wrong. Congratulations once again. It looks great!
