San Francisco Ford

What happened to S&C Ford and South City Ford? Suddenly, all that I see is San Francisco Ford.

Serramonte is in Colma.

South City is South San Francisco.

Oakland is also just on the other side of San Francisco, and just minutes down the highway from Downtown. But you won't catch me going to Oakland any time soon.

So I went there awhile back to buy a truck. I knew what I wanted - a work truck for my dad. Simple, right? A basic, no frills truck. I told the sales guy. He proceeds to parade me through the lot. I stop him and asks why he is showing me what I don't want to buy.

Okay. We go into the office, he introduces me to a sales manager, and again, I say that I want to buy a work truck. Sales manager goes to his office and comes back in a few moments with spec sheets printed off his computer for a bunch of vehicles that I didn't want: a Mustang, a Focus, a Sport Track, and a 500. Everything on the lot except a work truck.

I say to him, "I see that you have work trucks on the lot, are they not for sale?"

He then goes to grab a bunch of keys, and proceeds to show me 5 different F150 trucks that were loaded with every luxury item that they could attach.

So I ask him what would happen to the leather seats when pops climbs in covered in dirt, mud, paint, and/or grime, how my dad was going to enjoy the 6 CD changer from the top of a ladder, and why the old man needed fat bling-bling rims. I point out the white work trucks in the corner and he says that we should go back in and he'll get us info.

Then he shows me a bunch of self generated printouts off of his computer to reason me into believing that it was cheaper to buy the Lariat and that I can not buy a truck without options because every truck had added features. I chose the option of leaving.

Doesn't option mean choice? Isn't an option something that I can choose to have or not?

I bought a truck from another dealership. It seems that every other Ford dealership can sell you a truck, and then add the options on if you option to buy the items.

I'm sure that the "appearance package", engine heaters, and "luxury package" are important to a lot of other people. But I couldn't figure out why engine and windshield heaters were already attached to trucks sold in a city with no snow, except for the fact that the dealer can add another $1,500 to the price of the vehicle.

But the folks at the Line-X shop right next door are great and I would have apply the treatment all of my trucks.
