Midway Ford, KC
Just wanted to relay a good truck-buying expirience...
I bought my 99 Lariat from Paul Barr. Great guy. This place only sells trucks, from F150's to big-rigs. They don't have many F150's on the lot, they are mainly a fleet-truck place. I stopped in and talked to Paul about what I was looking for. He keyed in all my options into his computer, and when he was done, he turned the screen so I could see. It showed the sticker price and the dealer cost less destination charges. He asked how much I thought he should make, and I said $250-350 was reasonable. He asked if $300 was good and I said fine. We ordered it that day, and in about a month, they had it ready. The Ford plant is about 3 miles away, and the odometer had 3.4 miles on it when I picked it up. I paid about $4,500 under sticker. I've been in for warranty work and routine maintenance, and I've had no trouble at all with them. They have replaced my signal mirrors and done some body work (painted some taillight covers and bug shield) and have done nice work. Very nice people to deal with.
