But I'll still do it anyway. You dont know exactly where I live, but I know exactly where YOU live!! So... try ME.Yup, winter storm warning for us, supposed to change over to all snow this afternoon.

We have till 6 to bring it back today. It now has a little under 160 miles on it, and it has prooven it's test drive over the last few days. She loves it!
She asked me to come with her to the dealership this afternoon to talk some numbers on the price to buy it. We decided "not" to trade in a windstar as we would only get 300 bucks for it!
We'll sell it ourselfs and hopfully make over a grand with it.
Sticker price off the Mariner is 34K, which in both are minds is way way to much for a small SUV like that. My uncle works for Ford and has given us a PIN number to save her money on an A plan. I don't know if you can wheel and deal anymore using A plan, but we'll soon find out. It would be very nice if we can get the price down to 25 or 26K, which seems about right for this SUV.
So if numbers work in our favor today, the suv will stay at the dealership until Monday when that TSB is performed, then we can pick it up soon after.
I have a good feeling thigns are going to work out and yet we will have another ford in the fam!

I was hoping for more then 4-8 :-( I want snow upwards of 18-24 inches like the snow belt is going to get through sunday! Maybe I'll have to drive out Sunday afternoon to the snow belt and plow my way through the roads and see exactly how this AWD does in heavy wet snow! lol!
