The one that really loses is Ford, as they are not benefiting from the public's driving up prices at all.
True, but the GT500 will be plentiful, it is not a limited run from Ford, 9K+ units are planned with 2008 being delayed, more may be produced.

If people had patience, we'd all win....dealers, Ford, customers. If people feed into the hype for this 4000 lb boat, which is currently happening...it will continue to happen.

I'll give a dealer a few grand over list for the newest piece of bling. But when they rape the consumer, I hope people stay away in droves. Let the GT500 sit on the lots and cost them money.
