Wait, what, fix or repair when. No Dodge trolls allowed on a Ford forum......

The question here being- how do you know what walrus tit smells like to make that comparison????

When the ford dealer crashed my 2004 F150. I was given a tempo as a loaner. I agreed to this right after i got the phone call that my truck was crashed so i was in shock. After a few minutes of sitting down and realizing the nicest truck i ever owned had been in its first wreck i was like screw that. I called back and they said we have no loaner trucks available. I asked the girl (who i treated well thru all of this because she was just the messenger ) to look out the window i am not picky i would take anyone of the 50 plus trucks on there lot. I brought you a truck i want a truck to drive was my thinking. After a lot of back and forth they put me in a 2010 F150 which is the reason i started looking for a new truck. So I do not understand why they would put someone in a competitors model. When i bought my 2012 the window had a chip. When i brought it in to get replaced they put me in a brand new explorer. Funny how my wife wants a new explorer now. If i owned a dealer i would make that one of my rules no competitors models given out or used as rentals. Put your product in the customers head not the others.

Oh come on now, they're not THAT bad! In fact, just yesterday I stopped by a Ram dealer to look at the 2013s...I gotta tell ya, if I weren't a Ford man thru and thru, it would certainly be my second choice...as I will NEVER buy a GM product.

I bought my girlfriend a brand new 1500 loaded SLT 4.7 manual back in '04 (I couldn't help it, they were giving them away) and she's in love with that truck. It's never given her any problems and it's pushing 100K now. I like those RAM trucks but I own stock in Ford now, if her truck nosedived of course I would talk her into an F-150, but I seriously think she'd lobby for another RAM...she's bummed they don't make the manual any longer.

Your NEW truck is broken...but the running truck with no coolant leaks is a POS?

Way back when I wrecked my 06 Cummins and insurance payed for everything and yes even the rental car, go to the rental place and they handed me the keys to a POS dodge neon, drove the piece of junk for 4 days and hated every minute of it but I dealt with it because it was free. I'm sure you can last a week driving that dodge.
Personally I don't see an issue with his complaint. Hell, he bought a $50 something thousand dollar truck and they give him a cheap Dodge. For the price he paid for a Raptor he should get something equivalant.

Who cares what he payed for his truck, Ford could have said rent you're own damn truck but no they were nice and rented him one and then he gets on a forum and starts crying about it, how it's nice as nice as his raptor. Hell no it's not as nice, it's a damn rental. I'm sure he can suck it up and deal with it for a week, well atleast I could. If you think that he should get something of equal value, something is seriously wrong with you.

You can always just rod the **** out that rental! Your name isn't on that rental. At the end of the week just flip the keys back to Enterprise and say thanks.

At one point during my 30+ days of truck being at the dealership I was given a 2011 VW Beetle, lime green to drive. No *****, my wife has a pic of me driving it somewhere.

Of course the day I got it I was our union meeting night.

I parked in the way back.
