Ricart Ford to make big announcement November 19th...

It’s like in a western movie, when the heroes feel the rumble of hooves rising up from the ground, letting them know that many riders are approaching long before they can be seen. It’s the feeling that builds before you open the door to see what your blind date looks like. It’s like choosing between the box, or the curtain behind Carol Merrill? It’s what Carly Simon sang about in the ketchup commercial. It’s anticipation, and it’s killing me!

Something is coming from Ford, and it sounds, and looks like it is going to be really big. It’s not a new vehicle because the new, better than ever, redesigned 2009 F150 has already arrived at Ricart Ford in The Megamall. It’s not the Ford/Microsoft Sync system being available in even more Ford vehicles this year, because everybody knows that already. It’s not the new that Ford’s quality now rivals, and often surpasses Honda and Toyota because it has been doing that for a while now, and it isn’t really “news” anymore. Nope… it’s not any of these.

So what’s Ford planning that is so huge, so landscape altering, so useful to you right now that you can even now begin to sense its approaching arrival? I don’t know man, but if you go to http://www.ricartfordauto.com/ at 9 a.m. Wednesday morning, November 19th you will find out, and it’ll be big!

See you then!

Ricart Ford has financing available right now!

I am confused. More than just a little bit, I am confused. What I don’t understand is why I keep hearing how hard it is for us all to finance a new car because there are no lenders willing to lend money right now. That’s odd, because I have been seeing 0% interest rate offers from Ford at Ricart Ford in The Megamall on various new Ford vehicles for weeks. I know what you are thinking, “Yeah, but you gotta be approved for that kinda rate… with good credit.”

That is true, you need good credit to get 0%. But you can still get a great rate with average credit, and find financing even with some bruises on your credit past. Believe it or not, people are buying Ford cars, trucks, SUV’s and CUV’s right now, (unless you are reading this in the middle of the night, in which case they will be by in the morning to get their new Ford).

You know, if you think about it, there are plenty of good reasons to buy a new Ford now. One is the quality of your new Ford, which critics say rivals and often surpasses the quality level of Toyota and Honda. Another good reason is what is called the “gas and go” stage of your vehicle ownership experience. That’s when your new Ford is covered under the factory warranty and has full road-side assistance so you basically put the gas in it, change the oil when scheduled, and drive along with no worries like unexpected repair bills and the like. This reason moves from good to great fast if you are currently making payments on an older vehicle.

Finally, the best reason to get a new Ford now is simple. We have been feeling down for a while now, and nothing, and I mean nothing will pull you out of a slump and plaster a smile all over your face like tooling around in a brand spankin’, fresh off the lot smellin’, no worryin’, all heads turnin’ to see, your new Ford!

Seriously… the incentives at Ricart Ford are really good, your experience will always be second to none, our staff really makes you realize you are the most important part of the Ricart Ford Family, and you really, really can get financing right now at Ricart Ford in The Megamall, and getting a new Ford now actually can make a lot of sense for a lot of us.

Reliable Ford value resides at Ricart Ford (Wow, alliteration)

Reliability means many things to us. It means your loyal dog at your feet on a chilly night, or your best friend watching your back in a tough spot, or even Old Faithful doing what geysers do at predictable times to thrill vacationers at Yellowstone Park.

Reliability also means the vehicles you’ll find at Ricart Ford according to the 2008 Consumer Reports Car Reliability Survey, which says, “Almost all Ford models are now average or better… Ford's reliability is now on par with good Japanese automakers.”

The article goes on to rave that the Fusion is among “the most reliable family cars” and has the Focus landing an above average rating. Check for yourself here.

Obviously this is great news for Ford and Ricart, since Ford is our flagship brand, and also for those folks who have said to themselves in the past that they wanted to buy an American car, but they just aren’t as reliable as Japanese cars. Well… actually a Ford is as reliable, costs less, and tends to have more innovations than Pacific Rim cars… and most of all, it’s a Ford!

Reliability does mean many things, and at Ricart Ford in The Ricart Megamall, it means even more value in your new Ford car, truck, SUV, or CUV. So, when you spend your hard earned money on a new Ford at Ricart, it’s worth every penny and so much more… you can rely on that!

Fall Classics, The World Series and Ricart Ford Truck Season

For my money, October is the best time of year for sports. Football is in full gear, hockey and hoops are getting under way, and my favorite, Major League Baseball is preparing to crown their champs. During the baseball playoffs you get to see salted veterans and still wet behind the ears youngsters perform on one of the world’s largest stages, so whether you love the excitement, energy, and promise of the new, or prefer the tried, tested, and true performance of the well known, it’s a great time to be into baseball.

If you’re a truck person, or just need to have a truck, it’s a great time to stop by Ricart Ford in The Ricart Megamall because we have two great performers together on one stage for you too, just like Major League Baseball… the legendary 2008 Ford F150 and the new, redesigned 2009 Ford F150… the solid veteran and the five tool rookie!

For the cagey old vet, the 2008 F150’s you’ll see thousands in rebates and discounts, or rates as low as 0% for 60 months, automatic regular cabs as low as $11,995 with the Ford Credit and Factory Lease term rebates… or $8500 to $11,000 off MSRP on 4X4 Supercabs… or $10,000 to $12,500 off F150 crews… come see us for all the possibilities and full details.

As far as the new 2009 F150’s go, it’s the truck with the heart and heritage of generations of F-series, and the innovations and enhancements which will maintain Ford’s truck leadership for years to come! Use this link to discover why the new 2009 F150 brings value, reliability, style, and much more to your workplace or driveway, ably taking the ball from its predecessor, and carrying the tradition forward. To set up your test drive at Ricart Ford, just give us a call at 866-494-7397.

0% on F-series and Taurus at Ricart Ford

“Nothin’ from nothin’ means nothin’… you gotta have nothin’, if you wanna be with me!”

According to Billy Preston (the true fifth Beatle) in his 1974 song, and more importantly, according to Ricart Ford and Ford Credit recently, nothin’ really means something because there’s a lot of nothin’ happening right now for qualified buyers of new 2008 F-series trucks, Taurus’, or Taurus X’s… no interest for 60 months with financing through Ford Credit.

“Now wait a minute,” I know you are asking yourself, “what about the credit crunch?” If you want a new 2008 F150 through F550 truck, or a new 2008 Ford Taurus or Taurus X, there is no crunch, there’s 0% for 60 months when you qualify through Ford. That’s more like an anti-crunch! A none crunch! A complete lack of crunchiness! Hot oatmeal as opposed to dry corn flakes. You get the idea.

What it all boils down to is this. If you have been thinking about a new Ford F-series truck, or a new Taurus or Taurus X, you can save thousands in finance charges by getting to Ricart Ford in The Ricart Megamall as soon as you can for the best selection, and while you still have time, because this 0% offer ends November 3, 2008.

Oh, and if you are old enough to remember the Billy Preston song, I really am sorry it will be playing in your head for the rest of the day. At least it’s not Melanie’s “Brand New Key”! (“I got a brand new pair of roller skates…”)

Ford MyKey tech coming to Ricart Ford for 2010

When you are a teenager, say sixteen or seventeen years old, there is no rush of freedom quite like when you get the keys to the family car and head out on the road… no Mom, no Dad, no hassles. The problem is, a teen is dramatically more likely to be involved in an accident because teens tend to speed more, fasten their seat belts less, blast their tunes louder, and in general lack the experience most adult drivers are able to acquire over time. Ford, that innovator of automotive technology has come up with a device which will help keep younger drivers safer, giving them the chance to build the skills that only come from being behind the wheel. It’s Ford’s new MyKey, and it will be available as standard equipment at Ricart Ford in the Ricart Megamall starting with the 2010 Ford Focus coupes.

MyKey is designed to allow parents to encourage their kids to learn safer driving skills, as well as increase the fuel economy of their vehicles, and it does it by letting Mom or Dad, Grampa, Uncle Dave, or whoever limit the top speed of the vehicle, the volume of the radio/entertainment system, give earlier warning signals when the vehicle is low on fuel, encourage the use of safety belts, and give audible cues when the car attains specific speeds, like 55 miles per hour. All this should help your younger driver be more aware of how they are driving, enhance their focus while they are tooling around town, and prevent you from having to endure DMX at sonic shrapnel volumes if you are first to start up the car after your youngster has driven it.

MyKey is only one of the ways Ford has been working to help your family drive more safely. Another is Ford’s Driving Skills for Life Website (see it here) which is a gold mine of information and tips for teen drivers, and drivers of all ages. Ricart Ford takes the safety of younger drivers, and all drivers so seriously, we have teamed with The Bloom School of Driving Dynamics in offering one of a kind, hands-on training at The Ricart Megmall. Check out all the details, and sign up for the course on the Bloom Driving Dynamics site.

Ford’s MyKey and Driving Skills for Life, and Ricart Ford’s relationship with Bloom Driving Dynamics are a few more ways that Ricart and Ford continue to build a family experience of vehicle ownership for all of our customers. After all, everyone wants to keep their family members as safe as possible when they're on the road.
