Whaaat? :bs: Even the IRS allows 50 cents a mile as a writeoff! This dealer is pathetic. If they would not offer a dollar a mile or better, they were totally d1Ēking with you.

Yes, you want to keep burning off the old fuel and keep the battery charged. A battery tender is OK for a few weeks but I would not leave a battery on "trickle" for six months.

The trend began a year or two ago to "not bother" including a CD player in automobiles. CDs are 30 year old technology and becoming seen as stodgy to USB-era shoppers.

I see no reason why incentives would be offered on 2012s. The car is outselling the Mustang and meeting expectations.

It's fortunate enough that 2011s have incentives, which does show that the...

That's one aspect of this which seems very unpredictable ... some dealers dislike ordering extra cars, and some dislike making swaps with other dealers.
