Default do you think the dealers will let me????????

Well i just got my license the other day and i'm planning on going to a ford dealer tomorrow to check out the mustangs. I was just wondering that do you think the dealers will let me take a test drive in the v6 and/or the v8??

From my days selling cars, unless your parents are with you, don't even try.

If you are under eighteen you really have no chance IMO; you never know with some people I might add.

Bring your parent,I think its your best shot. They will take you more serious. That's if you are under 18.

as others have said, don't bother unless you bring a parent.

I sell Fords. You have to convince the salesperson that you are a buyer, not just a looker. It is common that a teen will shop for a car alone, then bring back a parent on the second visit to buy. Any salesperson who is smart will treat you well and offer a demo if you make them think you are serious about buying. They will make a copy of your lic. and probably call you a few times when you don't come back to buy.
