I hate when the dealers only give you a half a tank of gas.

Congrats and POST SOME PICTURES when you get off your high!!! That may be sometime next year if it was me.

The dealer did fill it for me. I was there when they filled it and they did not have a problem. So it was filled twice with no problems.

When I ordered my car the order form said that my car will come with 2 U.S. gallons of gasoline. Considering it is over 25g's I would think that Ford could fill my tank up with atleast half a tank. hehe just making the car cheaper, little things.

I had a charge on my order for 3 gals. I'm guessing that was for the factory to start it and test it. My dealer did give me a full tank a gas.

They better fill the tank, you will be receiving a Ford Questionaire shortly in the mail. And one of the questions is?

Did the dealership fill the tank?

The sales guys sweat the load until that thing is fillout and returned!! Make em sweat a little.....No gasy, no happy buyer!!

To some, these "Just got mine" posts may seem repetative, but when I read these posts, it always puts a smile on my face. Brings me back to when I first started it up and drove off the lot at the dealer... how exciting it was and how extra careful I was so nothing bad would happen to my new baby!

Congrats on your your new ride!

Sooooo, make with the details already? Coupe? Vert? GT? Don't hold out!

Ditto!!! Most of us went through (or are still going through) months of waiting, and it is always great to here about someone's "dream" coming true.

Oh wait... I do have to disagree with one statement about "how extra careful I was". When I left the dealer's lot, I left some Pirelli dust on the sidewalk and road. I had too, I couldn't help myself.
