I went to Loman Ford in Woodbridge,NJ last Friday where there are lots of surrounding highways - great for manual drivers. Funny thing is they had 2 automatics and no manuals on the lot.
the Saleperson I was talking to complained that people where turned off that they where not manuals.
Today, I went to a nearby Ford dealership (Island Ford) here in Staten Island, NY. Here on Staten Island there is way too much traffic and every single corner has a red light - horrible and annoying for manual drivers, even my friends who swear on them hate driving them on this island. Island Ford only got two manuals on the lot and no automatics, the dealer didn't even know that a automatic is an option. Today the saleperson was complained that people are turned off because they are not automatics. (I loved the Torch Red :D)
These two dealerships should swap the cars, I was told the sales guy in Island Ford that it was funny because Loman can't get rid of theirs cause they only have automatics and people there are looking for manuals, and they have manuals and no one wants a manual here in SI.
