Ford Show At Eastgate July 14th 2007 - Canadian ST - 07-14-2007

Well Id go if Eastgate was'nt the worst dealership in Canada, prob the world :angry: Im still bitter about the crap service I received with my 05 ST. Ive boughten 3 cars from there and they still tried to dick me around with warrenty issue's. Well thats why I go to Gemini...less BS :D

Interesting comments: you don't seem to be alone in your opinion.

According to internal Ford Canada measurements, so far this year (as of end June), out of 16 dealers in their district ...

Eastgate is ranked 2nd in Sales Satisfaction, but 14th in Service Satisfaction.

Gemini is ranked 3rd in Sales Satisfaction and 4th in Service Satisfaction.

BTW - Highbury Ford is last in both categories in this district.

Just so I know for next year....You say ya came late. Did most of the cars leave before the pics were taken or was there a lousy turnout?

Ford Show At Eastgate July 14th 2007 - oldeguy - 07-15-2007

So what's the Blue four door thing that looks like a Probe? The 2015 Focus?

Well it was trying to rain on and off, I showed up around 12, looked around and took off. Passed by a few hours later and got to see gfxman07's ride, very nice btw! And as I passed by the second time a few cars were leaving, so I assume not everyone wanted their classics getting wet, it's understandable. Ah well, maybe next year the weather will be on their side.

The Lot was packed ,there was food ,pop and alot of cool cars there ,more oldies .As soon as the trophie's were handed out ,most of everyone left as the weather was not the greatest and windy.If they had more 1,2,3, trophy hand outs per classes I'm sure the two focys would had grabbed them .That blue car was a concept car ,no motor in it and it has been in Westgates show room for the longest time,kinda cool lookin .I ended up with two tickets (freebies from Lance) for the Ti-Cat game Sat evening which was a suprise ,ended up givin them away (LOL).
All in all it was a pretty good turn out and I will plan to do it again if theres one in August some time.Gotta get my tint done sooon.
Nikiter we should hook up for the next one and hope to get there earlier too.Darn traffic.

Ford Show At Eastgate July 14th 2007 - NefCanuck - 07-16-2007

Does anyone have a listing of shows @ Ford dealers in & around the GTA?

I know of the Dixie Ford event in Sept, I even think my dealership had one last year (Erinwood Ford) but I found out about it too late to show...
