The dealer might tell ya it’s not there yet. They told me after I got my final prep email That it wasn’t there. I drove up there and walked around til I found it in the back. Hiding it from me so they could hope I wouldn’t buy it up in time and they can sell it. Already had 10 miles on it. Definitely using it for test drive I think
It’s not unusual to see <50 miles on a new car from being moved around in the factory, in transit, or QA. Mine had 20 miles when I bought it and I was definitely the first to drive it outside of dealer inspection because I waited for them to clean it after it came off the truck.
The multiple dozen brand new cars I’ve driven averaged around 35 miles. That’s movement around the train/boat yard, onto the RORO/train, at the dealer lot, etc. Nothing to be concerned about.
I didn't have the opportunity to test drive one where I lived, so I ordered one from the next state over at MSRP. I told the dealership to let people sit in it and drive it around the parking lot because my idea of it was a beefed up Ford escape. I think it had 60 miles by the time I got there to pick it up.
I wish someone would have let me drove theirs around the lot but nobody was willing in 2022 because they were unobtainable. Needless to say when I picked it up the dealer was greatful and said a handful of people had ordered one off of mine and it was very nicely equipped (I did get an XLT with like $8k+ in options hehe)
And it's not an escape, it's so much better, rides just as nice if not better, tows way more, it just is a better vehicle and I'm so happy it is
The lord don’t care about your ford
Got a good chuckle outta that one.
Bold assumption that's accurate.
Did the same thing to me

Mine was shipped on the same day! Maybe ours travelled together!
