One of the biggest challenges that I have had recently is finding the right parts for my Ford Mustang. You might take this for granted if you live in a big city, but I moved out of town just a couple of years ago and this has been a big issue for me.
The biggest problem is that there are no Ford parts dealers in any of the surrounding communities. And let me tell you that it is very inconvenient when your car breaks down and you have no where to take it.
What irks me the most is that despite the lack of an “all American” car dealership in the area, there is a Mitsubishi dealer just ten minutes away from my home. You wouldn’t think that you would find one in the middle of nowhere, but there just happens to be one – go figure.
Anyway, I have made a couple of phone calls and I have found someone that can take me to the city tomorrow to pick up the parts I need to fix my car. I guess I should count my skills as a mechanic as a blessing, as I would have to tow the car otherwise.
Next time I move I will have to do some research regarding the car dealerships in the area and pick where I live accordingly.
