I'm driving down from the Ventura Area in my 2005 Mustang.

We will be coming from the Central coast area as well, and passing through the Ventura area on Friday Morning.

Bad97, small world. I just picked the Mustang and Fastfords magazine yesterday. I was reading the article on the vertical doors last night. They did some serious cutting. You were brave! Do the vertical doors leak water or air? They look sweet.

I work up to your area about twice a month. In fact I ordered my 2005 Mustang at Lompoc Valley Ford back in November and it was shipped March 16th. It arrived at the railhead in LA a few days ago. So, I should be getting a call from Ricardo the salesman any minute now!

I live and primarily work in the Camarillo area. You will be driving right through Camarilllo on Hwy 101. There is a In-N-Out Burger off the Carmen exit if you would like to have a shake and fries and have a pit stop. I'd like to check out your ride. I won't be driving down to Knott's until Sunday morning early. greg

gonna try to make it....do i have to pay money to get into the show...i dont want to go to the theme park, just want to chill with some fellow stangers....

Ford show is free. 35 bucks to enter vehicle. Car entry is probably sold out by now. Parking at Knott's is about 6-8 bucks. I believe you can park at the Sears store(?) across the street and walk over. Might save you some cash. I'll be there, 2005, Mineral Grey GT coup.

Greg congrat's on your new ride, P.M. me your number and maybe we can stop by the In-out burger, on the way, i don't see why we can't.

Cool! My girlfriend, Sue, probably did the finance work on it. Enjoy the new ride!

We will be at Knott’s too.

Justnlx, nope....no financing...wrote 'em a check on the spot. I am grateful to the dealership for taking the X-plan pricing. Rico the salesman was very good. Sales manager could use a personality makeover. Bit of a jerk if you ask me. Rude guy actually. Everyone else was great. Among other things the Sales Manager tried to stick me for some sort of coating on the paint for 200 bucks. I told them ahead of time not to wash it or anything. He could have left the plastic on it for all I care. He went on to say at lenght it was required that ALL cars he sold had the coating. BS! I ended up paying X-pricing plus tax and license...period.

I have 1,000 smiles so far since March 31st. This mustang exceeds my expectations. Got my first ding yesterday. A big ass pipe flipped up from the next lane on the 101 and dinged me. Not real bad but OUCH none the less.

I will be driving down to Knotts from Camarillo Sunday morning early if you know anyone that wants to caravan? greg

Reminder, Put your rearview mirror Knotts entrance pass in the car now. I
can't tell you how many people get there each year and forget the pass at home.
No entry pass, no ENTRY! Period, end of story.

Parking at Knott's is free up to 3 hours.

EyeOfTheStorm · 04-14-2005

We'll be there.

bbqpony · 04-15-2005

Free parking will will up in no time. Parking at Knott's is about 8 bucks. If you want to save money. Park at the Mall across the street and walk across to the show.
