Start mild rant...
Took my '12 GT500 in for an oil change today. The guy (approx 25-30) behind the desk in the service department was talking to me about my car. He has an '11 CS and we exchanged the things we love about our cars. So, I told him that since my car takes 6.5 Quarts of oil, I'd like to have the left over, half bottle. He says, "No, they take 8 Quarts." I told him I was pretty sure it didn't.
Then, my salesman came out and chatted a bit. I asked if they were getting an '13's in and the same guy says, "Try to get a Gotta Have it Green in here!" I said that was a Boss only color (turns out I'm wrong on that, available on the V6 and GT) and he says "No, School Bus Yellow is the only color available just on the Boss." He was right about that, but still dead wrong about GHG on the Shelby.
When they were done with the car, he came to me with the paperwork and says "You were right, it was only 6.5 Quarts. I put the other half in the trunk. I guess I was thinking about the '13 that has 8 Quarts."
"Of course I was right, I read the manual and spend way too much time at sites like SVTP to be wrong." - That's what I wanted to say.
He was a good guy and fun to talk with, but just irritated me that he tried correcting me on info about a car that I have way more knowledge about.
End Rant :beer:
