considering that its the front of the dealership that would be a weird place to advertise em dontcha think? not one ford vehicle in front of the dealer on either side...i would put the used cars in back but i guess i'm kooky like that

Well....

i guess they figure since they are a FORD dealer that people would already KNOW they have FORDS so they put some of the Benzes up front so people know they have other crap too.

Its not like they have a 93 Corolla, a 02 Passport, 99 Saturn SL1, and a 01 Jimmy up there...... they are showing the benzes and stuff

Yes, But is that the main Ford dealership? It could be the used car dealership building? In my town they have a whole different building down the road for the used cars. The main dealership should have the Ford showroom with new Fords and the outside surrounded by new Fords.. I would think..
