I can’t say enough about Pettijohn Auto Center. A few weeks ago I stopped at Bethany, MO to charge my Tesla Model 3 at the supercharger there and I was rear ended hard enough my car was not drivable. After I went to the tow shop, my wife, son and I walked across the street to Pettijohn where I noticed the Electric Ford Mustang. We were in need of a car and Pettijohn wanted to demo their car so we were able to help each other out. They were fantastic in taking care of us and letting us demo the Mustang Mach E for 24 hours. As a Tesla driver for the past 2 years, I was excited to try out the Mustang. I think Ford has a winner here. Let me share what I liked a lot. 1) Suspension – for highway driving, it was incredibly comfortable – same with the seats. It felt sporty, yet dampened the bumps on the road. 2) Lane Keep function – while not Tesla’s autopilot, it did a great job. What I really liked is how putting on the turn signal “temporarily” disabled it to let you take control, and a second or so after getting in your new lane, it auto resumes the lane keep function. 3) Visibility – better than expected – I really liked the blind spot warning on the mirrors – wish my Tesla had this. 4) Range Prediction- very accurate, I actually got about 5% more range than predicted. This model did not have as big of battery as my Model 3, but still adequate for taking it on a road trip. 5) Charging – I found a fast charger in Des Moines and only needed about 20 min to finish my trip and then our hotel had a plug-in to top me off for the next morning and my return trip. There was quite a bit of cargo space in the hatchback and overall it is just a great car. It did not have quite the acceleration I’m used to in my Tesla, but it was more than needed (this was not the GT model). Great job Ford in joining the electric car space! Also, thank you Pettijohn. They went out of their way and helped me out when I was in a pinch – best service I’ve ever had from an auto dealer. These folks were amazing and next time I’m in the market for a Ford, I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to purchase from this fine dealer. Top service all around!
