Congratulations Steve Coates

[DakotaGT]

That is impressive- congratulations to Steve! I had seen so many NFGT delivery videos with Steve that I sort of assumed that I would meet him when mine was delivered, but delivery specialist Bernardo Martinez was assigned to me, and he was absolutely fantastic, as well.

Congratulations Steve.
Outstanding and awesome at 500+.
I remember almost word for word the orientation you did for me on my delivery. You instilled alot of confidence in my mind as well.
I believe the final word was
"Now just take her out and drive,
what this car was built for"
Thank you sir.

WOW!

 

[john gourley]

Really incredible. Such a great guy. Cheers Steve

 

[GTJack]

Wow is right! Steve did a great job with our delivery including getting the driver to back down our curvy road as there was not enough room to turn around the rig at the end of it. Then he did an absolutely great job of clueing me in while answering enthusiastic guests' questions.

 

[Iconic GT]

Very cool. I’ve had the pleasure of being part of a number of these deliveries. SUPER STEVE!!! Congrats

 

[ScottK]

Congratulations and Thank You. Will always remember delivery day with you Steve.

 

[GTMD]

Holy crap, that is bonkers. Congrats Steve!

Wild guess, if the average delivery location was 1,000 miles away, ie 2,000-mile round trip, that's 1,000,000 miles of traveling to deliver NGTs.

Congrats Steve. Thank you for making my delivery experience outstanding. The best part is he not only enjoys what he does but takes his time and doesn't miss a beat.

[Steve GT Delivery Guy]

Hi everyone, thanks for all the kind words. Yes, 500 is a big number and it surprised me when I was counting up the other week. Every delivery is uniquely different and always enjoyable.

The GT is such a special car within the car community I feel very humbled to have a small part in it. I know my GT Delivery Specialist colleagues Bernardo and Claude work as hard and feel the same way I do about how special the GT and program is.

As a car guys, all of us Delivery Specialists want to pass on as much info as possible to the owner so they can use and look after the GT with as much care and attention as the guys that designed the car intended. The GT ordering and ownership experience would not have been possible without the whole GT Concierge team and service dealer network working hard behind the scenes to make the car happen.

Cars like the GT only come around every 10-20 years that really push the envelope of what a car is or what a car should be. Obviously time will tell what history makes of the GT, but personally I would put the GT in the same arena as the Lamborghini Miura and McLaren F1 as cars that have moved the automotive needle.

5 years into the program and this is my first post on here, yes I monitor the chat, but for needing to stay impartial reasons I have not had a account and will probably keep my future postings limited, but seeing so many nice comments I had to respond. We are not done yet, still a hundred+ GT's to deliver and we are looking forward to meeting more new owners.

Drive and enjoy your GT,
Steve Coates
Ford GT Delivery Specialist

Steve, every once in a while people like you come along and make this world a better place. Our folks both over 90 talked about how wonderful you were. Tom Phipps K020 Washington Michigan January 5th 2019

In November 2017 the truck pulled into my local Ford dealer and the delivery started. Steve introduced him self and ask who’s is the lucky new owner, there were 20+ people standing around. Interdiction were made and I wasn’t sure who was more excited me of Steve. What a great experience it was. I still have the GoPro from him doing over the car and explaining the controls. Have been at several other delivery’s he made and he had the same excitement at them all. Thanks Steve and congratulations.
