Jeff will try to sell to Jimmy

Snohomish WA. - area resident and Bickford Ford sales consultant Jeff Wing #SnohomishJeff is travelling to New York City this week to make a series of appearances on NBC’s “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.” At the show, Wing will appear alongside representatives from nine other Ford dealers to sell the late night host America’s toughest and bestselling truck, the Ford F-150.

“A few weeks ago, Jimmy Fallon announced he planned to purchase a new truck. It’s no surprise Jimmy chose the toughest, smartest and most capable truck on the road, the Ford F-150,” Bob Hinshaw, Seattle’s Regional Sales Manager said. “We are thrilled that Jeff Wing is one of only a handful of Ford sales consultants throughout the nation chosen to participate on the Tonight Show in a competition to sell Jimmy his new F-150. Jeff embodies the Ford Go Further spirit of ensuring every customer who walks through the door finds the vehicle that best suits their needs and the needs of their family. He is an exceptional member of the Ford family here in the Pacific Northwest and we wish him the best of luck on the show!”

Two American Institutions:
The program unites two American institutions – the longest running talk show in television history and the nation’s bestselling vehicle for 32 consecutive years and bestselling truck for 37 years. Wing appeared on Monday’s airing of “The Tonight Show” for the kickoff of the “Fingers on a 4x4” contest where the 10 Ford sales consultants will place a hand on the 2015 F-150 King Ranch Mr. Fallon plans to purchase. The last sales consultant to remove his or her hand will officially get the sale.

“I’m thrilled to represent Ford and the Pacific Northwest in this competition,” said Wing, a lifelong resident of the community. “Appearing on “The Tonight Show” last night was an awesome and unforgettable experience. I hope my legs, feet and back are built Ford tough, like the F-150, to withstand the most demanding challenges. I want to take the victory and deliver the new 2015 F-150 King Ranch to Jimmy Fallon and make Ford proud!"

The competition will take place at the Intrepid Sea, Air, and Space Museum at Pier 86 in New York City and can be followed by visiting www.thetonightshowstarringjimmyfallon.com and on Twitter at @fallontonight. To join the conversation, the official hashtag is #fingersona4x4.
