The CALL I was waiting for!!!!!
I have posted a few replies and introduced myself in March when I ordered. I have been reading ever since.
Today I got the CALL! My beast arrived at the dealer 2 days early. That was such a good suprise. My sleep patterns have been too disturbed.
Anyway I am on my way to the dealer now to pick it up, of course armed with the camera for pics tonight, if I am not out driving.
This means a lot to me on so many different levels. I get the priveledge of the 'Ultimate' Driving Machine. I was actually able to pay for it. I have wanted a V8 since highschool. I LOVE to Drive. Anyway it is a big event. I do not think my wife understands it at all. Thats OK because there are all of you.
I will get some pics up quick. Got to go.....
