having a build date, and a ship date, while living 30 miles away and not having a car is much worse. It makes you wonder why it takes over 1 day to make the 30 mile trip.

Now that I cried in my last post I do have a great story to tell:
A friend (VERY GOOD FRIEND NOW) came by last night, He was driving his new Ford. Not just any ford but a new FORD GT He asked if I wanted a ride. It was the ride of my life. I have been is some fast street cars (Vetts. Shelbys, Dodge Viper) before but nothing can compare with this. It is red & white. I told him he sould have got the blue one.

30 miles away, I would be camped out at the factory. Have you had a tour?? That would be great. Hope you get your Mustang before the cold weather starts.

Ed, glad you got to drive the Ford GT, every Ford enthusiast should be in one at some time of their live. It is the most incredible car I have ever been in.
Tony, got a call yesterday. My Vista Blue GT should be here on the 29th. Hope so!! Last night I saw a Vista Blue /w Silver "California Edition". They are only going to build 400 of them. It looked Great!!
How many owners got their Mustang built on 11/17 ? Like to know how many are out there.
Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving to all!!
Dan

If so got a great deal. Oh well just had to vent, cant pick up my car i have been waiting on for 6 weeks, due to payoff of grand cherokee. Please oh please help me! Just making a prayer.

Congrats Neal on your new Mustang
I am still waiting for my GT. I am thinking of putting on Chrome Tail Light Bezels, Chrome Fog Light Bezels, & Web Electric Grill Insert so let us know what you think of them after installation. I saw a Vista Blue with Silver Stripes "California Edition" the other day. It was really special. To bad they don't have a Pony pac for the GT
Have Fun with your new Mustang!
Dan
