I got my stang!!!!!!

Go ahead and slam me with the no pictures statements. I am working on my camera. I need to download new kodak XP compatible software but their site is not allowing downloads temporarily for the camera I have.

Hopefully tomorrow I can get the download and post some pics.


By the way, my dealership was Battlefield Ford in Manassas, and they were great.
It was definitely worth the wait. The car arrived exactly as I ordered, and got the price that was negotiated in December. I went with the AAA buying program price which was $750 over invoice back in December.

By the way, avoid Kip Killmons Tysons Ford. Its a long story, but they are all about max profit for each individual vehicle at the expense of repeat business and customer word of mouth exposure.

The weather has been bad since I got mine, but here are a couple of low quality pics. I will have more pics when the weather is better.

Why will it not let me upload a 286 Kb jpg file? It says that it is too much memory.

Well, after waiting since December 16, my ball and chain had a major change of heart a week ago. We've had several family discussions and a family vote, my wife succeeded in changing her mind and getting our order cancelled. My son and I are crushed, what can I say. Her reasons are varied: we should get a more economical car, insurance for my son in 5 years would be outrageous, she hasn't had a car payment for a long time and doesn't want another (though I actually got it down to $208 per month - and that is nothing, really), and the biggie - we don't really need another Ford in the family! I consider this ALMOST grounds for divorce. I won't do it, but my dealer wasn't very happy and neither am I. This will be a dark cloud over our marriage that will last for awhile.

My wife typically wins about 99 out of 100 arguments. This was one she knew she wouldn't win, and kept quite.

Here's a nanner for you:

I should be joining you in the fleet of DC area GTs next week...just found out that mine was built on Monday. My coworker ordered one from Battlefield, and his should be here in mid-late May. Grats on that price...I had to pay MSRP for my order. I guess they weren't quite as hot when you ordered yours in December.

Kip Killmons is right around the corner from my office...guess it's a good thing I didn't stop in there.

No fair. You got YOUR car on MY birthday. And I had to leave MY car at the dealership till at least Monday. No fair, no fair, no fair, no fair. You get NO nanners from me.

Just teasing. Well, at least about the nanners part, not about the other. Here's a couple. Congrats on the car & enjoy.

Anybody have any suggestions about how to post pictures?
Why will it not let me upload a 286 Kb jpg file? It says that it is exceeding the limit for memory.
