Hello. I'm insane.
What can I do to get my head of my car? I come here and see all these people getting their beautiful cars and I almost cry. My Mustang is all I think about. Why won't it get here already?
What can I do to pass the time to make it less painful? I could do drugs. Or get wasted. No, thats not right.
Or I could do stuff with my freinds. But then they ask me where the heck my car is and I get stuck talking about it for an hour.
I need help. Therapy even. If anyone can help me, please do.
Patience is a virtue. I've waited 7 years already for this car, and now weeks before it comes, I've lost my mind. (at least until I sit in it)
Every time the phone rings I stop breathing and my heart skips a beat. Then its my Grandma or some dumb person from school needing homework help. Then THEY ask about my car.
My parents cannot stand me anymore. My dealer, I'm sure, gets annoyed with me.
So, lets all have a collective thought process. Everyone please think real hard, or even say it outloud: "Dan Mathe's car will come tomorrow!" Say it three times for good measure. The power of human thought sometimes trancends reality.

Its fixin on getting nasty around here. I have completely had it. With everything. I honestly wish I would have never laid eyes on this car. If I would have known it was going to be such a stomach sickening ordeal I never woulda set my mind on it. Last October I was perfectly happy. This October....Well............Lets not go there.
I am quite sick of working my tail off for nothing. I am sicker still of other things which I won't say out loud. Must be nice.So I have to settle for an 04 model(for the moment), which granted is better than nothing, but still. I am angry and about 3 days off from shooting something up.This is unhealthy.
Fine, Fine I think I should shut up now before I make someone angry(like me)

Right there with you bud...going insane. My wife has just about had enough of me spending all my free time on this site hoping to see a new piece of info...good thing I can't get to it at work or I'd be getting nothing done there too.
Two things calm me down: My dealer has yet to make me an offer on my trade in, and I don't have a firm insurance quote as of yet.
Other than the "If your a boy, get a girl. " thing, ripping my 300+ cd collection to MP3s seems to pass the time...

I wasn't expecting to, until my dealer called and told me I had a ETA of 10/4. So I got excited thinking it was coming early.
And thats all she wrote.

I play a lot of Poker to pass the time. Thats alright. That's where I'm going now actually.
Do any of you just keep this site open all day and hit the refresh, expecting to find new info? I do. It's crazy.
And I'm serious about this one thing: When my car finally comes, no one better scratch under the fender, or break the tranny line, or get the accelerator stuck like that poor Mustang that is wrecked. If they do, their head will be in the pavement, and I'll be jail.
As soon as my car comes, I'm falling on the ground from exhaustion and crying for joy.
So lets all think/pray really hard for one another. It could work. At the very least it gives some glimemr of hope.

I ordered a GT Premium, Sonic Blue, IUP, Light Graphite interior, 1000 watt shaker. The works.
I know it was on hold. My ETA is now TBD, but the status is SHPD CONVOY. Which makes no sense.

I find myself doing most of the things that you folks are doing. Its hard to wait this out. In the meantime, I found this neat writeup on how BMW's are processed once they hit the port. It's interesting to note that they give priority to cars that have already been sold versus those that are not. I know that is a topic of discussion out here.
BMW - Shipping From Factory To Dealer
I also found this writeup on Ford, and how they partnered with UPS to build a vehicle tracking system. Not sure if they really went through with it. Check out their 2003 goals at the bottom: "8-day maximum delivery within North America". Sure wish they were hitting goals like that with the new Mustang. If that goal was the same for 2004, then I would suspect there is an executive or two who might not get a bonus this year

Enough
Come walk a day in my shoes- then you can be upset.......I dont have anyone to buy one for me.(well my husband but that isn't free) I have two mortgages because I moved to the country for two years before realizing the mistake no one will buy my place because no one wants to live where deliverance was filmed(worst mistake of my life).. I have two cars that I can't give away...... I can't even think about getting my car right now until I figure out how to get rid of my olds.I set MARCH as a deadline(yes, thats SIX months) because I figure I Can build my business to full time or go out and get 3 jobs if I need to to pay for my own mustang.
The only thing I have going for me right now is my husband loves me enough to sacrifice the truck he loves to get me SOME KIND of Mustang until I can get the one I want. That's torture.
I do not have one on order I can look forward to bringing home, and I certainly didn't do myself any favors by finally finding a real live one here. Because now I am just bitter that it wasn't mine....
