I just got back from my dealership, who is not very good at updating me....I guess thats what you get for not buying from an enthusiast like KevB. Anyway, he printed me out the listing, and it says that it was shipped 09/08/2004. I know this cant be true, because they held them all back till 9/23. But does this probably mean that it was shipped out on the 23rd with all the rest of them?

The other thing that i noticed was on the status screen on his computer. There is 5 or 6 different boxes with dates in them. Status, Order, Build, Production, Shipped, Dealer ETA, and one more that i dont remember. The wierd thing was that my production date was empty, but the shipped date had 9/8/04, which would be fairly normal i guess because my build date was 9/6/04.

Anyway, let me know what you guys think...when will it be here???

I live in San Diego, so its a long truck drive. Next week sometime?

Thanks

edit: check out the photoshop skillz....nice circle huh

Dude, I'm so freaking jealous. I have to wait til December and just live vicariously through all you lucky b#*#ards until then. Oh well, one thing for sure, I'll hear everyones likes/dislikes before I ever even sit behind the wheel.

Congrats.

Pete-

I was worried when he pulled up my order, because he accidentally pulled up yours. I looked at the build date and it said 9/27 and I was like "oh no mine was rescheduled", but then i saw your name down at the bottom, not mine and was relieved when the "shipped" date had been filled out on mine. WHEW!

Please throw a party for the San Diego 'stang source members. We'll buy your dinner if you let us check out every inch of the car!

P.S. and I won't bring Mikey this time!

Email me to arrange this. I'm serious!

I like that idea....was thinking about Ruths Chris or maybe Donovans

But really, I would be happy to take it somewhere when i get it so you guys can check it out. I only have one rule....no food in the car

well..... :scratch: maybe two rules....only i get to drive it B)

<Big Grin>

BTW: You had me worried for a minute when you said Donavan's!

Just so long as we make it somewhere that we won't have to worry about heavy traffic ruining the joy-rides!


P.S. I hate your second rule!

:worship:

I really need to wait to see what my teaching load will be for 2005 before making such a big decision, but hearing you're getting yours this week, seeing that cool TV news video and hanging out here... I just don't know how much longer I can hold out!

:spin:

BTW: This post makes me a Bullitt member - which is very likely the best thing that happened to me all day!
