Exclamation

Been lurking around since the middle of last year and finally pulled the trigger. This will be my first mustang. Iv'e been secretly dreaming about owning one since an old friend did a triple loop power cookie in his '84 5.0 stang back in '87. Anyway, now the wait begins and I hope to see her about tax time.

Ordered mine last week. Dealer told me April. No big hurry for me. I am excited but It give me time to save some more money and wait for nice weather. This stang won't be plowing snow drifts B)

Congrats!

wow all the variable wait times some order and get a build in a week and some get a built up around six months down the road when told 6-8 weeks every week feels like a month ! but look at it as an extra payment saved up. :cry:

Thanks all. Nice to be welcomed to the community. As for the 'stang, the way I look at the later the better. If delivery slips into May or June, I am with Vanessa that is less to finance. The wait will definitely stink, but it will be worth it.

I think we all can agree this is one of the most horrific (non-serious) things we have had to go through. Maybe there are psychiatrists we can go to. After all, all of the Kerry supporters had their own disease. What was it? Post election stress disorder? Why can't we have the Post-order Mustang Anticipation Disorder? I think we should make a push for it!
