I told all my friends that I ordered and expected the car in the spring.

I didn't tell them that the order got pulled early, and will be here in a few weeks

I was going to but before I could tell my wife not to tell anyone, she had blabbed it to everyone in the family. I really wanted to surprise everyone too. Oh well.

When I ordered my wife's vert last February, the only person that I told was my Dad. Since he owns a '90 vert that my wife had been coveting for years, I figured he would enjoy being in on the project.

I told my friends I talk to on a consistant basis, and told my sister (she drives a 2000 Mustang), so I knew she would be excited. Of course when you work in sales at a Ford dealership, and they see your last name on the sheet that lists sales, I told them what I'm getting. The only people I haven't told is my father and mother. Dad has a 1966 Mustang soupe, so I want to wait to tell him. Rather, I'll tell him when I stop by the house to show him. . I know he will freak when he knows I have one on order. , but his reaction will be worth it.

Hubby and I kept it a secret from all. When we brought her home, called my son (away at college) and revved the engine for him . . . that's how he found out.

If I could do it all over again, I wouldn't tell anybody. For months, co-workers asked me every day "Got your car yet?"

I'm with Toby! I told everybody & after waiting 5 months I don't think anybody believed me anymore! ------ Especially when I told everybody I had ordered Sonic Blue & finally got Mineral Grey from another dealer!

My dealer kept the secret from me. You know the one, the car will actually take 2 months longer than originally planned... :bang:
