That's the kind of story we like to read. Grats on that awesome wingless white 5.0. I'll be doing the same when picking mine up at Van Bortel Ford and meeting with Paul for the first time and then driving it back through beautiful upstate N-Y all the way to Montreal. Oh by the way, how was the "radiator bug" factor after driving it that many miles ? Thinking of protecting mine on the way back. They do mess up a rad big time on long trips.

What's up North Central FL buddy? I'm in Alachua. Hope to get my car soon (this week or next). I'm not surprised that you didn't deal with Gainesville Ford. They wouldn't budge on charging me sticker for my order. Needless to say, I walked and ordered elsewhere.
Beautiful car BTW. I love the white!

Congrats on the new 5.0. In reading this post, it gave me an idea of what It will be like for me when my wife and I fly to Rochester to pick up my 5.0. We will be driving back to Cumming Georgia, approximately 1000 miles, not quite as many as you, but we plan to treat it as a mini vacation and take some pics as we see some new parts of the country. My time is fast approaching, could be any day now, can't wait.

Yeah, Paul is the guy. It's been great dealing with him, and I can't wait to meet him and my new car. I am working on the best route back, so thanks for the heads up. I hope we have as good of a time as you and your daughter.
