I don't have a text plan, so hopefully your car will be enough to keep me entertained...

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!

I went to Gville ford, and I knew about the 5.0 before they did. its sad how tsome of the dealers around here have no enthusiasm about mustangs as we do... or were just crazy hah

im currently waiting for the v6 preformance package, i want to see how that looks. but if any of yall need a friends and family x plan, my father is a retiree of ford. 35 years strong.

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.
