Heh. My Vin is the one right before his. Should I be worried? Or should I consider myself fortunate to not be in the same boat?

It suck to not get your car, but I am encouraged that Ford cares enough not to want to ship these cars. In the old days they wouldn't have given a ****, you'd have your car, and you'd end up hating it.

Cool, thanks.

Check this part of AAI out. (Find the green arrow)

I thought that was employee parking. . .

That could just be the "recycling" center.

Really hard to tell from such a distance, but i ain't seeing any Sterling grey, which is good news.

Now you guys know the satellite pics are from 2008. It would be great to have them in near real-time, but the number of Google ads we would have to endure would be staggering.

You are zoomed in fully, right? The resolution is quite good. I can't see great detail, but I can tell where the engine compartment is on some of them.

Man have you got good eyes. Thx for telling me.

Just called CS a few minutes ago, still same ETA ( June 27th, which is a Sunday....weird, i didn't know they delivered cars on Sundays). They must be doing extra shifts to keep up with the shipping demand. Who knows.

The wait definitely sucks big ones.........but you'll be more than happy once it arrives. I had to wait 6 months for my Shelby. But hey, at least you didn't get a Crapmaro instead!!!

The Honda/Nissan dealer had a shipment come in this past Sunday. I only know because I was at the ice cream shop across the street, but I'd say cars get delivered all week...

Maybe you should have listened in school long enough to make it into the 5th grade.

[That was for corvettedreamin's benefit]

Hey Sharpie ( hate calling you that, but i don't see your name), do you have a photo gallery or any place you are hosting them for us to see. That is my 5.0 color and would like to get some real nice pics so i can get a good idea of what it'll look like. Thx.... PM me if you want to e-mail them to me. Your car is the exact same way i would've ordered it. Awesome.
