Congratulations Dale! What a sweet ride.
What a difference from your '80 Stang isn't it??? (I owned an '81, I *KNOW*...)
Wait until you start getting "mod" fever... I can tell you, it gets expensive but is SOOOOOOOOO worth it!!! You'll spend lots of time with your Online Banking plotting how to finance your next addition to your toy, I guarantee it...

Congratulations and MY GOD that color is beautiful.
The biggest mistake you've made, however, is buying your GT on impulse. Why, you ask? Because you are by no-means, prepared for the lowering of your wifey-faction (if you are married or engaged) when your bank account starts to dwindle in numbers or your credit card debt starts to inflate when you see all the lovely lovely customization mods you can do to these beasts of vehicles, hehe.
Enjoy the new ride man.

All three were 5-speeds? I wonder what the chances are. It seems like every GT I looked at over the weekend was an Automatic. Bleh!
Capitol City has a Grabber Orange V6 (auto). When I saw it on Friday, my frantic search for a GT began

Curse you! June 27th is her birthday, not today. Now... thanks to you... it will arrive tomorrow! Crap-o-la...
I was hoping for the 28th to skirt the issue. You know what they say. Wednesday's child is full of WHOA!

RANGE YOU???pper. You are much t clever for me! These guys get a car in the morning and 4 hours later they're able to deliver. But yes, I could drag my feet until Wednesday, LOL.
Oh, and "

Located Southeast side of Indy. Not to upset the grabber Orange guys but, I hope the color takes off and maybe there will be a slow down on Redfire. When I got mine there were very few around now they are everywhere.
