#55 finds a home

I don't usually post the same thing on different forums (please forgive this infraction), but I wanted to make sure I caught the people that only hang out on this forum. I finally got the car out yesterday (after taking delivery Monday) and took it for a short drive.

Thank you to everyone here for answering questions over the years I've been working to get a Boss. *A special thank you to Deysha and Jeff (05fordgt) for responding to PM's about various things:

And some more pics for everyone else, with a special cameo at the end:





SBY Anyone?


Cheers,
Jeff

Hi Dave, I went with Jim S. per your suggestion. Thank you very much for that. Most suggestions I received had people wanting over MSRP, Jim was the real deal.

Great pics. The car looks more like grabber orange in your photos. Mine us the same depending on the light. Also its strange how your car was built 2 days before mine but has a higher number. I haven't figured out how that happens. Enjoy it!

Yeah, but the local dealer charged $300 for the privilege, which didn't even include a tank of gas. Fortunately I live close to the dealership, when I pulled into the house the car had been saying "0 miles to empty" for 5 miles. eek.

It's possible my build date ended up being shifted and I never caught it. What I have in my sig is what was originally scheduled and I recall it being right, but it could be wrong. I await my owners kit for validation.

And you are spot with the light. When its cloudy it looks much more orange. When the sun is bright its much more true yellow. I dig it.
