    Default Possibly a light at the end of the tunnel!

    Hopefully it isn't a train. My dealer called this afternoon and told me that my GXP was on a truck and scheduled to be delivered Monday or Tuesday!! This is the most definitive info that they have given me to date. I won't believe it until I see it.

    My daughter is climbing all over me as I'm typing this and she loves the Crazy Paul emotcon so I put it on here for her. It actually is appropriate for me waiting on this dang GXP.

    I got a call as well this past week saying they were unloading one. No details, though. You put down money on a Maverick Silver Metallic, right? Any idea if this is it?

    I am preparing a sacrifice to ensure the GXP gets there soon. Tomorrow I will go out and do something evil & nasty to the old Penguinmobile hulk sitting forlornly in front of the house. I gotta think about this......

    Brandon, make sure you check under the front fascia....This cars are low enough to catch on the hauler when they load and unload.....Not as bad as the Chargers and Shelbys.....Just something to look for from a former carhauler.
