JB: In that case, yours may be one of the first to ship if not THE first among the members anyway as yours is the only one I see that didn't order stripes. Fingers crossed, amigo.
I’m still thinking positive, plus I’m only 3 hours from FRAP. Again if similar, once my 350 actually shipped it only took 2 days to me Taking delivery.. again actually shipped.

JB: Being so close to the plant, I hope yours comes in an enclosed trailer with a nice, big soft cover on it.. :-)
No need for all that! Mid/early December it’s getting some clear race tape put on the front end and driving it to florida !

Well heck, JB, what's up with the road trip if you're only three hours from Dearborn?
Got a little place down in South Florida that I escape to in the cold winter months of Northern Indiana. I’m not retired yet but makes for some nice long weekends when it’s just too cold up here!

Wife had those on her BMW GT550xi. Made the car very drivable in winter months.

Snoop I have never put winter tires on any of my high horse power sports cars. I only drive em above 40 and no salt on roads. Don’t think it will hurt anything but I also am not sure you will gain a whole lot out of them when it’s really cold and wet I’m not sure you could put any shoes on 760HP and help that much with traction

I don't have any need for them here in California, but they may help those of you in States that get a little cold in the Winter. Not necessarily for snow, but low temps.

I had a feeling you might say that, JB and having lived in northern Oh High Yo for twenty-five years, the Navy made the decision for me to move to a warmer climate. :-)

I do hope the first road trip is a blast, that you don't get any rock chips, and that the weather is gorgeous.

Remember though, don't keep her at a constant speed for long periods of time so that new engine motor thingy gets a good break-in.

Here is another option for cold weather driving, and they are inexpensive.

Those look like a good option with a cheaper set of rims that you put on for just a couple months a year could allow some to drive in December and January on nice days.

I just tried to lookup my Vin status , which was schedule to the day tomorrow. Now the site is saying cannot find the vin. Maybe just some tech maintenance on the weekend with fords IT department? Snoop any insight? Thank you!
