Yeah that's what they said, FP couldn't tell whether it was at Autoport or not or where exactly it was, but last update was that it was on a truck yesterday morning in Halifax! I sure hope it does get delivered today! Going to call Stephen after to see if I can arrange for the tint to be done, at least then on the drive home and once I get it home I won't have to keep the windows up :)

In the past I've just used Costco since they're top tier certified, but we do have a single she'll station locally as well. Unfortunately we only get 91 as well :(

I saw the video of yours on the dyno, how did it make out?
Costco, doesn't sell fuel here.
RWHD #'s where 464 on 91.
about 18c and raining, so about right.
Bit better and weather would have put it at
468/70 based on what I have read here.
Trust me it works very well :)

Oh, I went to autopost today, not that that means much.
I couldn't see it, but sometimes very difficult, they normally have anywhere
between 8, to 10,000 cars at any one time.

That's super impressive man, Ford weren't lying when they said all the 350's would make at least 526hp! Curious as to what difference 93 octane would make, probably put it closer to 540 or so at the crank.

Hmm FP said it was loaded on a truck, Stephen told me two trucks came into the dealer today but it wasn't on it. Fingers crossed that it will be delivered by Thursday; I got Superior lined up to tint the windows Friday morning, Stephen is going to bring it over and get it back. Should be done and back to the dealer an hour or so before I arrive! I won't arrive there until 2:30-3:00pm though, in case you were thinking of stopping by. If you couldn't make it then, we could always meet up Monday when I am on my way back from Moncton to get the boat that night :thumbsup:

I've watched your GoPro videos now so many times, car just sounds so god dam good I literally can't wait to drive mine, just two more days of anxiety and excitement :lol:

I was at Mcphee this morning, car is not at Ford yet.
I would be checking, they need 1-2 hours for PDI.
You coming if car is not there, will be no fun.
They can't control auto port.
First truck they get is normally mid morning. sometimes later.
So even if it comes friday afternoon, your pushing to be ready.

No worries there my good friend, just got a call and some pics from Stephen :D :D :D

She was loaded on wrong, but fortunately Stephen said there was no damage or scraping. But she hath arrived!!!! Beyond excited right now, cannot believe that in two days time I'll be taking ownership and driving this amazing machine, hard to take in honestly.

Should post this as a new thread man so others will see it more easily! IMO if that is a 2016 it is priced rather high, but if it were a lightly used 2017, great deal!

I couldn't remember the model year for sure but I figured if someone was interested they would contact the dealer

Definitely, wouldn't hurt though to just create a new thread on the homepage, seems like it may be a little under MSRP if it is a lightly used 2017, which it seems to be, so could be a good deal for someone and I'm sure someone would appreciate that info!
