Well, Rachel's new Excursion is supposed to arrive tomorrow, or Monday at the latest. (Just in time, Rachel's Birthday is Tuesday!) Guess Daddy gets out of finding another present this year!

Now, to pay for it! :eek: Good thing I'm doing another project for my local dealer. :sweet

Will Post new pics when we get it. Can't wait to start fine-tuning it. (Shh! no one tell her! She thinks I'm going to keep hers stock :roflmao )

AB,

first, I think you're treading on thin Ice if'n u don't get her something else for her b-day :eek:

(and NOT a mixing bowl or anything utilitarian like that !)

They SAY they don't want anything after the first few years... but they LIE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and will hold it against you for YEARS...
and tell the horror story to ALL your friends and family !
NOT that I KNOW that first hand :)

******************************
but, Isn't that funny how that is about HER car???

My wife's Lincoln LS - I may drive it once every 3 months at most ....

but still had to upgrade the exhaust, intake, tuning... tires...etc... etc...

guess it's a guy thing :thumbs
:D

We have not talked deals yet so I don't know. Fleet Manager tried to get a hold of me yesterday, buy I was out of range. My guess is that it's here. He does not work on Saturday, so I'll wait until Monday.

Cant' wait to see it. May have to drive by the bullpen. ;)
