I just bought a new 2006 GT and it's waiting 4 hours a way. My question is do i go and pick it up and drive it back? I understand from other posts that you shouldn't be at a constant speed for the break in period and it's all highway for 4 hours. Or do I wait a week for the transport company to ship it.
I feel like a kid at christmas time. I can't wait to open my present.
Man, have it shipped - I DID ... and the dealer was only 90 miles away.
Call me paranoid (many DO! ...as well as a few other things...), but, FIRST you need to become familiar with where everything IS on the car ... how the car does this and that... how quick (VERY!) it steers ... how the brakes react (instant!) ... WHERE FIRST GEAR IS - NOT 3RD!! ... how much of the car sticks out beyond where you THINK it does ... what you CAN & CANNOT see if a car is "here" or "there", and so on, before you "venture forth".
PLUS, you're pbly going to have to operate in "RUSH(?!) HOUR TRAFFIC to boot!... stop & go, stop & go, creep & crawl, stop & go:bang . Not to mention the all the IDIOTS "lane jumping":mad and tailgating:mad , etc. AND THEN THERE'S THE WONDERFUL ROCK CHIP IN THE WINDSHILED ODDS whioch go up dramatically in that sort of stuff (... and you have to remove the front fenders to replace a GT's windshield accd'ing to what I've been told).
NOPE! FERGIDDABOUTDIT! You'll just be "asking for it".:devil
Have a highly regarded outfit BRING IT TO YUH.:thumbsup
