Today was one of the best days of my life!

Please note that I have retired my avatar of the last 12 years, my white with blue stripes '06 FGT ... BECAUSE ... I took delivery today of J143 and spent some 2 1/2 hours with Steve Coates who patiently explained all of the car's functions and controls.

I decided on the spec early in the process ... Ingot Silver in homage to my silver '72 Pantera Pre-L and blue stripes for my '06 GT and of course for Ford Blue.

Next step is an xpel wrap commencing in a week ... then some driving fun.

I would like to thank Steve for his friendly and excellent tutorial, as well as his patience with my many questions. He knows these cars inside and out and did a fantastic job.
