Unhappy Got the call, it's here.......

... and I still can't pick it up. Salesguy called yesterday and my '06 F250, V10, CC, LB, FX4 arrived. We drove over and looked at it last night with the wrapping still on it. The individual buying my '95 won't be able to make the transaction until early next week. No problem I thought, I can wait a few more days. Get in to work this AM and find out I have to travel to Missoula, MT for 2 weeks and not back until 7/8, gone the 4th to boot. Having it finally in town and waiting is worse than the build/delivery wait time. Maybe Ford will release some '06 incentives during the two weeks. Man this bites, work seems to get in the way of too many things.

I'm sure having seen & touched your NEW truck makes the waiting almost unbearable. Maybe you can talk your buyer into doing the deal a little early?

Rooster, all good things are worth waiting for and I am sure that that 06 Lariat with the best gas motor available in any pickup, personally I think the best motor period, will be worth the wait. Best of luck with your new truck and I look forward to your first impressions, Have a good safe trip, Wrench.

White,

No, not a Jeff. Different Rooster I guess.

Just got back from a week in Missoula, MT and am picking up the truck tomorrow, won't sleep much tonight. Just sat down to see if any rebates showed for the '06s.
