Unhappy Still Waiting!!

The new truck is still not here!! It has been six weeks since I ordered it, so I called the dealer the other day. Ford gave him a ETA of May 21, so I got a little bit to wait yet. Haven't been able to get on to the computer at home here either, my Wife has started her training to become a charted accountant and its all done on line. She comes home from work and heads to the office and I don't see her all night.

I`d be too excited to wait....
No way of getting a loaner or a courtesy vehicle, maybe a used Lightning/Mustang GT?

with a 460 in a late 70's, sorry guess I just don't see the downside to another week. LOL

A new mustang GT would be great for a couple of weeks!! Or I could get my parents former '02 Explorer that they traded off on a Ford 500. I bought my truck from the same dealer, and he hasn't sold the Explorer yet!!

The up side of the gas bill is at least your not making payments on it as well.
