Default RE: WHATS REALLY GOING ON WITH DODGE AND THESE CHALLENGERS???

I feel your pain...

I was one of the first in my area to receive a new 2005 Mustang GT. I had ordered it when the order banks first opened in May 2004. Everyday, I thought about it. The production finally started in Oct 2004, and I could wait...

However, no cars were being shipped as it turned out, because of some kind of quality control issue. Patiently I waited and waited. Well it finally showed up one day in November and my salesman didn't even call. I just happened to call at 8:00 pm that evening and the salesman said: "oh yeah, your car came in at around 2:00..." [sm=chairshot.gif]

I couldn't sleep that night and was at the dealer first thing in the morning. They had to call the saleman and get him out of bed so he could do the paperwork. Needless to say I finally got the car home.

The first few months were fun driving around and watching people almost wreck trying to see this car. When I stopped at a store, people would come up and want to talk. It was definitely a high, while it lasted.

Of course now, after 3 1/2 years, they are a dime a dozen and the excitement is not the same.

I have been reading these posts and kind of re-living the excitement that you will have in being one of the first to get a special car like the Challenger.

So anyway, hope that helps and maybe I'll see you on the street ...[sm=gears.gif]
