Drove it home this evening!!

I picked up my Orphan from Jordan in Round Rock this evening, and drove it 175 miles back to Fort Worth. Very nice people to deal with in Round Rock, I was in and out in just over an hour. No upcharges or anything crazy at all. I picked up a yellow and black passion coupe, only option was power steering, pretty close to what I ordered. I am still undecided as what I will do when my car comes to Dallas, as I am a 1228. The car did better on the highway than I expected, you feel the wind a bit by the big rigs, but I expected worse. So far so good. I hope everyone gets their car soon, it really is worth the wait.

Congratulations, I got my orphan a little over a week ago and I still get a big smile when I go to work. My GMC never did that for me!

redsmartpassion08: So will you be changing your name to yellow or just switching cars? LOL ;) Congrats though. Enjoy your new toy.
