Talking Goat is in....Finally

Just got a call from my salesperson at Dave Smith Motors and the car just came off the truck. Now, if I can just contract some rare noninfectious disease that can get me out of work for a day to go pick it up before this weekend. I've gotta wait 5 whole days, thats 120 hours, 7,200 minutes, 43,200 seconds I'll never make it.

So long as you write the nice man at the dealership a check for it as well, go for it! Can't wait to see the smouldering lump of blue metal in my driveway when you get here.

Thumbs up

Hey that's awesome man. Congrats on the purchase. The anticipation must be killing you.

I can't even count how many times I've drove past Kellog Idaho on my way back to Missoula.

Come to think of it... I have this Dr. appointment this morning...Naaw It'd be even harder to get my work done knowing that the car was just downstairs in the garage, just waiting to be taken for a quick spin...To Portland and back.
