Default Fun with the salesman

Forgot to add, I had some fun with the salesman before I left the dealer. My dealer is on a busy street. Just before I left, I asked him if he could block traffic. He asked if I was worried about getting hit. I told him I wanted to "light them up". He gave me a blank stare. Then I looked at the speedometer and told him I just added something to my bucket list. I said, one of these days, I am going to peg that speedometer at the 200 mark. I think he thinks I'm nuts.

Seems like a good goal. When your 90, that should be your goal.


....strike that, do it tomorrow.

I agree, that break in period is all important.
