Default On Antibiotics Already

Damn, the fever struck early with this one. My TPW isn't till the week of 07 Dec. and I've already bought Lloyds floor mats, cargo mat, snap in lifting pucks, splash guards, tan and gray twill ball caps, Z51 sways. Also looking at the American Hydrocarbon interior goodies. They will do the install at their factory they advised. That would make a great spring trip from Midlothian, TX via the Bash & Dragon's Tail in late April. Gotta love being semi retired .................

Damn...you're sick! And there won't be a cure until mid December. Stay warm and drink plenty of fluids ( adult kind).

The disease is chronic, when he finds the front splash guards won't protect the rocker panels and the heavy GM plastic "protection" that goes from the center of the doors to the rear wheel openings starts to look bad, side skirts are needed. Then once he gets the side skirts he'll come down with the need to match those with a splitter. When looking at both, assume in black or CF that chrome grill bar has to go or get covered, etc

Haven't had either of those issues so far. Don

It's like being a parent and buying all kinds of goodies before your baby is born. Hope you get a healthy one, with no roof, infotainment or transmission problems.

That would make a great spring trip from Midlothian, TX via the Bash & Dragon's Tail in late April. Gotta love being semi retired .................

I was thinking of going to the Bash in April and hitting the "tail of the dragon" afterwards as well. Do you know what the weather might be like in that area (TOD), and the Blue Ridge Parkway that time of year?

My TPW is 12/07 also. I haven't bought anything yet, but I think I've been on every web site all ready. I didn't want to order so early (winter here in Mass, so can't drive), but when I heard GM cancelled night race blue, I was all in.

There is no cure other than running out of money. Are you buying from Criswell again?

Gorgeous to say the least. It's only about 3 hours drive time from B G to Alcoa. Excellent hotels then a very short drive to the start of the Dragon on the TN side.

Ken Fichtner in MT. He was the first dealer to sign on with the forum back when Moses carved the tablets.
