Nice. I love the color, but I am biased as I have the same color.

Thanks for the compliments on the car folks. It seemed like a forever wait, but I'm glad it waited and had it built the way I wanted instead of getting one off the lot. We live out in the sticks so we thought some pics off old route 66 in the desert would be a good start for a drive. Of course the first place we went in it was Bass Pro Shops in Phoenix where we picked it up. Gotta have your priorities right for that every now and then time away from the sticks and into the big city.
