Another newbie in Texas
Just want to introduce myself, live in the DFW area and moved to Texas 5 years ago. Always been a diehard Ford person, never even thought I would own a Chevy, my wife is still in shock. Saw a C8 at Mecum in Dallas and was blown away. Joined the forum that night and sent hours reading up on everything. Now know about allocations, wait list numbers, museum delivery and dealers asking over MSRP 
Placed an order with a top 3 dealer based on the forum feedback and spoke to Shane about the museum options and spent hours building one on the Chevy website.
Info on this forum is outstanding, looks like a long wait, but will be worth it.
