Got the call from Don today...it has been slated to be loaded on a train or truck or what ever they plan on shipping her out on!!!

It is surreal...hard to get excited at this point.

I told Don to pass the word on to the dealer that it is being drop shipped to, that I don't want them touching the jeep. Just leave it be. Don't drive it don't do anything to it.

I forgot to mention (but I am sure he will read this) the most critical thing is I do not want their lame ass PETERSON STAMPEED NAMPA IDAHO sticker on my brand new jeep. All of the badges are coming off anyways, I don't want anymore work.

Thanks for staying on top of it Don! I haven't for a second thought twice about using a dealer 2000 miles away.

God, I love the internet. (and good gin too!!!) :D

You lucky bastard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wonder where mine is????:(

No problem! I will tell them no stickers as well:D

If you don't mind me asking, what did it cost to ship it to Idaho? I will most likely be doing the same thing you are except ship to Utah.

no cost other than a $250 processing fee by the local dealer.

It is just a drop shipment. They have to ship is somewhere...so I said drop it here!!! :D

You are lucky at $250. My dealer wanted $500 for drop ship.

Don set it all up.

ALL HAIL DON!!!

Don set it all up.

ALL HAIL DON!!!


I refuse to hail until I reach KZ status!:p

Where in Utah?

hahaha...oh wait, you said where IN Utah...when I first read this I thought you said where is Utah...I was going to respond right below Idaho, but most people dont know where that is either.

Never mind...I have had too much gin and wine tonight. Everything is funny to me.

Damn, I just noticed that I have oil all over my keyboard now...shoot. It is my 9th year of being married, oil bath and....well you get the point. She is asleep now and i am still ready to go.


I feel like I have said too much. Ohwell..

Where in Utah?

My family lives in Logan. When I get back to the states, I may move to SLC but probably not right away. If I could get it shipped to Logan that would be great but the ride home from SLC might just be worth it!

I'll be posting pics as soon as I get home from taking possession. Mine is steel blue and has option group one and two.

The first one from my group to be delivered will be in Virginia in a day or two. Unfortunately the proud new owner is out of the country until the 8th. Regardless though, the first 08 to hit my lot will have pics taken an posted up before a customer gets a chance to come pick it up.

Eeek!!! (squeals like a girl)

I am a rythm guitarist/lead singer for a struggling local band...lol.

Just like every other local band out there

Wow lead singer... There are a lack of quality singers that can play a guitar well too.

I play the guitar, but I cant sing (well you wouldn't want me to at least).
