I look forward to taking pictures of my Grenadier in the future. Here is an eagle picture I took a couple weeks ago. Cheers!

Lovely - I opened & closed the attached photo it 5 times - each time I though what a great angle and how brilliant does the Grenadier design look; esp. compared to insipid clone looking modern cars (and yes that includes the ND)

If I look very closely, I think I see your grenadier on the horizon in a container on the ship.
Seriously, I'm looking forward to seeing you in the US taking delivery of your vehicles, and "well you pulled out of Pittsburgh rolling down that Eastern seaboard.
You got your diesel (or petrol) wound up and she's a running like never before.
There's a speed zone ahead, but alright
you don't see a cop in sight.
A lot of days on the road and you´re gonna make it home every night."
(Thanks to Dave, not B but Dudley).

Your sentiment is spot on and the lyrics very appropriate. However, I have to admit that I had another lyric in my head when I posted “there’s always tomorrow for dreams to come true”.

Yes, the song actually fits too. And in two ways. On the one hand, because you have been waiting for your Grenadiers for so long, and on the other hand, it was released for the film "Rudolph with the red nose" in the 1960s. And that would fit in with the red foil on the front of the Grenadier.
