Sick of waiting

But nothing in writing like you get - do I have to send explicit photos to get on the mailing list???

You could call in and shake his hand
Have a chat
Go upstairs and sit and talk to him
Be calm and at peace with the world.

You can borrow Dave’s dildos now they have been through the dishwasher!

Start a Dave's software gremlin thread?

I am actually going in tomorrow to take delivery of your car, test drive. It will be ok I don't smell so it will still feel new when you get it!

As I've waited I have found that impatience has allowed my eye to wander. A few days ago I talked to a Chevy dealer to ask about C8 Corvette wait times for orders or dealer allocations. I guess I was looking for some reassurance that the Grenadier wait was not nearly as long as those waiting for a new 'Vette. The typical answer was a six month wait for an allocation that might cost you several thousand over MSRP, and 12-18 months for a new order. Well, one of the dealers called back the next day saying a customer ordered car became available when the guy backed out, and would I like to buy it for $1500 over MSRP. I left work right away and had it in my garage in 2 hours. So I'm bowing out on the Grenadier for now.

Don’t know man, that front approach angle is way less than the Grenadiers. Could be tough on the trails.

Another example of the risk in embarking on a "Long distance" relationship when suddenly an attractive proposition crosses one's path

Am sure you'll enjoy the Chev. A wonderful "early Sunday morning " motivator to go for a drive, because you can!!

So as we are comparing pricing of vehicles throughout different world markets, how much is that thing in the USA. A quick check here puts it around the $280,000AUD mark. Thats around $190,000 USD converted in dollar terms and as in which side of the car the steering wheel is on.

 

[Idahorocks]

Yeah, it’s the polar opposite to the Grenadier but it’s easier to find pavement, harder to find rugged topography in suburban Dallas, so probably a better fit until I retire to the mountains.

It was ~$75,000 (2LT trim level) before tax, title, and license fees. Steering is on the right.

Right?!

 

[Idahorocks]

Right?!

Left, my brain is on a break.

 

[Tazzieman]

Well done , as long as the wife's happy - and keep the shiny side up!

And the Americans think they are being shafted on the price of the Grenadier!!!

You're still talking about cars right?

 

[DCPU]

Well that really extends the scope of the cross shopping thread...
