It's at the body shop.  Trying to get a new Yukon/Tahoe as a rental.  The owner is our neighbor so they gave us a 2002 Tahoe to drive for now until the Chrysler 300's insurance company authorizes the rental car (1 or 2 days).

Wife was a stop light when he hit her, probably on the phone.  He tried to swerve to miss her but failed.  Got a ticket and he only has liability, bad day for him!  At least it's only a V6 300 lol.

Kinda like an Easter Egg in a computer operating system... They are cool. I have seen a few, but if I have one in my ride it's still hiding!

Oh yeah I forgot you bought a 15 as well. How do you like it? Are you in love with the way the doors close like I am? It's amazing. Any pics?

Must have me confused with some really lucky guy! ... When I hit the lottery I'll buy a new DD SHO and then go crazy on this one!

I did say you are in good company with BiGMaC, didn't I?  Sorry for the confusion, simply meant both of you have a '13 SHO and a nice Ford rig!

Well then.... not sure if I like it over my beloved E63 S AMG but... it looks good and I'd probably drive one. Maybe.... idk. Can't bring myself to the GM side that easy.. http://m.caranddriver.com/features/2016-cadillac-cts-v-in-depth-with-the-four-door-corvette-feature

I'm trying to stay true to Ford, but that new CTS V might be enough to pull me to the dark side. It's either keep the SHO and pickup a 13/14 Shelby or trade in the SHO and roll a CTS V for both work and play. Waiting to see what the pricing of the Caddy is going to be.
