Friggin A John. Congrats. Try a little Tylenol PM for the next few nights, but it won't work.  :drool:  

I'm glad you are driving her back home. Enjoy it for every mile, just don't stop in any traffic.   :banghead:

I know the wait was long and torturous but you should be very proud that you made it and these cars are fantastic.

Of course we all will want updates and pics.
