Today might be the day we actually pick up our new 2011 CR-X EX. Keeping my fingers crossed. I signed all the papers last week because they said it was coming in "in a few days". Little did I know a few is now a week. I always thought it was two, at the most. Oh well.
We are very excited but have tempered expectations - I still have to call the guy at noon to see what the story is. My father said a Honda driver was at the shop today and mentioned a shit-load of cars came in - I hope my black CR-V is one of them. I am wearing thin on patience with this guy and this dealership. I have never heard of a car dealership selling a a car without actually having the car. I guess it's partly my fault because I never asked to see the car - stupid dolt.
I should also be able to pick up Big Blue - it needed some work on the front end but should be ready to rock and roll. I love driving my father's Avalanche - the thing is a beast (on gas too). I feel like I am driving around in a monster truck.
Oh well, I am still trying to recover from that dreadful 13 hour bus ride. I showered last night and have yet to take one today - I know, gross.
Men's lacrosse game today at 3pm. I will stop by there for a little while just to make sure everything is running smooth.
Time to get after some scouting reports. Later y'all.

Dealers sell either off the lot, or by special order. If you want special packages in your vehicle, it's common that the car has to be made in order to accommodate the packages that you want. Otherwise, it's usually just a standard stock car, or a car with the minimum packages on it.
I've never ordered one, so not sure how long it takes to make one. Then of course, if the maker is overseas, it's also a question of shipping it, making sure it's in one piece, passing through customs etc.
I ordered mine in late Oct and just got it a week ago today. Of course I ordered it and knew the time frame of delivery would be in early Feb. at earliest. Still I know what it's like to wait for it. But now that I have it, I love it and it was totally worth waiting for.
Dude-I have a feeling that this is gonna work out just as well for you folks as well, just hang in there Bro!
