We don't generally name them

Dealer date is Feb 10 , moved from Feb 3, but I agree it'll be moved up.

There's a lot of time built into the schedule for holidays and weather.

I'd say, send one loafer and one stiletto - we'll keep our options open

PS - love your continually changing avatar of the new digs for your fleet

^ i never name my cars with female names.
4.0 = baby
cayman = hippie
991RS = mango
GMC dually = shamu
wife's car = bread box
964 = chip, patina (both has lots of chips)

latest avatar, i cant figure out how to do a stair i want to go up 8'4", and i am an architect .....
so i decide to remove the stairs cut a hole on that wall so i can take a pic of my daugter.
current design is
1) put lots of pull up bars, i can pull myself up. those who can't, well they can stay on ground floor
2) put a winch up there, grab the rope and turn winch on

to descend, i thought of a firehouse pole. (i do live in a ex-firehouse)

wife has not approve the wild idea yet. and my cast iron claw footed bath tub in the middle of my cave was also vetoed... she also rejected a pool table... something about i will never get any real work done if i had all those in my cave (which is actually my office, well, 200sf of the 3200sf is)

Wild and crazy ideas!
I propose a hand crank old fashioned elevator with wrought iron cage you can see through. Everyone has to WORK to get to the next level.

The cantilevered stairs looked very cool in the previous avatar with your son (I assume that was your son).

As for name - this one might get a name. Right now only candidate is "Chaos" (after Captain Chaos from Cannonball Run).

My SA. Usually we shoot him a text or email asking for an update. Sometimes it comes unsolicited.
Looks like a few of us are on the same schedule and will likely be on the same ship!
