Default docked this am

Sirius Highway docked this morning at 7AM accordind to portofhouston.com website. Now I find out how lng it takes to get from Houston to N.O. by truck. Break-in begins soon I hope,but will only last as long as my patience holds out. I believe that current manufacturing tolerances and finishes on engine components need minimal run-in just so the rings conform to the cylinder.

Wagoneers got my TT from Brunswick, GA to Houston in one overnite haul. I don't know how much that guy must have tweaked to do it but there is no way yours should take more than 1 day

Default Ship gone

Checked the port of Houston website this am. Ship was in yesterday, unloaded and left already! WHERE IS MY CAR! I know I am being a little impatient now that it is so close, but dayum this is unenjoyable. Garage is ready, wash, polish, wax, protection is waiting.

OK. Called the dealer, the car made it off of the boat. No further info until the moneyroney sticker is printed then I find out when to expect it. Going fishing until then to keep my mind off of it. Yea, right!!!!
