It’s because my girlfriend isn’t about the retire… lmaoo
i got an update of my own. My ship is hitting the Panama Canal today and my sales guy called to tell me they are seeing an estimate of December 27 to January 3 for the car to arrive to the dealer. We shall wait and see I guess.

with that timeframe it sounds like your side is moving ships faster out of port than we are here in Portland 😞 @flighthalo is at 12 days and counting for being stuck at port

Tipsy - That is great news and I really hope that the timeline will workout. I will say that I am a bit puzzled by how long it takes to get from the port to the dealer, now maybe it is still related to the COVID port backups however, it still seems longer than what I would expect. I mean I am looking at Shoeboy's car, I think it reached the port like 2 weeks now and it is still not in his hands

^^ I think someone borrowed it and is doing a trip to NY and back and will then reset the odometer (LMAO) - At least you won't have to wait for the break in period HA HA HA

^^ How do you find all these videos - or do you make them yourself?!?! Seriously, thanks for giving something else to watch

Noticed: So Canada's LE does NOT have the sunroof after all but has the powered telescopic/retracting steering wheel (maybe it was the seat moving I could hear)

Edit #2: All shined up, that color looks great I have to admit

That is a good look for those that may be on the fence about the LE. No power wheel adjustment or sunroof on that one but it has the memory seats

^^ I didn't see the power **** on the steering column but when he pressed the accessory, was that the seat we could hear moving or the steering column? Maybe you are right...
