Leaving tomorrow!

Greetings,

I would like to introduce myself. I've been lurking for quite a while on this website and finally took the plunge several weeks ago. Tomorrow night I leave for Memphis, TN to pick up my new 2002 EB Z06. I'll be driving it back home (approximately 520 miles). I'm pretty darn excited and can definitely sympathize with the can't sleep and can't eat thread.

Nice! Have a safe trip and enjoy your ride home. What a perfect mileage for breaking your car in.

My pickup was very much like yours. I hope you have as good luck with your car as I have had with mine.

Missileman, Welcome to the forum it's me can't eat or sleep.

Bro it's raining in the Dallas/Fort Worth area
The dealership is about 50 miles from my home.

There is a break in the weather on Thurs. no rain

So I will have to wait one more day

The Z will be my weekend car I don't want to drive her in the rain.

I have a 2001 GMC 1500 ext. cab for a daily driver.

I don't have the Z yet and I am all


Darwin.

Welcome to the forum! After you pick up your Z06 you should swing by Bowling Green on your way home. This is the 50th Kickoff weekend.
