    Same in SF Bay Area. Or you can get 100 octane racing fuel for ~$9/gal. :-)
  2. 🛠 1/3/22 Build Week Group

    Our bids are coming in @ ~$1300. At least one of the places also does vinyl and I'm thinking I can have them do the letters on the grille while Steamboat is sunbathing.
  3. 🛠 1/3/22 Build Week Group

    I'm evaluating several first hand recommendations from people I trust and several replies from a Yelp inquiry. It seems the best guys want to see the truck first hand and make sure we're on the same page--touchy subject. (We just got bumped again into 3 more days of Rail Yard Limbo.) One...
  4. 🛠 1/3/22 Build Week Group

    Hmmm. We asked our dealer about ceramic coating. They offered to do it for $895, but to be sure of quality, we're going with an independent shop. Your mention of Ford Protect SurfaceCare is the 1st I've heard of it. Looks like a good package, but our dealer didn't offer it. "Tree sap, bird...

    Rail Yard Limbo Day #13 and bumped again. :( Pizza tracker pushed us back from 2/11 to 2/14. The saga is in my signature. I am going to bug my sales guy tom'w. He said in a 1/27 e-mail it could be 1-2 weeks. Tomorrow is 2 weeks. I remember one person on this forum whose dealer expedited...

    Which coating(s) did you get and did you do windows & roof w/ it?
  7. 🛠 1/3/22 Build Week Group

    There is a generally a dense fog between "Built" and "Delivery." Were you able to get a railcar # and start tracking on CSX and UP to the West by God?
  8. "DO NOT USE 93 OCTANE" ?

    Here in the SF Bay Area, one of our 76 stations serves racing fuel @ 100 octane @ $9/gal. (It's probably the Sunoco product.) I treated my 5L V8 Mustang to it a couple of times, but will just use the 91 for "Steamboat."

    First Batch MY 22

    @daddycreswell , do I feel another vinyl add on coming up?
  10. 🛠 1/3/22 Build Week Group

    I like the retro script one, but might also like ones like you plan for rear doors. (Mine is (er...will be...) 2-dr) Just the horse. If you plan to offer these to other than First-Batchers (we sound like Flat Earthers), you probably don't want the top one. Thanks for your industry and creativity!

    That's your ramp @ your destination city. You can probably look up the CSX ramp codes; I only have them for UP.
  12. 🛠 1/3/22 Build Week Group

    Few people, if any, got a shipping notice. Ask your dealer for your rail car number and start calling the automated train trackers. It's a sometimes tedious, sometimes nerve-wracking vigil.

    Beautiful view of the actual mountain. Where do we send $$ to bail you out for flying your drone over it? :-) (Someone should actually ski down it!)
  14. 🛠 1/3/22 Build Week Group

    This was not true for me. My build day showed as and was executed on 1/9. At that point the pizza tracker showed EDD 1/28-2/2. It was on the train on 1/18, got to San Jose 1/27, and has been in Rail Yard Limbo ever since. EDD went from the original estimate --> 2/13 --> 2/06 --> 2/08 --> 2/11. I...

    How incriminating! Someone is getting a raise in her allowance for hush $$. :)

    Love your Insta. Which tailgate table did you get?
  17. Extended warranty

    There is also the intangible of peace of mind. Statistically, we lose and the insurance company wins. I dislike all insurance for that reason. But I, and my husband more so, have a little program always running in our heads: "what if we need really big repairs......" (My husband is on his 3rd...
  18. Extended warranty

    We will try to do that too. That negotiation is a game time decision, right?--when you're signing the papers? I really like our sales guy and the whole small dealership, so we would give them the benefit of the warranty $$ if they give us a good deal.. One stipulation would be that the price of...
  19. Extended warranty

    The truck comes with a warranty. Some Posters have said they buy a new policy after 2 years and 11 mos (on a 3-yr warranty). However, we just checked Flood: no matter when you buy, they start the coverage from the date of purchase, 0 miles. So we save a bit by buying now, before the price goes...

    Fabulous!!!!!!! (BTW, I could only play the video by right-clicking on download and opening in QuickTime)
