So did you and your better half get those new seamless, cleanroom jumpsuits embroidered with the Flying W yet?

Nope, no Running W suits yet. LOL!
What do you plan to keep the leather "fit" with?
And were their any Ford "gifts" with the truck?
Dunno yet. We didn't get goodies with the first KR until about 3 or 4 months down the road. As of yet, no one has reported a spiff.
Again - congratulations on the 2005 King Ranch - and in Black !!!

I hate to see another "Chestnut" taken out, but, hopefully the next owner will appreciate what he/she has!

Well RP, you did it. I knew once you started test driving it you wouldn't hold out long. Congrats and enjoy it. Things like this are what we work so hard for anyway. Work and the like things in our lives somehow have a way of working out. Again congrats!

Not sure what I'm going to utilize as of yet. I'll be honest, I was very impressed with the job that Meguiar's Gold Class Rich Aloe Conditioner did on my old KR. I seriously doubt it'll be krsaddleshop conditioner.

I think that "Goodies" might be a thing of the past !
Those of us that ordered the very first 01 KR's were very surprised to get a package delivered to the door that included either personal planners or desktop organizers and Saddleshop cleaner.
It didn't last long however and early 02 orders did not receive the gifts., and to the best of my knowledge none have appeared since !!
My personal opinion is that Ford were surprised with the level of interest in the KR branding, and someone in financial control soon worked out the long term implications of supplying these gifts !!

Just like Lenny mentioned... those of us that bought 01's got goodies. You'll occasionally see one or two float across ebay...
I had a day planner (in castano leather of course) and a bottle of KR conditioner. Others got a portfolio and conditioner...

Trouble is that those KR gifts were so nice I don't want to use them.
I originally had the desktop organizer, then recently I bought the planner on E bay.
They just sit in a cupboard here in England and occasionally I get them out to look at them...then put them back in the box !!!

Good point Mike...
Last year's SD had a very nice little cooler that was canvas and Castano... I forgot about that.
Maybe we'll get something... I won't hold my breath though.

When I purchased the 01 I received the portfolio and leather conditioner.
Don't think we'll get anything with our 05's though.
The bean counters will see to that. My new 05 doesn't have the voice recorder on the HomeLink like the 01 or the reading lamps over the rear doors. The Slasher has struck.

Yeah, it actually worked itself out after removing my Xenarcs. I can't explain it.
