Unhappy Missing it already...

It's only been two days, but I miss the beast already. *sigh*

Even though I couldn't drive it in the snow, there was a comfort of knowing it was at home.

It will be days before I get it back. *sniff sniff* It's always so hard to leave it somewhere with OTHER people...

HaHa. Wait until you get it back though it will be a great feeling. I know when I don't drive my truck for a while and then I get in it "it feels like the first time" it is such a great feeling. -Mat-

I feel your pain. Mine has been in the garage under cover since the last week in November. I did uncover it to remove the seats for reupholstering. It is really kind of nice though as the first time I take it out in the Spring it feels new again.
Only about 6 weeks to go hopefully.

Its been chitty weather here in Toronto since late November. We had one day where the temp was above the freezing level and I took the L out to get the fluids moving etc,... and its the best feeling in the world. It truly is like your first time in the L, kinda like when you haven't gotten laid in a while and then.... well ... nevermind lol...

I can't wait for the salt to be dissolved off the roads by the spring showers. I was watching the J15BIG L video today and oh man I miss the Eaton whine so much. First thing in spring is a fresh coat of wax and a new set of pics!!


I talk too much, I know lol

Cheers!

thx guys. Looks like it will get good care at the Jaguar place, everyone in the service bay was looking at it and talking to me about it when I dropped it off. They all loved it.... glad to see that its not just Lightning owners who can't help but stare at the trucks.

Just so beautiful...

What you having Jaguar do to it, Dan? One of the guys
at my FORD shop is a former Jag mechanic... Told me that
all of the Jag mechs treated the cars like they were their
own ... (Wonder if that means they beat on them?)

Good luck this year ...

My friend and his brother are tech's at the Jaguar place, so they hooked me up with the service manager. His brother is going to be doing the work on it.

Figured it was better then going to strangers at the SVT shop.
