OT--new ride
Not satisfied with having an 08 GL550 and an 08 Silverado 2500 we went and bought a Shelby GT500.
These aren't photos of ours (I pulled these off ebay) but this is what we bought.
It's just a pure, fun muscle car....and a total blast to drive!
And, makes me appreciate the luxury of the GL...

I do think our GT500 is the only one on the west coast with a car seat in the back though.
But I did buy a Recaro car seat so it would seem like it belonged!

Congratz on the new bomb Chicky! When you get the Shelby, take it and the GL550 out and do a test to see if the GL can keep up with (or in my wildest dreams) beat the Shelby.

Beautiful new ride, Chicky! I'm a huge Mustang fan and would love to have one as my "fun" car, but just can't fit 3 Labs into it to justify having it!
One for low and fast and one for high and slow...
