    Congratulations Ron. Glad to see that you went with the 6 speed. Any chance of a close-up photo of the window sticker? I'm interested in what the bottom line turned out to be.

    You will have some gas money then! I hope the weather in Houston is better than in the DFW area (wouldn't want to pick up a new car here today although at least the predicted ice never materialized).
