I'm excited for you ... I think? Fill me in on this like I'm dumb because I know nothing of pretty much anything but Jeeps and Broncos 😂

Yeah thanks. I’m really not brand loyal.
I seek out fine machines. My 2dr 2.7 Sasquatch Black Diamond fits this bill.
Ok Laura, how about 535hp and 520 ft lbs of torque from a NA V8!

Haha, I can understand that! That's awesome. I did a quick search and saw it's slated as a gap-bridger between every day comfort and track capability -- it is a daily + track type of car then? Is that your use case for it?

Well I’m not much of a track guy as I proved at Miller Motor Sports when I did Ford’s promotional Boss 302 Track Attack. Nerve racking trying to drive on the edge. My C8 will be joining my Boss and Audi TT as just another real cool street driver.
Sorry, I underutilize all my vehicles including my Bronco. Doesn’t mean I don’t enjoy them.😎

No shame in that, just curious. I can truly now say that yes, I'm excited for you. How is production looking over there these days? Looking at an early Jan arrival?

It is fun having a host of vehicles to drive at will… Mine are nowhere near so “exotic” but I enjoy driving them all nevertheless…

I guess time will tell. Their prediction is 8-12 weeks production then shipping to dealer for prep and then shipping directly to my home in an inclosed trailer. Lucky for that because I’m really not counting on seeing it until after Thanksgiving. Doesn’t matter to me as it’s probably just going into my heated garage until spring anyway. I live in the arctic 🥶 zone called Minnesota.

Clicked in expecting spacers and coilovers, got a C8. Well played. That front lift is the only thing that makes those survivable around here — every gas station apron in Texas is a ramp.
