    Congrats :D

    Sounds like some Depends might be in order when you go to pick it up though.

    Alcatara is apparently very good stuff but why take chances. :jester:

    Well Manny, what a great ending ! This played out just like a Frank Capra movie.

    We have our protagonist, Manny dreaming and hoping for his very own Tabasco... The evil villain, Vandergriff... our heroine, The Empress Dianne who saves the day. Plus a cast of 2000+ PriusChatters.

    Let's see, I think I see Tom Hanks in the role of The Big Bald Cuban. Give him enough time to study and he'll have you right down to the toenails!

    Congratulations,
    Gene

    Actually, I was thinking of Christopher Walken. Nice and weird.

    I'm not certain Tom Hanks should play Manny. I'm thinking perhaps Antonio Banderas might be a good choice.

    From me, yes. Beware of the evil empire (Vandergriff) they might steel it and sell it for 5K extra

    Oh Manny! :D
    It's a pleasure to bring a smile to your face and a resolution to the sad frustration you were faced with. I'm glad I could help. Just enjoy it when it gets there!! And, take your patient and probably very sweet wife to the best dinner out that she'd enjoy! Maybe a quiet weekend away somewhere special...

    God Bless and have a fantastic weekend!

    I think there's probably lots of spouse/partners/friends that wish the Prius was never invented :mrgreen:

    This is a quote I sometimes ponder at times like this. In regards to:


    and

    " Ah yes, the gifts of <a href=\'http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=celibacy\' target=\'_blank\'>Celibacy</a>"

    Peace,

    Mine was certainly one. It was about a year ago last week that I ordered my '04 as a Pioneer buyer. From shortly before that time until last October (and then a few weeks after that) - my poor wife hardly had a "Mr. Spinnr" until then. Part of her was glad the car finally came, but the other part wanted to burn it to the ground the moment it arrived! :-(

    Re: oh Rick...

    Uh, Rick buys a new car and his WIFE gets the old one? That would have worked out a bit differently around my house. :lol:

    Works Just the opposite in my house. Unless there is a reason that my wife needs the old car, she always gets our (her) new Prius to drive. Will be "solving" that soon (?next March?) with a second Prius but I have been informed that I will get our current pkg #3 black and she will take the newer pkg #7 white. :lol:

    Worked the same way in my parents house. Not sure about my in-laws.
