    I'm looking for a word that says: Perfectly awesome, and quite possibly better than she ever was.

    I don't do that good in my own dreams.

    As Errett Lobban Cord said, upon seeing the 810 for the first time - "A Goddam WOW!!"

    I am sure that truck is nicer now than it ever dreamed of before...absolutely spotless, and breathtaking. The pictures do not do this build any justice. Luckily got a chance to drool Friday before the crowds were too crazy...

    Gene was really excited about it when I talked to him on Friday, making sure everyone had seen "his truck"...
