    Joe didn't tell you guys the HALF of the story!!!! Joe picked up his car today. My guys wanted to load him up before the Open House. I thought it would be cool to show 500 or so people the pick-up, so I had Jason ask Joe to pick-up around 9:30 am. All was perfect, the Open House was rocking and then i heard a massive crash. After 7,000 cars, the load chain broke and the car fell about 3 feet to the ground. The guys were doing everything right and all people were clear of the load, so no-one was hurt. Fortunately we had another matching GTM in stock for next week and swapped it out. Now we have a GTM that we'll have to fix and sell as "damaged". Joe is a SUPER guy and totally cool. I wouldve freaked out if I saw my dream car hit the bricks... wait, nevermind, done that a few times already!
