Whoa! Doylestown to Fla? In 15 hrs? You are a driver after my own heart! I used to have my '03 serviced at Doylestown. The service mgr. (or maybe he was an asst. service mgr.) was very nice and really helpful. Unfortunately, the sales dept. let me down when I was looking to buy the '07, so I had to buy the car elsewhere. Congratulations and good luck with the new car.

It was a great way to get to know the car.

The tint is 5% I believe. I went to the same place that has done all of my cars and told them to put the limo tint on. It's not legal in Florida but I've never been pulled over in the 9.5 years living here yet for having it.

Also, on my drive from Doylestown, PA to Fort Lauderdale...it took me 18 hours for the trip not 15. The 15 hours was from my in-laws in Washington DC. I cruised between 80-90 the whole way down I-95, didn't see a single cop the entire way. The car rode like it was gliding on air.
