Moose, Bear and CF sightings in Alaska.

After nearly two months waiting for my CF to be delivered to Korea, and still waiting, I finally saw two CFs during my stay in Alaska. One beautiful metallic blue roadster and a SSB coupe. They are definitely beautiful cars.

I hope the Alaska connection joins the forum.

I had a little extra time so I went to a local Chrysler Dealer. CF $35K and no year end discount. Sat in a SSB Coupe with Cedar/Gray interior. I didn't care much for the Cedar/Grey combination; didn't like the wheel in cedar. But the seats were very comfortable and seemed supportive. I am six foot and 165 lbs and found ample room throughout the cabin. Steering wheel position was fine and I thought the gages were very easy to read. Limited view out the rear window but not as bad as I had thought it was going to be from reading the comments on this forum. As for the plastic silver trim, I found it better than what I was excepting too. In fact, I rather liked the look. Plastic is great; strong and light. The best part is that Chrysler did not attempt to make it look like carbon or wood. Nothing worse than plastic wood. As for the cup holder, I think Chrysler should eliminated it. How does it work as a MP3/iPod holder?

As for my CF, eta is set for the August 31. However, it will probably take an additional 3 days for it to arrive in Seoul.

Received my International CF decal - nice design - will apply upon delivery. And I have received my cover from CarCovers. I ordered an All-weather cover in Red; its light and offers good protection from wind and rain. Reasonable price.
