A New Hope (2022 version)
2020: nope, pandemic problems...
2021: nope, supply chain problems...
2022: hope, throw me a bone?
You'd think if your typical karma being "if it weren't for bad luck, you'd have no luck" was stacked against "third time's the charm" fantasy, you might still lose. Yup, third time, going for a Gen6. This Labor Day gave me shock, in a cherry kinda way. Lucked out with TPW 8/16. Whoa, actually built that week then bayed at Toledo railyard 8/28. Joe helped confirm it made it to the destination railyard 9/3'ish. Went out for a motorcycle ride today, the WI railyard is close enough to STP, planned to peer through the fence to maybe, just maybe see my car. On the way, stopped by the dealership to drop off some pre-delivery stuff. From a distance, before arriving, caught the red and chrome and thought "could this be happening??" Seems the stork delivered my baby secretly Sunday or early today when nobody was watching! YMMV, but 2022s are reaching their dreamers, folks.
