Yay!!! I'm excited for you. I still remember making the deal on mine how happy I was. And the day I drove it 200 miles home with a HUGE smile the whole time. For sure we need pictures.
See if you can be there when they put the tires on. Make sure they put balancing stuff inside. I'd buy 10 sets of dynabeads and watch them put those in. My tires were pretty crappy and when I finally got new steers I was there the whole time the mechanic worked on it. When he pulled the old tires off there was nothing inside to balance them. We put the dynabeads in and that combined with new tires made a HUGE difference. It was so much smoother I couldn't believe it. I've also heard those things that mount behind the rim work well for balancing. My tire guy had never seen dynabeads. He said he usually uses these packages of plastic beads that also work well.
Good call on the vent covers. I have those and it's great to be able to leave the vents open going down the road and in the rain.
