Good morning all, I am Scott and I live in Petaluma, CA.This past weekend I purchased a new 2017 XF-S in Storm Grey with the black pack.Its currently back at the Jaguar service center getting the gloss black tires,a couple of light scratches buffed out, and since its there they are takingcare of 4 other service actions that they show needed to be completed. I will besure post a picture when I get it back. I love the car thus far but stilltrying to figure out the technical stuff so I need to schedule the Handover Encore service soonest.

I gotthe below packages:
BlackPackage
Comfort& Convenience Package
TechnologyPackage
LuxuryInterior upgrade Package
WheelLock Pack

Alittle about me, I was originally born and raised in Huron Ohio were I joined the U.S. Coast Guard right out of high school, I am now a 30 year retired veteran of the U.S. Coast Guard, I retired from active duty back in 2011 but continue to work for the Coast Guard still as a civil service employee workingon my second pension. I am married and have two kids who are out of the house and doing great on their own. Hobby wise, I used to be into diesel truck sledpulling for approx 10 years and got out of that when I retired from active duty old web page www.BigBadDodge.com Now I am getting into wood working and converting my 3+ car garage into a full blown wood shop.

Lookingforward to communicating with you all, and learning more about the features ofthe XF.

Welcome to the forum Scott,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

Follow this link XF (X260) - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the X260 forum for help, advice and information.


Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

I can see you've already found the US Western Region forum so there's no need for a link to it from me.


Enjoy the forums and your XF-S ...... when you get it back from the dealer!

Graham

Welcome, Scott! Glad to have another North Bay Jag owner on the list. My wife is from Petaluma and we currently live in Redwood Valley, out among the vineyards. A friend of mine lives just north of Petaluma and has an XJS and a couple of Land Rovers. Hope we cross paths, one of these days.
