Tex-Mex Coney from Sonic

So I am a self-proclaimed Hot Dog Afficiando (more like a fan).
One glorious day on Facebook I see that Sonic (love it more than my luggage) had come up with a new coney.  The Tex-Mex Coney to be exact.  There was a cute video of football players with names like "cheese", "chili" and "chipotle' all piling up on each other to advertise the pile up on the coney.
I sent out a Facebook post (PLEA) for someone to bring me one immediately-didn't happen (I need a better group of FB friends apparently).
24 or so hours later, I get my hands on one-it is very heavy!  I get back to the office and break out the metal fork as no plastic fork will handle all this.  First thing I notice is the Fritos are not real crunchy and did not have a strong "Frito" smell.  Sonic needs to make sure those are fresh and crunchy.  While there is not a layer on this Coney I don't adore individually, it seems they just didn't mix as I had anticipated.  Don't get me wrong, it was still good, but I think I will stick to the original Long Chili Cheese Coney (my first love).
I will however keep trying new things as I am adventurous with my food choices.
For those of you who want to try it, it is $3.99 and comes with Tator Tots.  It is quite a bit of food by itself the tots are included in the price might as well take them.
Happy Dawg Hunting!
