Talk about withdrawals! My new stang showed up last night, all full of IUP and I could not share that good news with you guys!

We picked it up and drove it home through all the slush and salt and sand from this weekend's snow storm. It got all dirty, but it was fun to drive. At one point I gunned it to pass a slowpoke parked in the left hand lane on I-95. As I zoomed around him, my 15 year old son (sitting next to me) said: "I have been waiting for you to do that!"

How about some bananas for the cause?

I tried to attach a picture-but of course, that don't work! :bang:

He pointed out that he can get his learner's permit in April! I know he will end up driving it some.

I would have been like that guy that had his trucked to his house rather than drive it in the snow and salt. Don't get POd if the kid gooses it after seeing you do it. Leave him at home when you really air it out. and above all don't brag about it !

Thanks Lisa. Gave her a good coat of wax before the ice storms hit today! It had some kind of stuff all down the inside of the driver door-like the door had been opened and some dirty snow sluch had slid down the inside. Got all that cleaned up, and had to fight off all the neighbors who came crawling out in the cold to check her out.

At the car wash today the manager had to yell at all the teenagers-they all wanted to dry my car. The little gal driving it up told me "this is the coolest car I have ever seen. I am SOOOOO going to get one".

Another lady came over and said "that car is a bad mother F***er". No one ever said that to me before!
