So what does she drive?
My wife has her dream car... A bright red Beetle Turbo.

Leo - congrats on the show place!

Tom - how's your back? I know you're still resting, but you never mention if it's painful or doing better or whatnot.

How did you know when your post would be the last on the page?

Hi Daryl and Mike and Mike and Bill!

It's funny, I now think the shakers are just natural. I don't even think it's weird anymore when someone cuts a whole in their hood.

I had alot of fun. I played blackjack forever! But lost everything I won. I really wanted to get up for a bit and take half to bet on torch red, at your recommendation, but I never got a chance to.

Bill & Tom- Don't worry I'll make sure to include tons of pics with the write up. I assume it isn't to hard to load them from the cd but we'll see.

Karman-The wife drives an Escort. She doesn't want to get a new car because she feels more comfortable driving a car she doesn't care about. Which is why she practically refuses to drive the stang.

Susan-Thanks.Welcome back hope you enjoyed your trip.

Congrats on the 400th post.

K: So what does she drive?
My wife drives her dream car... a Saturn Ion 3. We may get a Vue down the road... or a Sky Redline! No, probably a Vue.

S: I'm here! I'm here. Just catching up from Vegas and it's hard to keep up with you guys. I have about 8 pages to read.
Welcome back, Susan!

S: Tom - how's your back? I know you're still resting, but you never mention if it's painful or doing better or whatnot.
There is still pain shooting down the left leg. I've talked to them and they tell me it's normal (may be internal swelling pressing against the nerve still). I'm going to talk to them again tomorrow. I better be able to drive for the MOSI show on the 14th.

S: How did you know when your post would be the last on the page?
Every 20th post is the last on the page (I think this option can be changed, but I think most don't mess with it).

S: It's funny, I now think the shakers are just natural. I don't even think it's weird anymore when someone cuts a whole in their hood.
Now you're catching on! I've done more stuff to my '89 from watching Monster Garage. I figure if they can do it, why can't I?

S: Post 400!!! Post 400!!! Woo wooo! I get a prize!!!
Movin' on up! I just checked, and even though I have almost 1300 posts, I've only started 10! (Leo's the winner of the group with 92)

L: Bill & Tom- Don't worry I'll make sure to include tons of pics with the write up. I assume it isn't to hard to load them from the cd but we'll see.
OK, you'll be the guinea pig.

L: Which is why she practically refuses to drive the stang.
My wife isn't allowed to drive the Stang... either one!
Wait, means I'm kidding, right? I'm not kidding. __Wait...

What do you get when you cross a Mazda Miata and a Ford Mustang?

Kinda neat, and kinda wrong at the same time:

Here it is! Thanks Kevin and Bill! The file was huge, so I shrunk it down to 40% of it's original size.

I love that the only color on the poster is the red taillights (oh, and the plate). That's the only color on my car, too!

This is why I don't like Deep Dish rims, Leo... look at how horrible these look:

The last 3 pictures on the page really show it.

Looks amazing! Possibly because I was involved in the design process.

It's not my style either, but I know of a few who like them.

Personally, I'd stick to Deep Dish Pizzas and Apple Pies!

To each their own, I guess... but in the 3rd pic from the bottom the rear tire/rim doesn't even look like it belongs on that car.

Should we place bets? Will we lose our post counts and bookmarks again?

Tom, Mr. Grammar Police, I'm surprised you didn't catch me on that one. So unlike me...

We shouldn't lose our post counts or any threads. This is a controlled down time... the other was a crash. If we bet, how would we know the exact time it went down? and then back up?

(At least you spelled grammar correctly.) I'm very disappointed in myself. But, it was late... and I'm on drugs. Speaking of drugs, tonight I start steroids because of the pain in my leg (which they still say is normal). Also, I go on a special nerve drug. I don't know what it's called, but I hope it's covered by my insurance, because it's $130/bottle.
