What is more exciting is watching Janet and WSF climb into theirs!

Yeah there is probably more risk involved getting in and out after a few drinks than a big day at Pistol. Jl, the dogs are supposed to go in the crate under the tarp!

The new version of the transit connect looks pretty slick too. Too bad these things are not cheap at all.

I think you can sleep in the back seat. And put lots of giant boards on the roof. And you don't need to remortgage.

:lol: that looks frightfully similar to mom's car that you and I shared for our first vehicle (after we got our driver's licenses as teens) that I remember usually filling the tank for ;)
Our second shared vehicle the 5-spd blue Ford Mustang was much better!:)

Pasta-man, I like your style. I always wanted one of these, as probably the ugliest car ever made, but that brings with it some unique style of its own. As the ad says "amazing little car rides like a Buick", hard to argue with that. Can't you picture rocking up to the beach with your boards on this baby?

Great wind chaser....unless the chase requires climbing a hill in which case, you'll be fashionably late 8)

RHD scares me silly on left hand turns. Now if those things were LHD I'd have one for sure!
