^^^^^ Now there's an idea!

 

It took me all of 1 day to catch up because nothing has been going on here.

I mean really, healthcare.gov has more traffic and that site sucks. :lol:

I have been here in read only mode for a long time.

 

Welcome back Dave! M/A isn't the same without you...

Look forward to our future arguments. [emoji12]

 

Dave.1... HA Ha I freakin' love it! [emoji12]

 

Dave.1 is the new kinder gentler Dave meant to be appealing to all audiences.

 

That's okay, I'll just sit back a wait for the inevitable to happen again...[emoji95][emoji95][emoji95][emoji481]

 

So what's keeping you around if you find it so juvenile ..... not like you were really missed.

 

Your favorite folks still post...lol Gnuck (or whatever the name is)and the other one still check in with "issues"...ostcount

 

Every site needs drama to attract traffic.

An Internet forum, or message board, is an online discussion site where people can hold conversations in the form of posted messages.

It does not say we all have to like each other, care what others opinions are and drink the BMW / MINI koolaide. We are all not the same and we will all never agree period. Once some people understand that on M\A the world will be a better place.

Just because someone has an opinion does not mean that I or anyone else has to care, but I will respect that they can have their option even if the are completely wrong.

 

Like I said earlier, Dave...sit down and puff on one of those cigars I gave you [if any are left]. Relax...yeah, I know that's an impossible dream for you and those who goad you, but, I'd hate to see you back on the outside looking in [without an opinion to voice]...again! :frown2:

 

Nice.

 

Welcome back Dave, and fwiw - I actually like the new Clubman more than the new Cooper S - give it about 280hp at the wheels, a true mechanical LSD and nice tightened suspension and it would be a good daily all year round driver. Thus saving the R53 for fun and summer duty.

 

You need to get some MINI badges for it. Then take it by the MINI dealer so they can get a sneak peek at the next big MINI.

 

R60? I am guessing it's slower, probably won't corner as well as the Clubman. But since you already bought it - you are ahead of the game!:devil:

 

I am sure it suits his purposes very well. Although I think he still has that cool Jeep for the really rough stuff.

 

Yep for the first time since 2005 I don't have a real 4X4... The ZooK went to scrap to pay for the engine in the Rat, and the white Jeep got the boot for the Porker when the engine was about to go.
I miss having a real trail rig, but don't miss paying for the fuel. One day I'll have another Jeep, but not for a while... All the Commifornia transplants are shutting down all the off road trails here anyhow. [emoji30]

But yeah the stock R60 can do light fire road duty to get to easy campsites, but its hell on the clutch trying to keep moving slow enough to not break stuff.
