    You know it. :Thumbsup:

    Maybe she will get back on her regular schedule of being waxed 2 times a week.

    It keeps me busy on looooong boring conference calls.

    I swapped Intercoolers, from the GP with a pinhole to a regular sized one.

    The GP one is off to be fixed.

    Put my winter treads on. New England winter- here we come!

    I told my husband I was testing them out in the sand traps at the local golf course.

    Ordered rims and tires from Tire rack today. Very much looking forward to getting rid of the run flats (not needed with my driving profile), upgrading to 17's, and having a tad of bling.

    Anson is going to do CPR on the Blu one in the morning. No big deal really, electronic throttle connection got dunked. My old cars would have laughed that dunking off. Gotta love those old school throttle cables, new fangled wire dealies suck.

    Anson told me he'll do some water proofing for me. I'm envisioning a condom over the throttle body.

    I'm dropping mine off at the body shop first thing in the morning to have the ass fixed. Something tells me that I'm going to hate the rental car.

    Congratulations! Great to hear! Don't worry about the fuel economy, it really doesn't matter..... The more used to it you get, the faster it'll go and the less the mileage is gonna be - is my prediction. Happy Motoring!
