Welcome to the IHoP

Recommended Posts

are you talking about the pantera Sean?

No that has to come later. I HAVE to sell my car, motorcycle, and wives car first. She gets a car before I do, mostly because I am more confident in selling her car than mine right now being awd. As soon as she gets something that can tow the boat, I will sell my truck. Then we have someone vault the garage ceiling, I shop for a lift, and then the Pantera can come. Considering it's Oct in MN, now wouldn't be the best time anyways. My guess is spring 2011 is my target to be driving it date.

He wouldn't be texting then, they take your phone :P

That's true. Do they in the drunk tank too?

Maybe he's just in holding and they gave him a cash cab style phone a friend.

:D

Even in detox. Perhaps he needs some help with the walk of shame. :P

I probably shouldn't be looking for an XC90 sport for her as the 19" tires are absurd. I really prefer the way the body is clad, perhaps I can get the dealer to swap rims with an all season equivalent although I hate that idea as well.

She drives legally always, but still has a tendency to get rear ended so I figure getting her in red won't hurt. Plus it looks good. And there is something about a lady in red.

I know. He probably has his left arm stuck under a hoggin prize and doesn't want to wake the beast, so he figures in an hour or so he can slowly slide out without disturbing the sleeping giant.

volvo's have the second best seats only beat by AMG seats.

At least since the last time I checked.

I think I have talked myself out of the 996. I did some reading on it, and it's 99% horror stories about the cylinder sleves comming out. The turbo's didn't have the problem because it was an over built engine. Same with the 2002 or later models.

:(

Back to finding a sedan/small SUV that makes my right foot happy.

If you need paint/body, when the time comes, one of my closest friends has won a few awards for his pain on classics. I'm not soliciting him because he needs work actually, but because he is THAT good. He does things right.

I don't know if I ever put up the lambo fiero convert he did... AMAZING considering the body panels in some spots were more than 1/4 inch off.

Definitely always interested in a good body man. Hopefully what I buy won't need it, but nonetheless it may "get it" anyway.

Look into an Aviator or Mountaineer. Both have full-time AWD and at least 290HP, depending on the year. And the Aviators came with the DOHC engine.

Had some awesome mexican food in Milwaukee. Shrimp in a Habanero blue cheese sauce. May be the hottest thing I have ever eaten and was amazing with the blue cheese.

*had hotter bites or sauces, just not plates full

Protein shake now.

I might make eggs a bit later. I just want to get my day started.... not that I am going to do ANYTHING productive.

If our plans are intact at all I'll be down at morries. I forget what he wanted to look at, but maybe They will have another gem today. I still get sweaty palms thinking about that b7 that they had lol.

The Volvo has 311 and is for the w. I actually really enjoyed driving it as well. Not really fast, not at all truck like, but still capable of yanking my boat around and yes the seats are super comfortable. I also prefer the Euro style interiors.

Don't know that I'd be towing a boat with that thing, but they are nice. You want to talk about a quiet ride. . . . They made one in Europe with a small V8. I'd like to get my hands on one of them and throw it in an AWD 500. Same platform. . .

I shall sir. I'm open to anything really. I may step my needs down even. I did find a 2006 B on B cayenne turbo in chicago for ~35 if I remember.

MMmmmmMmmm
