I can't say I am a fan, but I love that engine. Everytime Clarkson tests one on Top Gear, the receiver gets cranked. It's an absolute symphony.

It is a chicks car, with a great fucking engine. No more a chicks car than the only other thing I had it narrowed down to. This or a Porsche Cayenne, but the kicker was I couldn't get work to spring for the turbo but the AMG worked.

If the W weren't pregnant again and we only had one car seat to deal with I'd have an 07 M5 or an 07 Alpina B7. Car seats x2 and being 6'7" just don't work. That made me narrow it down to things that would work and then could also tow.

Thought about a new Exploder and some mods, but this is the same dough to me and sitting on the inside of one is a WEE bit different in a better way.

Has ALL the goodies.

Alpinas are definitely nice but the thought of an 85 mm sidewall makes me cringe

And I could find no warrantee to cover the rims which scared the SHIT out of me.

West Detroit Metro. Probably am going to pay the $800 to have it shipped though. That comes out of my pocket, but my wife would rather me not leave. Perhaps I'll fly out on a work day anddrive back. I could use some goodies from Chicago and with the blue tooth could actually work the whole day.

sounds like a fun trip!

Going over to the neighbors for a few drinks. Crazy. The guy is exactly my age, just paid 3.6M for his house and then spent 500k remodelling it. Add 50k in taxes a year and I don't get it, but will let him buy drinks.

Knowing what your neighborhood looks like, doesn't surprise me in the least bit.

Have an enjoyable evening. :)

so Vanilla Ice is doing a show on DIY; one of the taglines for the show "the only home improvement show with street cred"

I'm fairly certain I have more street cred than Vanilla Ice...Bob Villa definitely does, he's Cuban, yo

Joining you Peng.

Fuckity fuck buckets!!!!!!!!!

Damn, you appear to have the up graded wheels too!! I am going to demand someone ride in the truck with you during some WOT 0-elevntybillion romps to film it. One of the greatest N/A V-8's of our time!! Now you can buy a bigger boat to at least challenge the torques of this rolling oxymoron. DO NOT WANT GAS BILL. ;)

Sick truck, you knew I would love it. The thrust is unreal, and really intoxicating. Well done Sean!
