Do you realize that in about 30 (updated as requested) years, we'll have millions of old ladies running around with tattoos?

I see what you did there...


Choosing a car based on reliability is like choosing a wife based solely because she is punctual. There is more to it than that...

Saw a LC-500 convertible rumble by my house a few minutes ago.  Looked and sounded fantastic.   8)

Don't know what's under the bodywork, but the scale is way off what it should be.  :P

Also saw a nice blue C2 Corvette go by, sounded great.

RSQ8
I didn't know that was a thing.

I saw one recently and didn't know it was a thing either. Had to look it up, 591 hp 4.0L V8.

Jesus, that looks huge. I'd honestly love to know what chassis that's on...

Just around the corner from our new property is a favorite anchorage spot on the River.  I counted 36 boats anchored in there today and they were still coming in when i left.  I suspect there was some type of gtg going on because it's the most I've seen.  More than a few were >50 feet and at least one was a 65 footer.   





Just saw this Tom.   Given the date I'd say RKYC annual cruise.
Old Jag convertible...one itch I won't have to scratch again.

Good sized trunk in the 5.0.
That’s a 4 ft step ladder which I had to buy to replace the other a previous tenant stole! LOL

Yeah probably.

I was referring to the black colour and the generic looking wheels.

I snapped this one for Ron.  I dropped off the winter tires for the guy who bought the Civic, and he had three of these.  JDM Toyota Soarer with the 1JZ-GTE

Yeah, I’m thinking of reasons each morning to go drive it. With that exhaust it’s anything but subtle though.
Every time I drive it reminds me of Steve McQueen.
