    Me too, I like the Jeep's better. No man, I live in Windsor, SOUTH of Detroit so it has barely snowed here at all...but it does. Last year, we barely got any...I am in the southern most tip of Canada...so no igloos and shiite here lol. No moose either dammit. mmm. moose burgers.

    I pickup my skittle April 20 2004 with 195mi on it.
    the dealer was trying so hard to sell it being it was an 03
    so i picked it up for 18,500
    I dove it for a few months then went on work up, and deployment, then got injured, months of thearpy (about a yrs time) before i could get to drive her again
    now she sits at home basking in the sun waiting for the weekends when shes turned loose on many many corners with 84,000+mi :grin:

    My driver is a 2001 Tracker I bought new with a 130K on it now and runs as new. Of course it is actually a Suzuki Grand Vitara which GM bought and rebadged! Bill

    Now that's funny! Don't think it's possible, remember, you're dealing with (sorta) guys here, lol!

    Which is precisely why I don't drive my maggie everyday ... PARKING!! I would if I had a good spot all the time at work but I don't, sux. I had one real bad exp with my Mustang long ago and it just soured me on public parking forever. At the time that car was my baby (I know, gotta get some pics up) and I'd always park deep. One day at work I was reaaaaaaaaaal deep, no cars within miles. I was as far out there as possible and I could watch it out the window too. So some moron in a huge old 70s Ford boat POS parks right next to me, and I mean RIGHT next to me. Plenty of spaces all around but no, this moron goes all the way to the end and goes right next to me. I'm like "no he's not." The idiot gets out and swings his tank door open and rams it into the side of my car, so hard it set off the alarm not to mention leaving a nice BIG gash. I flipped. I ran out and proceed to get into it with him and ALMOST went serious on his azz (only time I've ever gone that far). What made it worse was this idiot yelled at ME for coming out there! AT ME?!?!? Losers like this have no clue at all and need to be removed from the planet, problem is there's too many of them. Only thing that stopped me was he had a little kid with him, probably 3 or 4 years old and it wasn't a good situation. Kid was scared and I didn't blame him, it was ugly. It was the reality check that kept me from going off on his azz.

    So now instead of turning into Bad Scotty again I have a second car for crappy parking. Keeps me sane, well relatively speaking, lol.

    But this parking job would be grounds for a crippling:

    That's funny. Too bad you're so far away, I'd write you up right now, lol!! I do have a problem with #1, I take 2 spots any chance I get BUT ... they are always deep with no one else around, I make sure of that.

    you gotta be careful with taking 2 spots. it has been known that on occasion people will mess with your car just for taking 2 spots or even parking far away because they think that you think your "special"
