It was a pretty messy, windy, wet day here today, so I can't post pictures of it because it got pretty dirty coming home. (Well, ok, maybe just a teaser pic!)
I can't say more until I get it looking presentable.
Just a bit too tired. Long day, round trip to Winnipeg with the car trailer (hauled a junker to the shredder on the way in), super windy day, I hate city traffic, bla bla bla........
Soon enough grasshoppa, soon enough!

Sorry, been out most of the day with numerous errands and projects. I did find time for a wash job and some pics though.
Although I'm not sold on the "new" car styling, everyone who has one tells me it will be one of the most enjoyable cars I will ever own, so I hope they are right.
361 horsepower, pretty darn good fuel economy, great handling and has to be one of the most comfortable cockpits I've ever sat in, I gotta say. The seats, headrest, controls etc all fit me just perfect, legroom is excellent for my tall wife and myself both.
Funny thing is, it's one of my favourite colours. (Can't be picky when you buy used) I've had a maroon on a 92 Roadmaster, 97 1/2 ton, 98 1/2 ton, 2009 Buick, 86 Cutlass, and likely more I'm forgetting.

We have one sitting here in Clinton (all summer) 12,500 can't seem to find a buyer for it maybe too expensive?
I checked out some ads in Ontario on Kijiji. I see they are cheaper there but honestly, after reading what you guys have to deal with on rust issues, I didn't care how cheap they are there, no way was I doing that.

He's never been in a vehicle yet except for his ride home. That will have to happen in the next couple of weeks when he goes for his sex change operation though!
