Canada Day.....July 1st.

You’ve had your place in Florida long enough. Time to let that Canada day nonsense go. Happy 4th of July!

cars in the fleet is about the only reliable way I have of narrowing down when something happened. Helped when I was swapping them out quicker.

And, prattling on... Driving to/from the BMW dealer in Hyannis yesterday, I spotted 3 Lucid Airs! As well as a couple of Lambos, a Ferrari Lusso and an Alfa 4C... on a flatbed.

Welp, the 4Runner that was supposed to arrive in 20-ish days may arrive today. I guess I gotta tell my wife since I may pick it up tomorrow.

He just sent a text that it just arrived

Another punch for 2025 everyone!
Finally folks, the Sandman has bought a new vehicle!!! They're bringing it to the house as I type this. Details to follow. Got the odometer up to 79,996...never made it to 80K! But hey, that's life. Lots for me to learn these next few days!!!

Congratulations. I suspect it is the grey GTI

I gotta say, while lookey-looing around the BMW lot yesterday, nothing save for the Z4 caught my eye as attractive. Well, maybe the 3 series, but the 2 looks to Lego/Mr. Roboto. The 5 is just awkward, and the new X3 seems to come from the same committee that designed the new 2.

The latest 3er has been uglied up as well- particularly the front fascia. And of course the digital dash is an ergonomic fiasco.

Hey, there's as holiday coming up *very* soon. Hang in there!

I would get normal tires and a spare. It is an option on the X3

The last set of RFTs we had were fine. The first set on a 2011 model were terrible. But, 140K, 10years and 4 sets later, they were pretty good.
