Steve I'd be interested in doing a winter get together, since i'll be back in the Cleveland area again for a few months.

Happy late Bday Jon

First, any interest in setting up a winter get together? everyone has kind of seemed to drop off the face of the earth recently...

Next... as winter approaches, I want to remind everyone that I can provide storage for your car if needed. The rate is $1.33 per day.

Further, Kristen was rear-ended two weeks ago now and although she's pretty much fine for the most part (acute neck pain) they did total out her 2000 Hyundai elantra with 142k miles.

The budget for a new ride is roughly 5-6k with the following criteria:

2002 or newer
under 100k miles
over 150 hp
manual trans
2 door coupe or hatch back (could be a 4 door hatch i guess - golf, mazda3)
She's not too fond of domestic brands.

On the list: Civics (si), focus (svt only ) Tiburon GTV6.

Me: I'd like to see her in a Scion TC, but I don't know if they've dropped enough to be in her price range.

Anything else you guys feel we should be taking a longer look at? Cobalts, Fit, idk?

It doesn't meet any of your criteria but...the price is right.

Alright, we'll say Friday December 3rd for a meeting. I'm looking at a place called "London Pickle Works"... Its a few minutes from where Doc lives off of 77 at Wallings Road... I'm thinking this location will keep us away from major retail centers with Holiday shoppers.

I figure its either a nice English style pub, or a homosexual establishment... pickle works...lol

Normal time... between 6 and 7.

No cap at any Mazda dealer in Ohio and autozone does not carry a replacement. Also called salvage yard and closest is PA... Nobody wants to part out just cap. So I'm screwed.

/peaks out from under the rock

what's happening! everyone have a good TG?

Happy BDay Jon! Sorry kinda late on that.

Ouch about the accident Steve. Glad she's doing ok. Ironic that we'd been discussing this and now it's kinda come to a head with the accident.

Not sure about the get together. See what happens but tag me as a Possible. See what happens.

How are the roads on that side of town? Visibility out there has been about 3/4 of a mile all day and the roads are CRAP.
