It's only impossible to convince me because ive driven all of the above and you can definitely feel that extra weight. Its not like it's 100lbs. Its 700+ and THAT is my only gripe. I would do anything for the nicer headliner, too. Its just a completely different type of car and geared towards an entirely different market.

Night before I didn't really sleep, so I decided to have an early night. My travel aged sucks, I can honestly say that dont use wah as I did. Anyway, seeing a hotel like that made me drive trough the night, except when I took almost an hour break at a truck stop. I ate (chocolate), had a bottle of water, and ran around the place for a while, till the first local woke up. I usually have no self preservation, but let's just say I did not like the look of that man at 3am, and instead of trying to prove my perception wrong, I ran away. Anyway, Yellowstone was reached at fiveish, and I slept in the car for two hours, and now I'm trying to eat, but can't because these people don't hold onto their forks. I'll do a whole write up later when I have wlan, but I haven't had this much fun in years, and I can indeed recommend my way of doing stupid shit to everyone |

I was wondering how come the hornet doesn't come with a hotspot. Then I saw the rest of this thread and the disaster that took place...

I have two more weeks now to go crazy, I'm now in Wyoming and by far this is the most beautiful place I have had the honor of seeing. I think I'll stay for a few more hours and take more photos. http://m4trip.blogspot.com/ It will end up there. |

Just for the record, I was the one that posted the Prius picture for you, (see http://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho...2#post16333352) but if you want to come to Austin to shoot someone, then please shoot Spy

Lups' travel blog is hilarious, as expected.
I am happy I stuck with my local dealer instead of opting into the SoCal crazy zone. f that. I just committed to a conference in Helsinki. In March. And I was in Brazil at the time. They have a neuron killer more serious than vodka. Out at a dance club until 5AM, then jumped in the ocean for one last thrill bodysurfing before catching shuttle to airport and 30 hours of air travel... I love waves!!!

If you go to Helsinki then, remind me beforehand. I'll gather you all the good tips where to get drunk and even get you the pointers on where to go see stuff. I'm still dying. This is going well.

Mountains in CO rock. Too many people in Aug though. Lots of great hikes if your head is OK. Altitude sickness sucks.

Cheers Doc, I gotta say it's the best manual I've ever driven. It feels like coming up for air after living in Seattle for months. Yeah, sorry about that, I promised people here to blog the AD when the time is, so I kind of had to write it. It's also a list for me of all the stupid stuff I happen to do while in traffic, and an really old friend of mine happened to be reading this forum while I was in Denver, and got in contact after 15 years. Apparently I never grew up, since it's still easy to spot who's behind this nick. Thanks myz, I came from a spin just now, and for the first drive while awake, I have to say the car was worth all the bloody trouble it got me. I'm in heaven. Dude, we are way too old to party. Necks get craps.

The thing is, if I name him well it would be boring. We all have an uncle named Peter (in some form), so my naming this to that will make every one else family gatherings more fun!
Yes, the name needs work. I will never ever name anything I like again. For an hour. Till then I'm happy to tell you Peter II the Hornet (see, I can extend it) is liking me. We both like the same poison; speed.
