Picked up my orphan yesterday!

My res# is 1486, so last week I called Josh in Sarasota and told him to put me on the list for a Cabrio. He called yesterday with a Blue/Black one and guess what I drove home in last night? I am having so much fun with it! The hardest part is having to let my friends drive it (one lap around the parking lot is all they get!). Maybe I should charging!

Josh and Jim were so easy to deal with!

Thanks! I already had a great day today with it. Found all sorts of excuses for errands that "needed" to be run!

Siesta: I don't even have mine yet, but I worked it out with people I work with. I will let each of them put their names in a fish bowl for a RIDE ONLY. The cost? One free lunch for me!

Congratulations! Looks like we've got another one in greater TampaBay.

SiestaSmart, we have the same colored smart. Enjoy and be careful with those guest driver rides. I haven't let anyone drive my baby but I might let my daughter. Have a great weekend and get some more gas. You're going to need it. Damn, I wish I was in Sunny FL. It was 18 degrees this morning in Jersey! Regina

Ours is here for all to enjoy and drive. My wife and daughter have been out driving it whenever they want ( actually my wife was disappointed I was taking to work today) and we take the dog in it as well-she ( the dog, not the wife) fits perfectly in the back area and the dog hair seems mostly contained back there. The car is filthy with salt encrustation from driving in all sorts of weather and the mats are pretty dirty at this point. It's black/black/red so hopeless to keep in clean this time of year. Still, it gets plenty of looks. BTW it was 11 this morning in Mass and more snow is coming tonight.

Gas? We need to put gas in it? I have 100 miles on it so far, so not even down to 1/2 tank! I guess I'll figure that out this weekend! I did get my ipod hooked up today though (had to run out and buy the cable) - now I even have my tunes! What more do I need?!
