Because 4Runners, for whatever reason, have just never really done it for me. I recognize that they are good looking, reliable, and capable vehicles, but every fiber of my being responds with “meh.”

Now, start talking about LandCruisers or the LX and that’s a horse of a different color!

As much as I hate to say it, he’s right. A 4Runner or a used Lexus LX is what she’s gonna want.

“Nice use of profanity, too.”

Aww, did I offend your delicate sensibilities? I was under the impression that I was speaking to an adult. 

Custom convertibles from the 90's are bad news. The spyder wasn’t a factory convertible, Mitsubishi commissioned a 3rd party company to make them after chopping up the normal cars. Them’s the kind of problems I don’t want. If I’m going to spend that much money fucking with fiddly bits that want to go wrong, I’ll just…

I hit Scottsboro pretty regularly, I’ve got a cabin up that way close to my hunting camp, and you can still get some good deals at Unclaimed Baggage.

I’ve considered picking up a ‘99 VR-4 just for the memories, but came to the conclusion that I want something with a targa or convertible top as my weekend cruiser. There will always be a part of me that will love those cars (except the ones in that godawful pastel bananas and cream yellow color, those are an…

That supra you saw probably didn’t even hit the juice, it just waited on the boost to kick in.

I’m glad I got to live there, but I don’t miss it at all, aside from being able to walk around outside with a drink.

Damn right!

Not too far from Huntsville. Don’t want to disclose anything more specific because, ya know, possible doxxing and stuff.

Where I’m from is further south than Mentone, but still NE Alabama. I typically took a route that went through Cave Springs, Ga (which is, incidentally, where we bought the 3000GT from) then down to Atlanta and onwards.

And, even without cell phone cameras, let’s just say I could never run for congress...

Hell, if I had that Supra, I’d still be hanging on to it and watching values for well kept examples rise. It was a very fun car. I still remember the time were were following a friend in an S2000 coming back from the ass-end of Abercorn on the interstate. We crested a hill doing around 110, saw two cop cars at the…

I think I went to meet-up’s at MediaPlay, I don’t remember there being a Nopi there.

I grew up in a small town in Alabama (about 13k people), went to high school in Birmingham, Alabama, and traveled pretty extensively when I was younger. I grew up going to school and playing, and later working and living, side by side with people of various races and ethnicities.

I’m 36 years old now and, to this day,…

He/she real jealous.

You’re obviously just jealous, but I wasn’t even high on the scale of people that had nice shit there. One of my friends graduated high school and got in to SCAD. He dad was going to buy her an Aston Martin and she said “Daddy, if I go to school in a $180,000 car everyone will hate me.”

So he bought her a Jag XK, black…

St. Paddy’s Day Week is pretty epic. There was one bar owner on West Congress Street that didn’t want to deal with the drunken stupidity, so she’d shut her bar down to everyone but regulars and put out cots. If you were a regular, you could come in and nap off some of your drunk before going back out to party, all…

My major was computer art 3-d animation. When I went in for it, I could have graduated in the middle of my class and come out making 75k. by the time I graduated, the job market was saturated. Took my art degree, waited tables in fine dining restaurants while swilling fine wine, beer, and liquor, and eventually went…

I was there from fall of ‘99 until the summer of ‘04. I graduated the summer of ‘03, but stuck around to manage the store that I worked at. It was a glorious time to be alive!

We held street races over at the abandoned track on Hutchinson Island (for anyone that doesn’t know, it’s right across the river from the river…
