    don't go gettin' soft on us, Mike, you have a reputation to uphold!

    but yeah, she is. It's been three days and she's in complete control of the relationship.

    For sure. My dogs log a LOT of road miles. Brodie hit every state East of the Mississippi except AL and LA. He was an epic traveler. (Tacoma content: fold flat AC passenger seat)

    I'm a big fan of the hatchback. I've had several. 79 Celica GT...what a blast. 86 Subaru GL 3 door, old school Stanza, Scion TC, a couple of Mazda 3's. Back seat down, decent stereo. Just a great way to get around with decent mileage and carry a bunch o' shit. Put a yakima on the roof, and you can do some serious damage. Now that I think about it, probably a big part of why both of my kids are driving Imprezas.

    I'd do a Corolla XSE in a heartbeat. I think part of it is a New England thing. The roads make it a blast to own a car like that. Out here in the midwest, flat roads and straight lines, sitting up high and knowing you'll survive falling asleep from boredom makes trucks the only way to go, people see little appeal in smaller cars. I'd get shit all the time pulling up in a 3, "hey, hows your teenage brother getting to work since you have his car". They just don't get it.

    Afternoon y’all.
    Just got back from our mid season bowling roll off.
    Happy to say I’m starting to feel a little like I use to at some points in the game so I think there is hope for me yet. I managed to win the event….
    Still a long way to go but I don’t feel like an idiot.

    Have a great afternoon all…

    Now there's an idea for the next Tacomaholics anonymous meeting. Donuts and bowling! We can test out @FlyingWolfe's bionic shoulder :rofl:
