Thanks from the wife

Here's to all of you that wrote in ,re: driving the turbo. The turbo and I have two things in common. 1) We're both naturally voluptuous creatures and 2) we need to be handled as such. Take that as you may , we are both being driven like little old ladies, not the sizzling hot momma's we are. Suggestions were appreciated. On to the tech talk.

I have got to be more careful about leaving the PP window open when I leave the room! I try to drive "all" my women hard as possible, its just that some are more willing than others, sadly.

Rob,
Your ladies sound like they are both wanting to be driven... "not like old ladies". Maybe it's time to take both on the twists and turns of a new route.

Coming from a lady, ALL ladies want to be driven hard and willing to if new ride routes are explored and the lady is well taken care of. What did I learn from many posts in this forum? "The car was meant to be driven, not sit in the garage. The best thing to do for the Porsche is to drive it!" Heed your own advice, fellas...

No problem, Rob. Your wife seems like a keeper... Sassy. You guys help me with matters of the Porsche, I'll help you guys with matters of the heart. Really quite similar though if taken to the basics. Give her some love when she's broken, make sure you keep up with maintenance, keep her looking pretty with the right accessories, take her out every once in awhile and show her off, and make sure you drive her hard and take her on new driving routes. Don't leave her in the garage! See boys? Elementary.

And Danny boy, why thank you very much for the "epic" compliment. RI? Thank you for the invite and although I love the east coast (lived in Boston for three months), the west coast really wouldn't be the same without Tweez. And besides, I want to be able to drive with the top down all year...

I think the root problem here a communication issue so let me translate it from that "touchie feelie" stuff that they are always talking about into direct and specific action that we as males can actually do something about.

Step one is you will need some supplies. Go out and get the following and then report back in:
- 6 feet of Velcro®
- 1 pair of plyers
- 1 set of 30 weight ball bearings
(remember to preprep with 3-In-1 oil and some gauze pads)


Oh, yeah... Maybe get some chocolate. I have it on good authority that, "Chocolate fixes everything!"

Rob, I love your wife. Just sayin'. We two would probably get along very well... Or cause a lot of trouble! Whenever she wants to hang, I'm game!
