Good morning, guys!

Morning Markus

Good morning, Doc, Rick.

The forecast for my area is a potential "major event winter storm" for Thursday. I am doing my best anti-snow dance. I hate snow. If I want to see snow I will drive up to the mountains where it belongs. At least it should be snow and not ice.

so Rick, what's holding you back from going to Hawai?
or are you more afraid of the little one , then you are afraid of yer misses?

Morning boys... I crashed out on the couch and totally missed the festivus....



We are in snow prep mode around here.... Got firewood moved yesterday. Today we will make sure the big uber badass 4wds are plugged in and the 4wd tractor with a front end loader is ready to roll.... I get the feeling I will be doing drive clearing duties....

Money and you are damned right

It is a VERY long flight. Money is one thing but the pain of getting there is bad.

So why don't you send the misses over, as an x-mas present.

She doesn't have to know you do just to be free for a few days/weeks...
Peace of Mind, a week or 2 of no fear whatsoever, sure , it might cost you a bit...



but maybe we can chip in for you, so you stop whining so much on our end.. :D

Stijn, I am waaaaaaaaaaaaay ahead of ya. :)

Ruh Roh boys.... I fear the blower on the VW has self destructed again.... Time for a call to Kompressor Kanada to ask WTF happened to the grand I sent them....

It was hooked to the parking brake cable.:D

Damn you rick...



Seriously... I'm sorting this out and then the VW goes up for sale.... I need something more reliable... AKA another 944.... Parts for it are cheaper too... Sans the clutch of course...

I honestly detest any VAG products. I refuse to work on them. I have the credentials and refuse to use them.

I love driving the damn thing. Its great. I really wouldn't mind a GTI or something more normal... This thing parts that cause issues... Too many things that were specific to a G60....

VAG? wassat?

Volkswagen Auto Group

The young one is correct

don't they own or control about 11 car companies now, including porsche?

Pretty much....
