After weeks of looking for the right pick up truck, I have finally found it and it now resides at the front of the house. I just purchased a 1998, Chevrolet K1500 Silverado 4x4, Extended cab, Short bed. It has a manual transmission, manual transfer case engagement, manual locks, manual windows, and manual mirrors - less electronic stuff to break, the better. The truck is very clean, free of rust or dents, and it had only one owner. It has approximately 104K miles and it runs great (other than a small power steering incident which we have quickly corrected).

Though the NC DMV are spawns of Satan, we finally get the truck titled and it's now the permanent vehicle for yours truly. A slight change of pace from my previous vehicle.

Oh yeah, welcome to North Carolina!

Just picked up the pictures I took at this year's Detroit Auto Show. I've posted up a few of my favorite ones on Flickr.

Found my first Subaru Legacy Forum. Looking forward to sharing experiences, questions, and ideas with other fellow Subies.

Acura will get performance hybrids - Autoblog - www.autoblog.com
. . . that would be awesome if they offered it in a 6-speed manual.

What will be next? Cars that can raise their suspension 6 inches to be off road vehicles?

It took the death (or sabotage) of Emily to make it happen, but J$ pulled the trigger on Saturday and bought himself a Mazda Miata.

It feels good, doesn't it.
