Just had some ask me if the vx was "one of them cars that ran on electricity"

Open the hood and show them the battery.

I've gotten that question more than once. They seem to be awfully surprised when it isn't. I usually follow it up with "...and its a decade old."

I would have simply answered "yes, and it tops out at 198mph" and walked away.:)

Hahah - I have been asked if mine was amphibious, and it was a genuine question.


But it was from a female.



OOOOPs - where is that fire proof suit when I need it.

It is. Its a cross between a Trooper, a Rodeo, and some Isuzu engineer's imagination.

I would rather have them ask if its a hybrid than wave me down at a stoplight, pat around my B pillar looking for the door handle before I finally roll down and tell them I'm not a taxi.

Hah! I know exactly where in Beaufort that was taken. I was stuck there for 4 years.

At least you could easily visit Auldbrass...
