I hear you when you talk about the rules, I went to 5% in the back 3 with a strip of the same across the front as CA depending on the time of the year can get ticket happy. With the FOG we have I didn't really want anything on the front two so that helped also,
Hubby and I are planning to skip out of work on Tuesday and motor a few hours away to the beach. This will be Roxxy's first road trip. I hope to have a happy story to share next week!
I will certainly take some pics and attempt some form of diary. I'm very much looking forward to getting her out on the open road after 600+ miles of city driving. Gainesville isn't much of a city, but it's still stop and go between the house and work.
Happy road trip yesterday to Philadelphia suburbs and back.
Going up, a fellow HzB MCCS joined along side me for a bit and we motored together side by side up I-95 in NE Maryland. Gave each other an enthusiastic thumbs up and he peeled off for the exit. Too cool.
Came back via PA turnpike and down 15. Rough road on the turnpike until Lebanon exit then opened it up on the smoother road. Felt good to break the 4,000 RPM barrier associated with the 1200 mile break-in recommendations. Great trip, decent motoring. Was crunched for time so I had to save the back-roads for another time. But, I even got paid to do the drive by a client. Life is good....getting paid to drive my mini.
"that looks great. I am going to go get mine tomorrow. 11 weeks wait from the factory, what happened to the 6 to 8 week wait they told me about?"
11 weeks seems a bit long. I'd question your SA about damage during transit. Especially if others in the same boat, pun intended, have already taken delivery of theirs.
Glad to see this thread is still going strong!! Thanks to all the Happy Motors out there!!
Mini Cooper Mini-Yeah I saw you said your delivery is tomorrow!! I am sure the wait has been hard , but it will be so worth it!! You are going to be very busy installing all those mods you have been buying during your wait!!
Please post us pictures!! Also you will have to do some before and after pics with all those mods!! Can't wait to see!!
ok, it now has 149 miles on it, i put on every MOD that i had purchased and i ran out of light to take pictures. I will post pictures up tomorrow of before and after, as there is a huge difference between the two.
That is overlooking the Strait of Gibraltar from the Spanish side. Thats Morocco on the other side (in the first pic). Also check out my new blacked out beltline...
