No More a Minivan Man

Postby AIM WO4 » Sun Jul 01, 2012 9:14

I did a lot of shopping to replace the Mazda5. The kids are bigger, and we have an Explorer for the family needs. Daddy needs fun!

The Speed3 would have been nice to have... As much as I liked some of the non-Japanese assembled cars, I had to stick with one built in Japan.

I'll see what I have to part with per Mazda parts...

In before Moose chimes in...

Wow, congrats AIM! You can now join the ranks of 'non-mazda-owning' members.

Great looking car.

If it is, I demand to see it before I leave for college in August!

Nice new ride :)

No, that's a Triumph.

Congrats on the new ride...I was looking forward to a Speed-converted Mazda5, though.

yikes, how did I miss this?!

Epic choice.

things to consider with your new Evo:
Your skin on your face no longer staying in position during a corner. This is Normal
V8 MPG. Normal
Being able to do 80MPH through a foot of snow. Normal
Having snow go over your hood, windshield and roof... and still moving... Normal
Grunting noise while doing 0-60 launches. Normal

Having little kids go "Whoa dad, look at that white car, itz cool". Also Normal.
