I must admit that putting the top down or up, while sitting at a...

In case you haven't noticed, it's a worldwide phenomenon and epidemic in our species.

I don't think it's your fault. :)

Grizzly long cut straight.
I'm kind of hippy-redneck?

Sitting on the can (back pocket) never felt comfortable.

Thanks for the well wishes!
I'm enjoying both roadsters.

It's TINY compared to the Z!
Im 6'1", or I was at one time. At 60, I've likely compressed some?

Anyways, I thought getting in and out of the Z was a bit tedious, but it takes planning in the...

Can't get there soon enough!

The black tow hook cover was a prank on the fella I got the car from. The story was funny. So I'll likely be telling it many times.

Supposedly about $132k.
