  1. Been driving a bit this week, so I just saw this. I looked for 18 months to get mine. And no, I'm not selling. I just broke 99,000 miles today and will break 100,000 by Saturday morning. This has been my favorite car. And I have talked about finding another one and just storing it, for when this one dies.
  2. Thanks OR. Today we rock out Ohio Riders shirts. Heading into Canada. Ay
  3. Day two, Rutland, Vermont to ....... Somewhere around cosco, Maine. It's all a blur now. Had so many points to hit yesterday, which made for constant navigation that span over three states. Damn , we were tired last night. So we picked up my dad and the rally starts. He's just along for the ride, chillin in the back seat. We get the first clue and its kicking our ass. We have had to find a lot of waterfalls this trip. We have a picture of it and no cell signal to search the web. All we know is its in the Green Mountain forest. We decide to head that way and hope to get service along the way and refine the location. Like 15 minutes into us searching and getting frustrated, Dad says, "sounds like your heading to Texas Falls". He then proceeded to give a 10 minute history lesson on how the owner is the only one to ever give 3 Christmas trees to Washington and all kinds of info on the guy. You don't interupt Dad, and we did have the time to drive still, so he went on for a bit. Then he gave us turn by turn directions. Telling us which roads would be washed out from all the rain and which would have too much traffic this time of day. Mind you, these are all rural routes. As we are driving, Dad's in the back saying how he hasn't been out this way in 10+ years, and pointing things out. It was awesome!! Cell service for the day was hit and miss. Navigating and searching needs to be done where you have signal, then drive. Dad can't know them all. We found our points, though we choose not to drive to them all. We really wanted to head to Camp Sunshime and see the kids. Last year we raised money and drove the tires off the car. And that was fun. This year; so we are pulling up the road to the camp and the is a sign staked in the ground that says "Thank you!" We were like, that's cool, they made a sign. Nope, it's more than that. Every 50' or so was a sign staked in the ground. There were over 80 Rally teams, and the kids made signs with all the teams names on them that line the road as far as you could see. I couldn't even talk. It was pretty moving. When we saw our name on the sign we were like little kids ourselves. Then, as we pulled into the camp, the kids could hear rumble of the exhaust through the tree lined road, they all we clapping and cheering as we pulled in. WOW!! It was truly great to be part of helping something like this. There is a selfishness to the rally. You think "I" get to go play in the car for a few days. That was all gone when we pulled in and parked. We saw the kids and met and hung out with them. They were shy, most of them. I wish I had the time to share the details of everything. Summing it up robs it of value and great experance. However, it's time to rally. Day three. http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/dsnowgod/CD6EB09B-18CB-4F00-9BB1-15C0E2F110C9-4521-0000035415A5EBA8_zps36719f46.jpg

  6. ^^Thanks. I grew up in VT, so have been lucky enough to drive the area a bit. The drive yesterday was AWESOME!! The back roads are very fun for a spirited drive. I like to take a route that gets us off the main path everyone else might be taking. Yesterday proved that will get us there, just not in the lead. But, I know we had more fun than most. Last night we picked up my Dad. I can't tell you guys how much I have been looking forward to him riding with us on this. I really don't care about placing in the rally. I got Dad in the car and we are doin a road trip. Today we will be heading from Rutland, VT up to Maine. We will be stopping by Camp Sunshine to see the kids up there, and let them see the cars. Our attire today will be Super Hero t-shirts. I have Superman, my Fiance has Wonder Woman(with cape), and Dad will be rocking Captain America. As much as it will be tough to see these kids, knowing they are so sick, it will be awesome to be part of making them smile. We didn't do many pic's yesterday, but we will work on that today and post some up. Thanks again for the support and following along.

  8. Thanks for the donation Clay!!! Car is fixed! Uninstall software then reinstalled. It linked with the car and reset the code. Maps are good and we have boost!! Leaving Ithica, New York this morning, heading to Rutland, Vermont. No route known yet. We are about to start
  9. Fixed!!! Uninstall and reinstall software on access port. Talked to car, and reset code. Rollin out
  10. So last night the car triggered a fault code. It has done it before with temp change. Given we are up north a bit I thought that might be the issue. Problem is, my Cobb access port that I use to reset the code, won't link with the car now. Basically, the car in in stock setting with no maps and all the lights in the dash flashing. Also, no cruise control. I'm reinstalling the software to the access port now, in hopes this does the trick and allows it to talk to the car, and reset the code. Even if I lose the tune and run the car on stock set up, I'm ok with that. Fingers crossed for today. This is the actual first day of the rally. http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/dsnowgod/86C4D25D-E6A3-4E31-8F35-8D7427886EC0-1839-000001507190A2BD_zps3b784f80.jpg http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/dsnowgod/86FD874D-651F-4516-AF3A-92F12AFF9BEC-1839-000001507ED63E45_zps01153c44.jpg

  12. Ran a few laps on Watkins Glen this evening. The Subie represented quite well. Tomorrow starts the rally, so more pics then, I hope.
  13. Thank you to everyone here for the support. Tomorrow Morning we will be hitting to road. look for pics to come soon.
  14. You met my buddy Pete, you guys are about the same build. It fit him well. Come by and visit tomorrow afternoon. Haven't seen you guys in a while.
  15. All gear in in very good/new condition. AlpineStars Leather Scream Monster Limited Edition Jacket 52 Euro/42 US This jacket was on limited release in the US, with the big difference being, most were not perforated leather. This one is. I was not a big fan of the big green MONSTER logo on the back, and the small ones on the sleeve. They were covered with a paint that dries dull and almost rubber like. I talked to many shops that work with leather before doing this, and they all recommended the same paint. Basically it covers the logo and matches the jacket. Yes, if you look at it enough, you will see it. Jacket has been worn 3 times. In the first pic, on the right, in the shoulder it looks discolored. That is just the pic. $165 http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/dsnowgod/24685ae7-9a5f-48f4-959f-0dbc1614f8e4_zpsd8111fcd.jpg http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/dsnowgod/3ea2dc3a-9d2f-495e-ad07-71545a95f4ee_zps3baac961.jpg http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/dsnowgod/e995f9fd-4219-4fb6-9358-9f91c5533483_zpsf42d5845.jpg New Alpinestar Bionic Air Back Protector Insert Size Large $50 http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/dsnowgod/F8DF8885-3894-439B-BA27-053A57A129EA-3574-000002A4E9621FC9_zpsde1a2380.jpg http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/dsnowgod/5F989010-1E82-4294-B222-B09607947BF4-3574-000002A4D7142637_zps13f20e70.jpg Activesport Jacket Size 44 $50 Jacket has a vest liner in it.
