Gratitude...

[seasvx]

I just need to take a moment to say thanks to every member of this board, past and present. Since before we bought the LSi in March of '01, I have had all of you to turn to every time I needed information about anything related to the SVX. Before purchase, research info. Since purchase, dozens of things.

Today, I had the battery on my mind, as it had run down overnight. While it was on the charger at the neighborhood auto shop, I came here to search old posts on the general subject of batteries and, as always, found a bunch of info (not the least of which was "make sure the stereo cover is open before you reconnect the terminals"; look up the post if you want to know why) as well as a link to another site with a bunch more stuff about auto batteries that I didn't know.

A couple of weeks ago, I stood here with my brand new hood lifters in my hand and no idea how to get the ball fittings off the old ones: there was Earl, who had already done this particular repair, with his patented removal / installation method!

Before that, I was shopping for a set of OE wheels and there was Mychailo with a set for sale that he’d taken off his beautiful Laguna Blue, and just a day’s drive away from me as well.

Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks to you all for being here, for being a resource, and thanks to the those that built and those that maintain this board. It’s a touchstone to other owners of this truly fabulous car and I am glad to be one of you.
