The unexpected surprise included with my SVX....

[Knightwulf]

As stated in my "We're home!" thread (http://www.subaru-svx.net/forum/show...threadid=22213)

My new SVX came with something I wasn't quite expecting... Was driving through Iowa in the middle of the night and hit my elbow on something sharp on the side of the armrest...

I looked down and saw a switch...

Being the tech geek that I am.. It immediately flashed through my head... "MUST... PUSH... BUTTON!!"

Sooo.. Knowing the car had an ECUTune system and not knowing what it would do if I switched it on/off whilst in motion or even if this switch controlled the ECUtune (Turns out that the switch was never installed...)... We pulled over and flipped the switch... A green LED lit up inside and I didn't notice anything immediately different.. Until I looked out my window... ...and saw this...

(Now, most of you know I'm totally anti-Rice, but I'm very much pro-techie toys and well.. We techs are easily amused by anything that lights up... Soo.. I think I might be keeping them.. )

(Pict's a bit shaky because I was cold and tired at the time.. )



...and a couple more from our trip...


Proud new owner.. (Ghods, I look fat in that one.. )


Those gorgeous CO mountains.... )


Breakfast on the first day out...


A beautiful pict of a sculpture taken by Alicia at the rest stop on the Colorado/Nebraska border.

Those are awesome pictures 'Wulf!! How very cool!

I have just one question: when you do move to Colorado are you going to become a stuck-up front-ranger and ignore us over here on the good side of the hill?

Thanks, 'Chelle...

...and most assuredly not.. I'm sure Alicia and I would love to meet another couple who share the same lifestyle we do..

Steve put NERONS on his car?



Personally, I like em, but I'm a bit biased..

Nice surprise. LOL

[Knightwulf]

Man... This just keeps getting better and better.. I swear.. Every time I go out to the car, I find some new little tidbit...

I was going through the glove box, looking for my insurance information and noticed a little organizer thing that I hadn't before...

Lo and behold.. In it was a MagLite, a tire pressure gauge, a comb... ( )... ...and this:



That brings the total up to:

1 Carcoon car cover.
1 set of green neon 'street glow'
1 complete set of '92 service manuals
1 '92 owners manual
1 SVX DVD
1 SVX '04 calendar
1 issue of Sports Cars Int'l with the "Top 10 Sports Cars of the 90's" (featuring the SVX)
1 box of various spare parts
1 2x2 painted with the words "Hood Prop"
1 gargantuan 3 ring binder with a TON of information garnered from various SVX sites, service receipts and the ECUtune instructions...
