SVXs out in full force today.

The weather here was unseasonably nice today, and I saw 5 SVXs on the road while driving around. I'm happy to see that there are still some going around here.

That is all.

I usually consider 3-4 "full force".

5, man, planets must have been aligned in your favor.

Re: SVXs out in full force today.

I never see any ever in my little town in Wyoming. I did see one a coupla weeks ago in an even smaller town in Montana, though.

I think a population density map of the world showing a dot for every SVX would be cool.

Depending on the registration data that Earl has acquired, it might be possible to get something close to that. I'm not sure if he has locations for them all or not.

There are a lot in Pennsylvania. Never seen 5 in one day but sightings have become pretty common.

Re: SVXs out in full force today.

If you include my own car I've only ever seen 2 at a time. Except at Reading.

Re: SVXs out in full force today.

Tomorrow I get to see close to a dozen at once in various stages of repair in Bozeman, Montana, where mine is now ready to be picked up from its 5mt swap. I hope to post pics within a few days.

Re: SVXs out in full force today.

Crazy. I don't think I've seen 5 SVX's on the road in my whole adult life. Seriously. I remember about 15 years ago there was one in my neighborhood.

I went through a local car wash and the attendant told me he sees a red one w/manual trans regularly, but I've never seen it around...

Re: SVXs out in full force today.
