Re: You know you're an SVX owner when...

A cop pulls you over and suspects you of driving drunk because your 'high beams' are on.

(I was like, Ummm... no they are not. see, look. 'click click') he looks around the front as I switch them back and forth and was speechless.

Or when you go to register your title at the BMV and the girl behind the counter looks at you puzzled and says: "Is this a boat?"

I saw that Tom. Be careful or you'll have the Moderators after you.

I can never understand the fixation with cats on this Forum anyhow. I blame Alan.

I though the exact same thing. I just read this forum, ran out to the driveway and found the 3rd lever. I am so happy. It only took me 2 months to discover this. I could not see the spedo from 30 – 70 and it actually hurt on longer drives.

...and run outside in your sleepwear to make sure it wasn't real...


Correct me if I am wrong here lads, but isn't it spelled 'ALCYONE' not 'ALYCONE'....

Re: You know you're an SVX owner when...

You take photos of the only other one you've seen on the road in 5 years of owning yours

You let your friend drive your other SVX on a club cruise so you can watch it

Or, you modify the rear light bar so that people have not a clue as to WHAT it is!
