Post Reading III - New Thread

[SSSVX]

i didn't sleep and i started my journey 530am early in saturday morning reached morgantown, pa at 915am. i was driving in the snow/ice. my svx was the dirties one(full of salt) out there. drove like whole afternoon in the saturday(tired) but really enjoyed the tour and the beautiful views(made me alert). i was the last one to leave(not stay in the hotel) i talked to john & mr.rusty until 2am then i started my journey back. i reached my morgantown on sunday 515pm.(john and your dad, i actually arrived later than you guys) because i drop by hagerstown, also spent some time for rest. it seemed i drove my SVX like 36hrs - non stop. i really enjoyed the ride and quality.

i enjoy meeting with diff diff SVXers and seeing diff diff SVXes.
that's fun. total distant of 739.4miles w/ 30.6 gallons of premium gas. avg mpg:24.16 that's pretty cool. my record of our total tour is 146.7miles. on the way there, i got 26mpg. on the way back, i got 26.12mpg w/ the spd of 75-80mph. auto a/c:71F. up and down at I70 and I68. i was pretty satisfied. a tank of gas: mixed w/ 75% of country roads: i got as low as 21.72mpg. conclusion: my SVX is definitely normal. driving mileage is really variable on the driving conditions. in my morgantown city drive: i only got 12-14mpg always.

however, i'm too talkative for my reports. but, good to seeing everybody there and have fun in my very first svx meet.

now, i also want to learn a little like Randy... of course, i can't remember as well as him and didn't get to see all people...at least i know i didn't richard_51.

randy - of cos good to see you. but i don't know what to say...how come you're late back from your car wash and didn't do the headlight cleanings demo but my headlights are so clean now

larry - thanks larry for your tour. finally to see you how you look like. you're actually like what i thought. i wish we could stop by at the country rd side took some great pics.

dough - good to see you. you are tall. sigh didn't get to see your car and the mileage....hehe

lwin - congrat on your penguin. i'm waiting for the pics(related to my starting) you said you would post...

zeppelin - are you going to fix your rust? thanks for taking the last picture for me beside the svx board. i am excited to see how it comes out....

never2phat - it'll be better if you've a new headlight on the left... i remember your plate...don't drive too fast...

nubsjr - why did you always clean your car by your duster...almost every time you stopped...

SvXit - you came late... i guess i was the new face to you.. was that your old plate that you put on rear dashboard?

montypython - i know your car. i was at the back of you...for the last bridge... i was talking to you and your wife..do you remember me?

lambomanpa - you and your wife were sitting beside me while having buffet?? your '96 has a newer headlight on the right... hee..

kelli - i said hi to you. do you remember me? you got your antenna fixed?

ravi - you and your bro look alike...hope you fix your 'stop lamp' soon...

also, nice to see all the other 3 west virginia SVXes, i remember your plates and colors... and any any other...i believe i can recognise your faces...but may not be sure for the names..

Kelli,

Hope you enjoyed the engagement party. Gary (MoreIBNR) had a good idea. He wants to have another West Point (NY) SVX Meet.
I agree. I think we should deck out our cars in red, white and blue and tour the Hudson Valley. Routes 9E & 9W are quite scenic in that area.

I think we could get the NY, NJ, PA, Conn, DE (me) & MD SVXers to come.

There was also some discussion of an Atlantic City SVX Meet. Maybe Aredubjay can bring his fuzzy dice?

sounds like a good idea to me...... just let me know...

NO FUZZY DICE

bad randy!bad!

Hi everyone,

I would like to say that I enjoyed seeing everyone. I have never met an SVX'er that I did not enjoy talking to. It is great to put faces with the names that I see here everyday. I hope everyone had a good time, even if we all got lost a few times on the drive.
See everyone in July.

never2phat - it'll be better if you've a new headlight on the left...

Just as the body shop and my own insurance people said I should have just whacked the other mirror to have it replaced also. I would never do such a thing<cough cough driver side mirror cough cough center grill cough> I didn't want to end up having them total my SVX. Oh well maybe in the future someone will vandalize that headlight <fingers crossed>

i remember your plate...

As for my plate.........I remember my old one. ATG 3957. I had it since I started driving *way* back in 1991. Geez, have I been driving for more than ten years? Doesn't feel like it. My new plate starts with EML but I still have no idea what the trailing four numbers are. I think there is a 5 or a 6 in it I'll remember it one of these days

don't drive too fast...

Me speed? Never

gotta go and email a new friend that I hope is around for a long time(you know who you are)

Look, I explained the fuzzy dice. 1) Sentimental value: I won them at Autofest 2001. 2) My daughter likes them so I keep them there for her. Besides, they're easily removed. Not like some goshawful vinyl wart across my windshield, or anything like that.

We stopped along the way at a Target to get a rear liscense plate cover like Maria's (blow through many tollbooths with that liscense cover on Maria?) and we were on our way back... except Lwin's car was dead.

OK, ok. The cover didn't age well, what can I say!! I DO HAVE EASY PASS!!!!! For 3 different states! Thank you very much!

Well, if you all take a look at this month's "Drive" magazine, they are Calling All Clubs. I quote:

"If your Subaru-based club would like to appear in "Club News,"drop us a line! We're always interested in showcasing clubs that offer a variety of events for Subaru enthusiasts."

Think they want us?

I'm gone for 10 days, everyone(I CAN'T WAIT!!)! You all take good care, and do NOT blow through any toll booths!!

Maria!

Transmission Update:

After being without my baby for 5 days and having to endure the pain of a Saturn rental car, I found out what happened to her. It seems the forward clutch gears went. That was second hand from my wife after she talked to service so I appologize if the lingo isn't correct. Total cost: Approx $2,100. My cost: $100. For those keeping track the $1200 or so I spent on the warranty plus $300 for 4 service calls (Becker picked up the $100 for the one in which they had the car for 3 weeks) I have been spared $4358 in warranty repairs. Not too bad. Hope to get her back by Tuesday or Wednesday. Thanks to everyone who wished us luck. And I'm thankful everyone didn't get to see her dragged up onto the flatbed!

Firestone Guy: "Hey george, the ocean called, they're running out of shrimp!"

George: "Oh yeah, well the jerk store called, and they're running out of you!!!"

Firestone Guy: "It doesnt matter, you're their all time best seller!"

George: "OH YEAH, WELL I HAD SEX WITH YOUR WIFE!"

Other Firestone Guy: "His wife is in a coma"
