Default Hi all!

Well I've been checking out this forum the past few days. I know these kind of places can be a great resource as I am a memebr of another forum for my bike. http://www.lcriders.com/

Well 1 week ago today I layed my bike down going to a bike show & rally here. The dumbass I avoided hitting was sitting in a blind curve in the middle of the road and I layed my bike down trying to avoid hitting them. Well a little road rash and a $6K check from my insurance company latter and my bike is in the shop getting repaired. To top it off my wife wrecked HER P.o.s. Ford Escort on tuesday. Escort vs. F250 4x4 the escort loses everytime. Well Insurance wrote her a check for her car and she has no scratches or bruises luckily. To make her feel better I took her shopping for a new car. I always hated her her Escort & now we have Ordered a Cao Green xB with the 7 spoke wheels, the Cd changer, a cargo net, foglights and the buper protector. It was on the dock in japan when we ordered it and it should be here in 2 weeks! We can't wait. Neither of us have had a new car. (I've had a new bike before though) We will actually be saving on insurance even with the accident because this car is rated so high! We love the styling and exspecially the space!

Congrats to you both but when they say 2 weeks don't get your hopes up. They told me, "It will be in by the end of the week." A month later I went somewhere else and got a different color because it still wasn't in.

Best of luck!
Happy xBing

Congrats on the purchase and sorry to here about the string of bad luck with vehicles! The purchase of the bB should turn the frown upside down though. :D
