Default Boring times.

Hey all,
I don't know about the rest you, but I dislike winter. Cold stinging air, no one wants to do anything, etc. I already miss our little impromptu cruises. I sit nervously waiting for a bodykit. I'll have to wait till spring to even screw with it. I have these nifty door handles to install. I want to redo my airride now and change the stereo system a bit. But it's sooo cold. I have no room to do anything. The reason I come up with this? Too much time to think about the car.
There are no really good threads to read(besides the VIP ones with the cool pics). ScionEvo is almost non existant. I got on some other forums, but they are slow too. BTW, is anyone else on myspace? I have been curious about it for sometime. Anything cool there maybe? I should just move to Cali. They have all the fun times. Cruises, car shows, picnics. ----->Chicago

Yep! Winters do suck around here. My Box has been sitting on my driveway for the past month and I haven't driven it. I'm trying not to get any road salt on it and so far so good. Can't wait till Spring gets here so that I can start "modding" my car for the new car show season...
