Default the official kekai poking thread

We all know that Kekai has been without his car for a few. So I'm proposing a reminder thread for him. This thread will be for folks to tell them what they did with their xB's today or yesterday (one that they actually have in their driveway).


Please keep things sensative and nice, so he can remember what it was like to actually have one of these cars sitting in his driveway. Ya know, being able to look out the window and see the car that you own.

I'll start...

Yesterday I washed my car (all shiney and stuff), polished my wheels and wiped down my door jambs (gotta do that with a white xB, otherwise washing it is a waste of time).

I headed down to Eugene, the back route (ya the one with all the bugs that appear to want to kiss your windshield). I drove "my xB" about 5 mph below the speed limit, so I could get a good following of other cars (it's really the only time I feel like a leader).

Anyways I drove "my xB" to couple stereo shops to look at amps and other non-essential/soon to be essential items, went to eat and headed home.

Anyways, I'll end by saying, it's good to have an xB, isn't it..lol...

So, I think just keeping it to xB's is a little unfair. I purpose that we open it to all cars. We are all friends right.

KaKia,

If you had your car you can have fun with your neighbor 's cats like I do with my tC.

The neighbor's cat likes to come place his bum on my hood and enjoy the heat from the engine. Well, I like to play a game called scare the ____ out of the cat with the car alarm.

My xB, Vanilla, is sitting patiently in the carport, waiting for me to take her shopping for the last few remaining parts I need to get so I can put some of those spare switch positions to use.

I showed my xB off to people who were curious about my car. I also had to tell someone, again, that it wasn't a hybrid.

*sigh* Every self respecting message board in the world has that poking icon. We surely are missing the basics here.

I went to Lincoln Square today (across from Bellevue Square Mall) and was returning to my car when I encountered a very very ritzy eastside woman getting out her BMW. I unlocked my car door and she said with a huge smile "I really like your car"

I was like SCORE! a 50 something year old woman who has some major bling on her ears and very nicely dressed loves my car. I thought it was pretty neat to have some eastside bmw woman driver compliment my car.
