I seem to have just bought the first BRZ spider.

In that, there's a family of spiders living in the driver's side strut / wheel well! Egg sack included.

That black one was indeed a black widow, the camera doesn't make it out very well but it had the red marker on the back and everything. Gotta love living in AZ.

I took the hose with the spray nozzle to the thing, and the webs and egg sack would not come completely down. I ended up grabbing a long bread-knife and just wrapping it up in all of the webbing and pulled it all out that way, some strong poo poo. I just pulled in from work not 2 hours prior, so either they've been in there a while, or they spun up a ton of webbing in a hurry.

edit: Bastard came back. This time the trusty Dyson vacuum took care of him.

I had a rented one and was trying to park it in a parking garage in Boston which had the sharpest loving corners to go up and down between decks and I had to INCH that thing around the corners. You can land a 747 on that hood.

When I owned my Fit, I once rented a Charger when on vacation. I got it stuck in the rentalship garage on the way out.

Traded in the poo poo Porsche Cayman and got a thing:

I like it so far. Somehow getting 22 mpg, but it's been entirely highway. It's a 2012 with 18,000 miles on it. That speaks to mostly highway miles in the history too, and I'm totally OK with that. I love letting other people eat the depreciation, they had to be $15k upside-down on this if they didn't pay half as a down payment.

Did you get double the chest hair when you got it home.

My 2011 Ford Taurus ended up getting totaled...I bought this today. Picking it up next week - pretty excited. It handles a HECK of a lot better than the Taurus, that's for sure.

It's a 2013 Ford Fusion Titanium with pretty much every option box checked off (nav, adaptive cruise, parallel park assist which I'll try out once and never use again) with 3100 miles. Negotiated the price to $24.5k.

The 2.0 Ecoboost isn't ridiculously fast or anything but the thing can get out of it's own way when necessary at least. It has MyFord Touch which I'm sure will be a PITA, but for the money this car is pretty nice.

There's a new Blackberry based MFT (or whatever they're calling it) on the way; hopefully it's something that can be updated to your car too.

That looks fantastic. I work at a local Ford dealership and we can't keep the 15 Mustangs on the lot at all. Other than one Performance Orange one we can't get rid of. They're pretty well priced too. Grats on the purchase, you'll love it.

Outrageous, Performance Orange is a baller colour.

Do the needful.

Considering how much of the 6.2 they re-engineered; the 6.2 either has crazy overhead left in it, or there will be some exploding Scat Packs. :v:

I've lost count as to how many times I've had to dig it out this year. Our parking lot has gone from 12 spaces to about 5, there is literally nowhere left to put the snow this year.

My CTS-V Wagon has had a steady diet of premium fuel and tires since I got it in 2011. Needs a new front "splitter" thing - an errant bit of truck tire cracked one side. Other than that, I'm waiting for the new '16 models to consider a change. I did see an AMG wagon the other day, which is about the only other option. Decisions!

There's an E63 wagon for sale around here that is mighty tempting at times, but I'm scared about post-warranty costs (it's a 2012) :ohdear:

I'd love to see them get one of Powershift's cars all the way to Mexico. As far as I'm concerned, if they can do it, they already like the truck more than he does.

When I say 'disorganized' I mean it. I'm talking about junkies and small-time crooks who need a ride to get around, not to sell. They steal the truck, steal someone else's plate to stick on it and roll around until caught.
