I'm exactly the opposite. I love my a/c. My IS 309 has an awesome air conditioner. I always challenge it to a game of freeze out and it always wins. That's with the thermostat set at 75. I'm not brave enough to turn it down to 60. Pictures of Frosty the Snowman driving an IBP IS 300 would emerge on the Internet.

The MPG game doesn't count when you need to run the A/C. So that won't played this v2.0 meet.

Rob: I'm tired of your damn 'Possibly attending'...

Tell you work to shove it b/c there's a celica meet going on that you MUST attend for fear of the ban stick. wink.gif

Seriously though, I hope you can make it this time.

At least this time we might be able to go hiking. I actually went there about a week after we went for the last meet with my girlfriend, it was a blast. That park is beautiful and the trails are a blast, the best part is going off the trail. We found an awesome spot above one of caverns.

You can see the people standing in the bottom on the right side of the picture. This was kinda sketchy, I was just balancing on that tree overhanging the big opening. This is a spot where you're "not supposed to be"... biggrin.gif

I'd love to see the video of the cruise.

I'm a bit surprised at how slow this thread is. Oh well, more fun for us!

Just calculated my gas mileage again last night (I do every fill up), I hit another high: 37 MPG... I need to hit 40, just once. My old 6 speed I got 39 once... The 37 MPG was with me, my girlfriend, luggage, and a big ass tackle box... Plus I have my two 12" subwoofers in the trunk.

Just think they try and sell cars these days that try to get that MPG.

^^ Sounds good, Joe!

Not sure if anyone keeps up with the "Post a pic of your non-6gc" thread, but basically I traded the dreaded Lexus in for a 350Z. Progress has slowed on the Celica but I'm still doing my best to get her fixed up and one color for the meet.

uh oh, does this mean you're going to slowly leave the 6g world???

Not at all. The Celica is still my first love and far from finished. It still needs work and there's no way I would ever leave it two toned. Plus the BEAMS is too much fun to forget smile.gif

That's how almost everyone advances out of the Celica field, they get a Z. You should have waited a year or two for the new model of the FR-S to come out.

I actually saw one when I bought the Z. Honestly, I just don't care for those cars. They do nothing to excite me. It's nothing against the car or anyone who likes them, but I'm personally not a fan. I'm glad Toyota is making an effort, however.
