Default God, I love living in New England (not).

Today was cold...about 30 degrees (F) at the warmest point of the day, but it has been at least 3 weeks since the S car has seen the light of day. At least it was dry. I couldn't resist; even the Coupe is grounded for some brake issues and the A6 Avant (C5) is sooo boring. It was a good day to blow some of the cobwebs out out of the Stromung. God, I love this car - words fail me. As I told the guys at the shop - it was time to "re-establish the S car's dominance over Route 2."

Well, Route 2 was proven to be no obstacle. In fact, there were no obstacles at all...save one. The only obstacle was the damn pothole in East Hartford. Damn. I was only going about 35 MPH. I put 20 miles on the S car today and now I need a new Toyo Proxie. Damn. Back in the garage it goes. Damn.

Well AZ is nice right now, but the S doesn't like the dry climate.

Default Head North -

Its colder up here and there are more potholes!

Tom, if you want to go through the hassle, CT has a reimbursment process for Wheels and suspension, I hit one like that going to Foxwoods, never spent the time to try to get a new wheel though.

Default Re: Yep, roads here really bite the big one.

The only thing worse than the roads here are the drivers. I'm from CA - there, all we have to watch out for are road rage shootings!

I live in Weston, CT. What I really like is when two people stop to chat in the middle of the road - blocking lanes in both directions. They think it's odd when you ask them to pull off the road if they want to continue their conversation . . . .
