You know you have been bitten when.....

[Wild Bill]

Just some newbies thoughts after a month of ownership; you know you've been bitten when:

It is Saturday morning, dirty dishes in sink, laundry needs done, yard needs cut-you get up at 6:00 and apply the required weekly application to 5 coats of Zaino, finish at 3:00-go for a drive and when you come home re-wash and wax

Sunday morning: see above

House payment late-had to have new exhaust system-mortgage holder will have to understand.

The last thing you do before you go to bed is check the weather forecast to see if you can drive her in the morning.

When you go to work the people you work with know you will be grumpy if you couldn't drive her in.

You have practiced how quick you can put the soft top together in case the forecast is wrong.

You have been trying to talk the wife into a new house that is farther away from work so the drive to work will take longer.

You have considered putting your bed in the garage with her so she won't get lonely at night.

All trips are planned to take the longest route possible.

You have considered selling some of your retirement investments to buy modifications.

First thing you check in the morning and last thing you do at night is check this board so you don't miss anything.

I am a newbie as of yesterday. I feel like such a "groupie"...but I love it

You drive around & make mental notes on potential roads while running errands in the other car, like mud & construction sites, to avoid on your Viper drives.

You plan around traffic so you can goose it at will.

Driving around and finding the way with the maximum number of TUNNELS!

Driving around and finding the way with the maximum number of TUNNELS!

Definitely - TUNNELS, Overpasses, etc... They really rock - love to hear the exhaust.......

Here's a few:

Make a turn (in the opposite direction you were actually going) just to chase a vette or something that just might "want to play"

Have a special gas station that's far enough for a good drive yet close enough so as to not run out of gas

Dining based on the quality of the valet - not necessarily the food

Choosing the parking spot in relation to the potential open table at any resturant - just so you can "watch" her

Carrying detail spray and towels in the truck - just in case

Never parking under a tree - shade is cool, but birds love the shade in the summer heat - and birds can do some real damage
