When I mentioned to my wife that I would soon be a dork, she simply raised an eyebrow and said "soon?".

So I guess people who know me have been aware of this fact for quite some time, and now my post-count confirms what my spouse already knew.

I'd like to thank the hotlinks thread, without you - hotlinks thread - I would just be a "reader". Thank you, thank you, thank you.

But how does one truly mark a momentous rite-of-passage such as this? How might one display for the world to see at just a glance, that they are not dealing with an Average Everyday Fool?

By purchasing a car like no other in town, that's how. So I went down to the dealer and I ordered the Antartic Blue Super Sports Wagon with the C.B. and optional rally fun pack.

There was a little mix up at the dealer I guess, as I this is what I now own:

Many thanks to JTw8

Good score! I wished I could have found a way to get that one back to IL for myself.

you can also add it to your email signature. It carries more importance so it needs to go in front of your title and other credentials, like MBA or whatever. For example:

Was that a reference to the Family Truckster in NatLamp's Vacation?

I loved your cars & coffee hotlinks!

Dr.Boost is an honest to Enzo non-hotlinker. Wow! My bad, I didn't know it was possible to resist the hotlink temptation. You are a special kind of post-whore, and for that:

So what's your wife gonna raise when you're a Mega or Ultra Dork?

Tell her it's part of the ritual ......

If ever I need to part with this car, decorum would suggest it would go to a GRMer.

But it WAS available for over a year....

Honey just swallowed 6 mounted wheels/tires and will soon go to drop them off for storage, and will then meet the kayak she was bought to carry.

I'm pretty sure buying this was a better decision than becoming a Laforza owner!
