@Inorganic Hell yeah, quite the silver beauty you've got there!

Mine is an '05, and the attention thing is an adjustment. I've been cut off in traffic and had people flip me off, which is silly given at the end of the day it's a 20-year-old truck!

I do make trips up to the PNW here and there to camp so I'll be sure to reach out if I'm up there. Reach out if you're ever in the Bay Area!

If you haven't already, you may want to check out clubgwagen.com. There's tons of technical DIY knowledge for working on these and a great place to meet fellow owners in your neck of the woods. I know there are quite a few up there.

It’s normal to say to your brain is a peanut, and your brain is in storage.

@SonnyTheElder '05, nice - you have that super charger! Those are fun to drive, and I commend the AMG engineer who thought of putting ~450 hp into a 5,500 lb box, what a legend.

Holler when you're in the PNW. As far as clubwagen, I am active on there too and I see you are too

I already have half a dozen green cars, so diminishing returns and all that

@Bridger fair play. I assume you went for the red one in your next photo instead

Yeah, I figured a red sports car would be unique and differentiate me from the herd

[ManiacLachy]

@tody that must stand out, you're in Cologne, Germany, right?

[tody]

@ManiacLachy yes, it is a rather rare sight over here.

I finally picked up my VW single cab from Poland the other day. Drove it home from Toronto with no issues. I think my kid likes it more than I do!

[tody]

@deanclean I assume this has been restored? condition is absolutely fabulous!

[deanclean]

@tody its in pretty great shape. I wouldn’t say restored, but it’s in great shape for its age. Lots of work done but still a great car to drive and enjoy

@tody The baby blue is that’s not your daily is it???

[tody]

@truby unfortunately, it is not. while all my vintage cars are pretty reliable, they're just not made for traffic jams on my daily commute.
