Hello all.  Maybe some of you remember me from a couple years ago.  My name
was RioRedGTS.  Remember it had gotten burned down by a jeep that caught
fire by my car?  Then I got the replacement 95 GT and that too was stolen 2
months later.  Any of you remember that?  Well, then got it fixed and sold
November 03.

Anyhow, I was starting to miss the sn95 so I had to jump onto a 98 Cobra,
white on tan.  Got it with 52k with only 3.73 and k&n as the only mods.  I'm
loving every second of car car.  As a precaution, I already had an alarm
installed on it last weekend..I still have memories of my other missing from
its parking spot.  Don't want the same to happen here.

I was driving a Buick wagon with an LT1 engine..that thing would haul.  But
it started to give tranny problems and I didn't want to deal with that, so I
sold it.  Also got tired of these dumb kids around here taking their b-body
cars (the wagon, caprices, roadmasters, etc) and raising them like a truck
and putting giant 26" rims on them.  Then drove a 99 Dodge Ram for a few
months...got tired of it and its 12mpg mileage.  I couldn't pass a turd with
it when I tried.  I'm going to sell that soon too.

I'm pretty sure I remember you. Wasn't your bad luck happening from an
apartment parking lot?
Welcome back and congrats on the Cobra.
I'm glad I have not seen any of those big wheel things out west yet.
WTH are those things about?

Yes, both occassions it happened in my apt complex.  If you go there, you
woundn't expect these things to happen.  It was a decent area.  It was still
ungated though.

Yes....the b-body cars with giant rims.....  it's becoming a trend now...
remember the 13" gold wire rims on old hoopties?  Now it's 28" on
caprices/roadmasters....  I started having real doubts about keeping the
wagon.  You'll start seeing this trend soon enough....

I remember YOU!
Hey kid! How ya doin!
Good to see that you have another SN95. You may note by my sig, I traded
mine off.
Had to have a change, having driven the same type of vehicle for nearly 10
years it was getting stale.

Hubs and I are thinking of finding an older model and having fun with it.

Thanks!  I'm doing good.  There was just nothing else I wanted right now...
I wanted to get an 05 GTO or 06 Magnum RT , but they are still in their
upper 20's lower 30's so I picked up this 98 for 13k.  Not one scratch on
it.  It's the perfect & practical car for me to go to work and school in the
evening.  I realized I had to buy this car quick because the truck was
sucking about $90 a week out of my wallet.  With the Cobra, I'm down to
about $60 a week ;0)

sucks you had to sell yours.

It's true, I did.
Not wo worry, it was time. trust me.
Now, someone else can play with it like it was meant to be.

I on the other hand, already have started modding my Libby. Got my skids
half on, the rest next week, next a light bar, after that a lift...
