Thanks guys, it's just one of those things, I figured you guys might understand.
Stu, not much rain gets in when that moon roof is open as long as it's coming straight down. During windy storms I close it up, otherwise keeping it open is a good way to vent the car - it's gets hot in the afternoon down here in GA.
Dave the gas mileage is not as good as I want it, around 21 mpg on the highway. I'm trying to figure out why, I've pretty much ruled out vacuum leaks and now I'm taking a closer look at the Nikki, maybe take it apart this weekend to have a closer look.
Brett, in your dreams. 12A's rule.
Tim the goats are easily bought

I paid for the beads Banzai, left over booty from when I was riding the floats down in New Orleans.
The Silver One looks great, for sure. But what I really like about her are the trouble free miles. She just doesn't complain.
Here's a pic from this evening:

Well yes, not a Prius, which gets about 10 mpg more. But, a Prius costs $20,000+. I got my silver 85 GSL, with 107,000 miles on it, for $1,200. That extra $18,000 buys a lot of gas, not to mention the breaks on taxes, insurance and maintenance costs.
And I get to drive my 12A powered Silver One, not some dumb boring Prius (and no issues with the brakes or accelerator peddle).

Yeah when I was first introducing Jackson (the big brown goat) to Coors Lite, he grabbed the pull tab and ate it after the drips ran out.
Needless to say I didn't tell my wife Cathy about this until much later (Cathy was opposed to the goats having beer at the time). Not sure what happened to that pull tab.
