i've already been HIT twice. the day after i got it a friend and i were on our way home from the ramp park an hour from our house, guy infront of me signals a right hand turn, i slow from 45 because he'* slowing down to turn. The guy behind me doesn't slow down and rear ends me. i pull over but the guy jets and im not familiar with the area at all so we call the cops. good news is, his liscense plate fell off and all it did was mess up my bumpers finish and some sort of absorbers between the frame and bumper. guys car got impounded and he still hasn't shown up.
month after that, same friends ditzy sister backs out in her f-150 as im pulling into their garage to load our bikes up because it'* raining. he tells her to wait til i get in to back out but she goes anyway and im holding the horn down they're jumping around like idiots waving there arms and she still backs into me and caves in my back driver side door. if i pulled up i would have gotten hit further back. pulled back i would have gotten hit further forward it was un avoidable. she hit 6 things in 3 months it was pathetic. so it'* all fixed now and going strong though.

Everyone'* Bonnevilles are Newer than mine. Mine'* a 92, but at least I have a tape deck, power locks and a remote.
My dad just bought a brand New 2003 Truck, and it doesn't have a remote OR power locks. Dont you think that'* STRANGE?
My Bonneville is maroon with grey interior, and I DID make one minor modification where I got some seat covers. They're completely black, except for some white Chinese writing on them. It looks SO PRETTY with the red. ^-^

I feel like I am 17......does that count? Ok, I am actually older than dirt (3
but I still feel as young as all of these youngens. When I drive my bonneville I definitely have the need for speed!!
