This week’* rode trip was going half way well. Small problem with job in Denver Colorado but I did drop in on an internet store that I do business with from time to time. Then it is on to the bustling metropolis of Lincoln, NE. The conversion went really well in Lincoln then it is on to the bright spot in the Corn Belt Des Moines, IA.

So the flight is an hour late boarding in Lincoln. We board then wait on the tarmac for an hour and a half before going back to the gate. Once back in the terminal United cancelled the flight. Call the travel agent and i figure rent another car and drive to Des Moines after all it is a two and a half hour drive and i needed to be there for today. Go down to the National desk and rent a car. Show the nice lady my Emerald Isle card and the service got better. I asked for any car with XM and was told none had XM, but wait this one may. I pick up my bags and cancel my flight at the request of the travel agent and it is off to the parking garage.

Well what do you know it is a GP with XM. So I pop the hood to see what engine is in the ca, a 3800 or 3900 as my car in Denver had a 3900 and was really strong.

Pop the hood and what do I see?

woohoo.. first experience?

sorry about that wagon wheel of a pulley though

I would have paid the mileage, went home and SWAPPED>ROFL

Nothing like the sound of the whine

I see a possible convert

How sweet it is!!! Ya gotta love boost

Long drive from Des Moines to DC. I like my Bonny better. More butt room for a fat azz like me.

Nope not the first time. Some Bonneville addic in Phoenix let me drive his girlie color car.

return it NOW!!!!! you dont want to go to the dark side.



Oh god I think I may have lost another one.









have fun Tom,

I meant swapped the engines and fitted the series 3 cover back on! They would have never known

You sir are correct.

LMAO....it is fun isn't it? Not only should SLE owners never drive a boosted car....but never, and I swear never, ride on a dragstrip in a boosted car....I got the shakes now just thinking about it!
