So went out for lunch this afternoon, and was able to drive the 40 minutes back home with the top down!
I had to have the heat turned on a notch, but nothing conspired to give me a chill... the low heat was enough to make it feel like a midsummer day.
I think I even got a bit of a sunburn!
I love this weather!!!
can't wait to put the black wheels back on!!!
I feel so giddy!

Yeah opened the sunroof on the way back from London to Mississauga... heaven man...
I wanna wash the car Saturday but I have to run up to Woodbridge and then Scarberia for a party... Even if I did manage to squeeze in a wash, I'd never get to enjoy the fruits of my labours :(

We got like 2" of the white stuff here last night...good thing I'm not going to go and get my car for a while yet...
It was nice enough a few days ago to give'er with the new stereo in the old truck with the windows down halfway, and get it washed off...even if I had to have the heater/defroster on a bit...
