I drive a E55T, SLK55 and 65 Mustang Conv.
I am going to be in El paso for one night on 9/27 and thought if anyone was nearby perhaps we could meet for dinner. Of course the dinner has to be at The Cracker Barrel as we don't have them here but that is beside the point.

Well... I could probably be talked into something better but for a California girl there's not much better than good food that'll harden your arteries before you leave the restaurant.

What's the deal with the Touareg being a POS? I'm a fan of the V10 TDI but that's never been enough to persuade me to get one. Just curious about your experience...

Too many electrical gremlins and the worst A/C I've ever had in any vehicle. It makes 80's Porsche 911's seem frigid. I have taken it back to the dealer several times and they can never fix anything.

What can I say...give me a choice of a pair of custom cowboy boots or Cartier diamonds and I am more likely to chose the boots. Of course this does not mean I am willing to return the Cartier I already have, Remember, I'm expensive but worth it
