Its still chilly here in Michigan, but today is going to be nothing but sunshine so the new girl had to come out for a trip to work. Now I have a descent drive to work (about 60 miles) but with the sun shining and a good Jimmy Buffett mix on the CD player, the drive could have been 600 miles and I wouldn't have cared! Boy these are fun cars to drive...
