im trying to raise awareness for the phrase "pulled the trigger." its part of my campaign efforts to pay tribute to new forum members and fellow trigger pullers across the community of trigger pulling.

I parked & covered my Miata weeks ago, but I still might drive her in weather is nice. Speed6 is in garage & comes out on nice days. Beater gets driven right now since it just snowed.

I can't wait to get back into a Vette, though. Miss my C6.

Miata is for sale. Any takers?

Wow...bummer...my finger is on the trigger but I haven't pulled either yet.
But I do understand happy trigger pullers, happy trigger fingers, and happy finger triggers (and try that 3 times real fast) so I wish you the best in your trigger fingerings.

"at the end of the day" if you
"pulled the trigger" on a car with xxx
"miles on the clock" you
"prolly" have a car with holes in it.
