... It's my name ... I think the Vermont nuts were irritated a year or so ago and they were added.

I dunno that I want RI advertised. I mean, how dare out-of-staters drive on our 30-year-old-patched-upon-patches roadways, and potholes

Now that's more like it -- any idea why our state isn't listed under the "Northeast" description? Haha, where's the love?

Anyway, it's cool to meet some local people who share an interest in cars. Any of you guys have AIM? It's easier the shoot the **** that way sometimes ..

Anyhow, what do you all drive?


I recently purchased an '89 Pontiac Turbo Trans AM (24k miles), and I'm now trying to 1) regroup financially and 2) buy an older Ws6/F1 to replace my powder-blue '91 Ford Tempo (it's awful, man).

I live within easy walking distance of the RI border (Westerly,) if that counts. Spend almost as much time there as I do in CT.

Nice. I'm in Pawtucket -- seconds away from Mineral Spring.

I'll keep a look out for that GTO.
