After getting the N on Friday at lunch, I immediately had some Vredstien Wintrac Pros put on at 4pm. Since then ive pretty much been ripping around in it, its every bit as hilarious and angry as i hoped it would be. I replaced the pads and rotors on the gfs honda on Saturday, and today i made a run uptoward Kent CT, about 4.5 hrs. Plenty of thumbs up and smiles from other drivers. One pleasent suprise my carsickness prone gf doesnt get sick during backroad bombing in the car unless she looks at her phone. Pressumably this because it corners so flat. One unpleasant suprise is that the rear mirror is pretty much uselessfor anyone over 5'10 because it sits too high and all you see is the ground infront of the car following you lol.

There will be plenty of N pun updates goong foward.

So two weeks ago or so, my dads S6 lost power on the highway, and had to be towed. Dealer said it was blown turbos, and hed be on the hook for half the repair.

Not 2 weeks later audi issues a recall for the turbos, because the oil filter they put was too fine, and could starve the turbos of slippy juice.

So the dealers gonna cover the whole 12k repair. Not bad.

Taken yesterday. Taking final delivery right now.

After about 4 months i was able to get an order in for a blue, manual Veloster N. Wooooooooo

My Veloster N in blue with the stick will be here beginning of February. WOOO.

Sales guy say "it will be there by Saturday 100%"

Happy birthday to me.

I pick up the vn tomorrow!

Made it to Albany. Doin fine on the winter tires. We saw at least 8 cars crashed off the road and 3 or 4 tractor trailers, one accident which we saw happen. Really scary, looked like the guy got blown off, right into a tree. It was a volvo truck that tried to pass us earlier. My gf saw it happen in the rear view and we called the police. Hope the guy is ok.

Some one got all excited I was in St martin, so this is for you.

My N in the port in philly.

@Gabriella living in an affluent area i was caught between 2 teslas and s taycan the other day.

@Noodles fresh mahi mahi ceviche is some of the best stuff ive ever put in my mouth.

@MM54 thats a line up!

@decay-still-has-too-many-beaters oregons what pumps?

@DipodomysDeserti let me rephrase on a new day. Vets and Vet techs have some of the highest rates of suicide of any profession. The reason my gfs practice and many others are not letting folks back in is not because covid, but because customers are truly terrible to the employees as a rule. Imagine being screamed at for being late because you had to just put down a dying puppy. Happens fairly often. So it a measure to literally save vet professionals lives at the expense of you feeling your vet is "impersonal."

@TheBarber thats because the owners are assholes and the dogs are much calmer without mommy hyping them up. Sorry you dont get to scream at a vet tech today.

@HFV its got a neat history. A guy i knew got one for $600 in drop believe it or not
