Nope, me neither, and never will be.  
Still got ma guns, ma hunting dog, ma pick up truck, ma 30 acre ranch in Montana, difference is, I want a car I can own with the same engine for 15 years, only European cars can do that.  After driving a BMW with 180,000 miles on it for a week-end, lets just say one knows quality when it smacks them in the face.

LOL Ammo, whos knows, I may still make it there...I've got 12 weeks to save up money before I slap down a chunk of change for a down payment, last years con only put me back $700 bucks, ticket and all, so, maybe I'm just preparing myself for the worst..meanwhile, I had to post the pic, damn, thats a fine automobile, hope the budget fits it.

Rip, just drive down to the con and charge beers for rides once you get here.  

You could maybe even make a profit by transporting computers down for other NWers.

nice ride, but what about the economy?
 I think you should just settle for a Ford Focus and make the con    http://www.fordvehicles.com/cars/focus/

After SOB's shipping ordeal last year, he might be just stupid enough to drive that far.

LOL...after last year, my first thoughts after getting back were why NOT to drive down next year.  Couldn't think of many, but being alone on a cross-country journey with Ripsnort?  <shudder>

I can't help but thinking that if you order this car on Tuesday.. it is most likely that you have your 45th birthday on Monday.

I'm not implying mid-life crisis or anything rip
