So you're a Magnum fan? Then what kind of car do you drive?

2004 Chevy Colorado 4x4 Z71 - Cherry Red Metallic.

It's my baby! (And even better, almost paid off!)

My next is the new Camaro.

drool.......

Don't know how the heck I'm gonna afford it because I don't want to get rid of my truck, gas prices or not!

gas prices or not!

Do you know you' re not unlucky with gas prices in U.S. ?
Now in my city 1 liter = 1,50 euro ! => 1 gallon = 8,80 $

I don't drive a cool car...a Dodge Durango, but it does have a MAGNUM V8.

Here's a picture of my Taurus, that my neighbor so thoughtfully totaled for me. (Stepped on the gas instead of the brake, or so she says.) All this right in the parking lot of my own apartments!

Oh yes, and GEICO gave me a whopping $800 for it. If that sort of thing happens to me, I at least would like to get a kiss.

(I'm not bitter!!)

Poor Sellecklover

I can imagine you`re not bitter, guess you are more really p****
oops, did I say that?! Think about what would have happened in case your car stood there without handbrakes on. (proper words?) Surely like the Ferrari in Torah, Torah, Torah...

Wow SL, that pretty much sucks as bad as it possibly can (but don't get me started on women drivers!

).

I have State Farm and they did me right almost 2 years ago when a drunk (cough, cough *female*) driver hit me and totalled my car. I was driving a '96 Camaro with 83,000 miles on it and S.F. gave me $6000 for it, almost 33% more than the bluebook on it. Needless to say I was very happy!

Yesterday my son asked if he can borrow my "MM". When I asked him what`s that supposed to be he said, "your Magnum mobile!" just because of the Tigers cap and the rubber chicken in the back of my car...

Actually, I'm over the car accident thing -- it's my husband that can't let it go...LOL I failed to mention that it happened in the midst of my upstairs neighbor's water heater bursting and flooding our apartment. I took 4 weeks of construction to make our apartment the same as it was before the flood. Luckily we had renter's insurance that covered most of our belongings. Miraculously, our computer was undamaged. (Go figure!)

Sellecklover
I am still laughing at your list you made about Magnum Mania.
Sorry about your car and flood.
Keep your chin up!
Life can be a pain sometimes.

A few years ago I was driving my 2003 Chevrolet Trailblazer, yes I am still driving a chevy, once a chevy girl always a chevy girl.
Anyway I was driving down this road minding my own business and this lady in her camero comes flying out of the bank parking lot and hits my car in the back left side. Can you beleive she told the officer, with a straight face, that when she pulled out I hit her. I almost lost my cool.
The officer didn't beleive her and gave her a lengthy lesson on who has the right of way. The lady was on her way to work. She was an ambulance driver.

Sophia, I love you sweety, I really do...but...it's Camaro, no "E" in it. I know I'm a bit sensitive to it but when you're a life-long Camaro fan and you see it mispelled all the time you get a little sensitive about it! No biggie, just thought I'd point it out.

What's funny though is I have relatives in west Texas who can't even pronounce "Camaro". They pronounce it "Kuh-mer-uh". They wonder why I snicker everytime they say the word, hehehe...

Coops
please accept my deepest apology

I will try to remember that it is a Camaro.

LOL, not to worry sophia! Any woman that's a Chevy fan has a little place in my heart for them!
