exactly. i was discussing that with someone at the classic. the wifes car
has been having proplems which are now fixed but the car was missing you
could only go about 60 folks were honking and giving me the one finger
salute. if i drive the bus going the same spead folks still honk but they do
it while showing boobies or giving the peace sign or smiling. it is awesome.
i have been thinking about getting a beetle just so other folks will have
sore shoulders from the punch buggie routine.
