Mama got the bird
 
Took delivery of our 2005 50th Anniversary T-Bird this evening. Haven't
even seen it in the daylight. I like the gold color because gold is for
50th anniversary. She also had the original '55 when she was 16.

I was jazzed to get my '06 Ram new, and I am really jazzed to get this one,
too. Convertible hardtop. I'm going to look good at the welding supply
house.......

Life is good.

You mean -- she's gonna let you drive it?

Why am I not happy that they have found common ground?

Yep. We don't go a lot of places without me driving. She's a terrible
driver. Now, where can I find a gold lame Comeaux welding hat and some
Elvis style gold sunglasses?

Looking through it last night. Window sticker is in glove box. $43,100
sticker new. We got it for $18k. It has 800 miles on it.

Used, but hardly. Not a foot scrape on either side cover on bottom of door
opening. Roof cradle and straps in original factory plastic bags, with a
little plastic folding envelope with some factory wax, cleaner, rag, etc.
This has slept in a garage for most of its life.

I guess we'll drive it to Vegas in a week or so, but I MUCH prefer the Ram
2500 for jostling with the semis on the Interstate at 75 mph.

Only if you're blind or have never seen a BMW.

My sister-in-law bought 2005 bird new. It was horribly unreliable and
she traded out of it in 6 months, taking a beating on the trade.

Snicker. Why the **** would you make that claim?

Got a woody for me this morning?

It rather looks like a 3 series..to me. Dont like it? Fine.

Btw...is it true you have stopped molesting children?

One could not be a successful Leftwinger without realizing that,
in contrast to the popular conception supported by newspapers
and mothers of Leftwingers, a goodly number of Leftwingers are
not only narrow-minded and dull, but also just stupid.
