I am looking for doggles in the same color for Edie so the two of them can cruise together...

Look out Tucson here they come.

MEAN--oh, I feel so dumb--but dumb and stylin'......

Yes, I am getting a carseat and doggles for Edie so we can cruise around Tucson together. I can't wait!! But first I NEED TO SELL THIS HOUSE...but that's another thread.

Don't worry girlfriend...you will be styling

AmandaG · 02-09-2006, 03:15 PM

I want to have a midlife crisis... RIGHT NOW!!!

Thanks to Cindy (know to YT members as livingdustmops) who has great influence with the dealers!

Wow! I like the new car! Pretty sharp.

Congratulations on your new transfer. Enjoy it.

I've been having a mid-life crisis for the past 15 years!*! LOL

Yes, fasteddie. It is the one with the larger engine. I usually buy very inexpensive cars and drive them for 10-12 years. This is my first automotive extravagance.

fasteddie · 02-09-2006, 03:53 PM

alisonJ: Then you definitely deserve it!

It's a great value for what you are getting, I'd probably get the Solstice GXP over the Miata too if I was in the market for a convertible... You've gotta show us pictures of Edie in the driver's seat after you get the sweet ride!

SoCalyorkiLvr · 02-09-2006, 05:46 PM

Be sure to close the roof when you have a Yorkie in it.

Or be sure to get a harness and seat belt for her. Then you can leave the top down and put her doggles on and really be stylin'.

I drive an 03 Mitsubishi Eclipse. It is silver-grey with blue seats. I saw the new 06 Eclipse at the dealers in what they call Sunrise something, or Sunset something.....anyway it is sort of red/orange, but beautiful red/orange. I'd love to trade my boring grey one in for that!!! But, I'm retired and can't see paying that much (or, rather, can't afford to pay that much!!!)

You have fun with that car. It will go great in AZ.
