Default Are any of you GS owners like me? :)

Hey guys

I hope you all are having a great weekend.

Anyway, I am curious if there are any GS owners like myself.

This is how I am with my GS.

#1. When I park at a mall or supermarket, I park as far away from the other cars as possible.
(This drives my girlfriend nuts!!! )

#2. Before I get in my car, I check for any scratches.

#3. If I see anyone trash talk about the GS (there was one guy from a BMW forum) , I get ready for a huge debate with he/she.

#4. During this hot summer, when I walk in the streets, modded GSs grab my attention but girls in summer wears do not grab my attention as they used to.

Are any of you like me, or do I need to lighten up?

Donald,

I did all that you listed above, and:

- Look under my GS to check for UFO (bottles, plastic bags, dead body etc.)
- Folding my mirrors when parking
- Slowing down almost to a stop when see bumps and unavoidable potholes
- Talk about my Clublexus as a religion, at least for me!

Thanks

Hey Albert

How have you been buddy?

A few days ago, I filled up my gas and went inside to pay and get me and my girlfriend a drink.

Me: "What do you want to drink sweetie?"

My girlfriend: "Diet Coke."

I was afraid she might spill it in my GS, so I got her a bottle of water instead.

Moments later,...........

My girlfriend: "Donald, I said I wanted a Diet Coke."

Me: "You did? Hmm, I thought you said you wanted water. "

Have a good weekend Albert.

Your Friend,

Donald

Hi there

I also do all that you have mentioned.

I also talk about ClubLexus as if it is a religion. Maybe it is.

Have a good day.

-Donald

P.S. Have you found any "dead bodies" yet?

Hi there

I'm sure the girls in California are hot.

Here in NYC, I have been a little disappointed with the women.

Have a good weekend.

Take care.

Hi there

I guess some of us are too extreme.

Whenever I get some bird poop on my GS, I feel like hunting down that bird.

Have a good day.

I do #1 and it is usually an end space...no end space, no park in most cases. The Mrs. encourages it and neither of us mind the walk.

Also collect shopping carts if there is a slight chance that they may roll toward the car. If there is a crest in a parking lot with carts, the car is uphill of them.

Always on the look for the CL sticker on various Lexi.

I am glad to hear that.

The roads in Florida are so nice--smooth. The roads here in NYC suck. So many pot holes.

Take care.
