hahahhahaha we just flew to London last month for the weekend just to see her!!!

 

Ha ha! That reminded me of when I went to Kauai with the wife a few years ago. We had a lot of luggage as it was part of a multi-state trip. Well, we rented a convertible. Had they given us a Mustang we would have been fine, but they gave us a Camaro. It had less trunk space, I think, than an LC! So we took the top down in order to get the luggage into the back seat. Not a big deal, but it was 11pm Hawaii time after a long day of traveling from the east coast. Amusing memories, anyway!

 

One time the company relocated me to Oahu. Thought it would be fun renting a Mustang Convertible and cruising the island. Several hours of driving and didn't realize how much Sun I had till that night, sick as a dog from Sun poisoning (yes, young and dumb). I was in bed the next two days, then the skin exfoliation started. Chunks of skin was dropping off, not a good feeling. Couldn't even tell while during driving that the Sun was doing so much damage. Never again!.

Also saw the same thing happen to Tourists snorkeling and their backs being exposed. Even to this day I wear a rash shirt that has SPF protection.

 

Oof. As a colleague of mine is fond of saying: "More is learned from a single mistake than from a lifetime of successes."

Sounds like you learned a lot that day!

 

We go to Maui a couple times a year. There is ALWAYS at least ONE convertible Mustang/Camero convertible rental car pulled over on the side of the highway putting the top up about 15-20mins from OGG. Without fail....haha....people think it's a great idea to start their Hawaiian holiday with the top down....and then realize just how much it sucks in the 3pm sun!

 

Took it for its first decent drive today



Glorious, day, car & sound

 

Beautiful, wheels included!👍🏽

 

Beautiful!! Those wheels look great on USB.

 

NickL,
This is off topic. I am entertaining the idea of trading in the GSF for the LC. What has been your experience? Do you have any regrets? Was the extra space in the GSF not a factor in your situation? Any advice is appreciated. Thank you.

are those the wheels that came with car or the 2nd set U got off ebay,,just curious.

 

They also look quite a bit better in person, too.

I thought the new wheel design was hideous in photos...but then I saw them in person.

 

[QUOTE=Barncobob;11802578]These are the ones that came with the car, the only option here, I have a spare set I got of E-bay in case I wreck one/some on our hideous roads

 

Sent you a long PM on it.
But in short, I do miss the GSF for its practicality. I can put on winter wheels and use it year round in NE.
If I could do it over again, I would allocate some fund to keep the GSF while getting the LC500. Now, that ship has sailed and finding another 2020 GSF in great condition that doesn’t command msrp price is impossible. I would be lying if I say I don’t search for a GSF everyday. Lol

 

I’ve been saying this. The standard ‘24 wheels are much better in person. When I first saw it on a performance coupe and test drove at the dealer, I prefer it over the previous years that, to me, has too much chrome.
On bold colors like USB, IR, and FY, they really look more sporty and less flower pedals than the previous years.

 

Installed the OEM air-cooled trans cooler today. Every part fit perfectly like a puzzle
