    Something new (and it's not a camera!)

    I've been very busy lately with my new job and everything. I'll also be moving again shortly. Things have been going well for me (all things considered). I coudln't take the 88 Dakota anymore and finally decided to get rid of it. I practically had to beg the dealer to take it as part of a trade in value!

    Here's my new ride, 2005 Acura RSX Type-S (it's winter still, otherwise I'd have cleaned it and spend more time taking good photos). This car is sooo much fun to drive with its 210hp engine redlining at 8100rpm. I've had it for a little under two weeks now and went past the break in period a few days ago so have been opening it up a little. I haven't had much of a chance to really drive the thing into turns but I'm looking forward to it.

    Now I'm VERY glad I didn't waste my money buying a new camera a month ago when I was asking for advice. I knew back then that I'd eventually need a new vehicle...I'm SOOO glad I did the right thing and didn't spend any money before having bought this car because otherwise it wold have been difficult for me to afford. If you guys ever saw my old truck, you'd be very happy for me

    Sweet Ride!!!

    Congrats on the spiffy wheels there. I'm jealous ;) The only Acura I get to drive is on Need For Speed Underground 2. Unfortunately here in the foothills, having a family means having big practical family cars (read that van or suv). One day when the kids are bigger and we don't have to haul so much kiddie stuff around....

    I'll be moving from Gurnee IL, to Crystal Lake right around May 1st. Maybe I can convince Sebastian to take a few photos of me and the car
