Thanks for the warm welcome guys - I think I like this site . I'm not a shy person, so I don't mind posting my pic in the least - but if I was any uglier... Those are burgendy and chrome flowers on the car, as it was my little sister's wedding car 2 weeks ago. She wouldn't let me use black ones though, but I kinda liked how they looked on it. I even drove around the week after with one on my antenna ! As for people moving out of my way - I wish. The car doesn't look coppish, and I try to make it look as little like a cop car as possible. But, there are a few people who have accused me of trying to make my car look coppish. Really though, an old, Black, Mercury (not a Ford), no CB antennas, custom wheels, oodles of chrome - yeah, I'm trying to make it look like a cop car . That wasn't directed at you Silver, I just am recalling that one idiot who accused me of being an impersonator... I do drive like a cop sometimes though - a few weeks ago, I was just coming and getting up to speed on the ramp onto the 401 when I seen a cop wizz by with lights and sirens going. He was doing about 150 kph, and I tailed him a few hundred feet back - no cars jumped between us as he was clearing his path. That lasted all of 3 minutes, until he moved onto the paved shoulder to get past some ignorant tourists who were to absorbed in their travel itineraries to acknowledge the big white car with flashing lights and screaming siren... Oh well, it was fun driving that fast while it lasted !
