Last June my car was rear ended by a truck on the highway. Since then it just didn't feel the same. Besides crunched sheet metal, the dealer says there was no frame or suspension damage. Guess its just something mental.

Found a good replacement yesterday in a dealer in New Hampshire. After much haggling and bargaining, I picked up a nice loaded X5 4.6is. Hopefully I'll have it on Monday after the paperwork and stuff gets done.

Woo hoo

EDIT FOR PICS:

I'll take better shots in the daylight.

No wonder we have hardly seen you around here like we used to.

You were probably grieving somewhere.

I was at a fair the other day, and one of the exhibits had a bunch of die cast metal cars. The Escalade was ceaslessly being fondled by a crowd of shady characters from which loud ebonics was eminating. I guess I just don't get it, I thought old Impalas and whatnot were the gansta vehicle of choice. A Cadillac SUV? Alright....
