I just got new tires on the XTerra, Cooper Discoverer S/T's. The guy at the tire shop asked me if I wanted the white letters turned in or out, and I told him he could do whatever he wanted. So now I have white letters out.

Found out last night that Mater's days are numbered. I was changing the oil after work and discovered the headgasket has blown again. Less than a year after it was fixed. Decided I'll just drive it till it stops then maybe find a small block to put in it.

The Pacifica is awsome.  We have a dual monitor DVD player in it.  We headed off to Charleston, SC a couple of years ago and brought 3 DVDs and stopped one time for gas.  5 hours later we were there and the kids didn't even think it had been that long.  Great trip and very comfortable.

Actually, in addititon to the rollerblades, big wheel & pogo stick, the Lovely Mrs. Schro & I have a 1997 Acura 3.0 CL and a 1994 Toyota V6 4Runner. To me, a car is nothing more than transportation, especially now that we have two kids. I love our cars and (knock on wood) they are still running well.

Sadly, it's a 2001 Oldsmobile Intrigue. Even more sadly, I really like it. I bought it new, and it's been a great car. (aside from being in 5 traffic accidents, which I can't really blame on the car). When I moved from Detroit to Green Bay, I drastically reduced the amount of miles I was putting on it. It just turned 70K...at that rate, I'll probably be driving it for another 10 years.

its a v6 3.5 saloon.

used to be a loyal BMW guy.. had 2 of them a 728i and 528i both 1997 model.

i miss my previous cars really nothing drives like a bmw imo but bmws need more maintanance and care (reads money) and i have priorities now after marriage and kids.
 
im quit happy with the Mitsu its reliable, fast and roomy enough for my small family

That's good to know, Pig, I'm hoping I can get another 100K at least from this baby.
With proper maintenance and good care I've been told you can keep em' running till they fall apart. And at least out here I don't have to worry about the rust factor! lol.
