    Thanks Rev. I guess us wagonlovers are a bit "off the main road". I flew 3000 miles for a Colony Park, drove it 3000 miles the other way, and if I could have a do-over, I wouldn't change a thing. :D

    Dedication for sure, If I had have known I would have picked you up at the airport 90.

    I know the feeling Rev, My Clown wagon is still at the old owners house 10 minutes away. I drive by it every other day, stop at the one and only spot on the road where I can see it and procratonate about bringing it home. Seller does'nt have a problem with it being there:D

    But it's kind of nice to have a project waiting in the wings - that unopened box with endless possibilities. :yup:


    Do you have visitation rights?


    It's like having cash stashed in all different hiding places in the house - makes you feel secure to know your cars are all out there? ... somewhere? :confused:

    Seriously Norman, I only have room in the driveway and the attention span for two wagons at at time (the Subaru is the one man wagon - gets jealous of whatever other car I drive - key fob always beeping at me for no apparent reason ... very possessive. The C.P. is more mature - plays nice with the Subie, but deep down still knows she's my favorite). Did I just admit all this online?! :confused:

    Actually there is a technical reason for the Subie's beeper issue. Ford ignition systems, especially the 1975 to 1996 systems emit a radio frequency that can set off car alarms and cause some vehicles to unlock the doors on beeper-activated vehicles. I don't know if there was ever a fix for that, but you might check a recall site.
