That's worth about a million points.

Yep, I lived in Danville for about 3 years in the 70's.

I don't remember Simon Hardware .. ?? Are you related to that family?

I do remember Blackhawk Ranch ...... back when it was a ranch. I did some research on some of their walnut trees.

Danville was (and I suppose still is) a nice little town.

I worked at our Western Research Center in Richmond, CA.

(that used to be a 30 minute drive, back then, even before BART)

That is a pretty area .....:)

My family has a 2-car garage, and 3 driveway spaces and street parking that can fit two small cars. It gets crazy because our street has street cleaning once every week!

So my family has 7 total, and 3 of them are mine.

My 16 BRZ is always in the garage,
My 93 MR2 is on the driveway,
My 16 Corolla is my DD Lease so it goes wherever, except for the garage.

The other 4 cars, which are all Toyotas, are driven by my family members. 1 is also a garage queen, the other 3 are DD’s.

Yes I wish I had more space. In fact when I buy a house, a 3-Car garage will be absolutely necessary.

Well now, that takes me back ..... :wub:

Sammich + small plane.

4 cars here

2003 volvo s40 (winter beater)
2015 toyota highlander (wife)
2013 BRZ (summer)
1993 toyota 4x4 pickup (trophy)

All exactly proving my point.

JFK Jr. flew into conditions he wasn't trained for, or authorized to fly in with his level of training. Absolutely nothing wrong with his plane, it was pilot error.

Same with Ritchie Valens and Buddy Holly. They had "gotta get there fever" and flew into known bad weather that the pilot had no business flying in. Wasn't their fault per se but same conditions.

You forgot John Denver, forgot to put fuel in a plane he had just recently purchased and was unfamiliar with the correct procedure to change tanks in-flight.

This is all why I only fly commercial.

Also, technically, my last video shows a vomit choker and a small plane crash in one video. I think I won the internet.

I hear that! I only have a 22-23 mile daily commute usually, so to take the xA in for that isn't a big deal. Going 100+ miles in the xA is a serious matter. The car was designed to be more of a big city car (= small car, easy to park).

The Tundra is awesome, it's the 1st Gen, so 4500 lbs with the 4.7L V8.... it moves! It was about $32-33k when new, but in todays prices for full size trucks it would cost at least $44-48k.

So that's my predicament between the two cars (xA and Tundra). The xA I've enjoyed for 11+ years... and I'll probably take her over 100k miles, so I've gotten good use. The Tundra is newer to me, and is a completely different vehicle then the xA. The xA and FRS have more similarities (mpg, 4cyl, and are cars) , so it may be that I sell the xA in the coming 1-2 years ( lucky if I get $5k or so .... so it's almost like why even sell it? !?!) , if I need the space at that time.
