• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

What else is in your Garage?

I had a '78 Pace Car for a few years.
View attachment 200539

When I started to restore mine I was seriously looking at the pace car paint job. However, mine is the silver model so I kept it stock. In the process, I came across the hidden build sheet and dam if all the numbers matched. The origin was Bolingreen and the destination was Okinawa. Whaaaat? More 78 vets were sold than any other year and a many were sold to military guys. The story was my vet had a 12 hour clock and not a 24 hour clock so it didn't make to Okinawa. It was likely shipped out and then returned to another US port so the duty didn't apply.
 
I say the proper number of bikes is n+1; my wife refuses to accept that. :spyder:

Interesting. Our Pace Car was original, 3,200 Miles on it (1,570 then it came here...). was to nice to drive kind of thing, sold it and got the wife the 02 TA. We drive the TA's, so I think I did right.

My 83 Venture Royale was my #1 best bike of all. It had all the bells and whistles we have today and then some. Plus, everything worked all the time and at a constant 50 MPG.

If I had a Pace Car I think I'd park it in the bedroom and make the wife sleep in the garage. Well, on second thought, maybe not. LOL Yea you did right.

Power has been out for over 30 hrs, generator keeps the pellet stove warming us and lights as we need them. NVEnergy says 2 more days. But they have been very wrong in the past.

Now that my 2012 RT is stowed away in a corner for the winter there is place for my 2010 WV Tiguan 2.0 diesel.

Why is the Dog in the Garage?

The dog goes were ever I go. In the day time, I am usually in the garage, which ain't really a garage. It is a big metal building I use for a garage and also a work shop.
