Yes I do. Why do you ask. I are you going to say something because of my guns? If so, I'll tell you this. I keep by weapons locked and stowed. I taught my sons to respect weapons at a very young age. They are 17, 15, 10 years old now. I believe if you are going to have weapons in the house with kids. You have to take the curiosity away. Teach them how to shoot. Show them how to properly handle a weapon. Show them what guns can do. I take them to the range with me when I'm home. This is what I truly believe.....db

 

More random pics!!

 

Nice Piper in the back. You fly? I have been trying to get a pic of my Z around planes too but no luck yet everywhere I rent planes do not allow my car in the field. Nice shoot.

 

Not my Piper,I fly 120,000 miles a year but only as a passenger. lol I just thought it would be a good pic with a plane in the back ground. There is a gate that is almost always open at our municipal airport so I just drove in snapped some shots and hauled butt out of there. Kinda funny that to get on the plane I get practically stripped searched and all my lighters confiscated, but It is not a problem to drive your own vehicle right next to an active runway and not ge in trouble.

Gotta join in on the fun.

My (nearly) bone stock 05 Touring (it's 3 weeks old).


One of my "homeland security" devices. I've also got a Glock 23 (.40 cal) and a couple of other toys.


This is my best friend with "Bad A$$" Billy Gunn. We ended up on a flight with him to Vegas a few years ago.


Somebody "tried" to break into my 2002 Volvo S60, but they were stopped by the double laminated safety glass! The rock they used was right next to the car and it was easily 10 inches around. The dealership was impressed.


I loved this car and really want to rice it up until my much younger sister destroyed it in 2000. She was just fine after getting smashed by a mini-van.


Finally, my wife and me. I don't know what she's doing with me, but we've been together almost 16 years.

 

Congrats jpm, sorry to see you got an auto!! j/k, keep it clean

I'm very surprised to see that the glass on the volvo owned the thieves...I wonder how stupid they must've felt... I also hope the insurance didn't give you any hassle over fixing it...

 

Dude You got a DELL i work for DELL

 

Yah that won't last once you get the MOD bug in you.....Congrats

 

How could you tell it was auto? Just curious.

The glass on the door was really cool. It had thick plastic coating on the inside and outside. I was soooo happy that I bought the upgrade because as soon as I realized what happened, I remembered that my gun was in the glove box. DOH! I was scared to death that it was gone and someone could be using it for the wrong reasons. Needless to say, I store it much safer now.

And yes, my insurance company was great. In KY, it's illegal to have any cracks in your windows so, therefore, they made it law that your insurance company has to cover all window damage and can't raise your rates. There was a dent on the door from where the rock fell, but I paid the $100 to pull it and buff it myself.

 

He can tell because the touring modle will come with 18 inch wheel in manual form, and the 17 inch wheels in auto form.

 

Can any one explain to me how you get a pic to be under 195 kb? All my pics are up around 600 and I can not figure out how to down size them.

 

quickest way is to go into paint and just resize them smaller!! go to image, stretch/skew and do like 60%!

 

I have pictures of my Z with a friends Ferrari 550 Maranello. I also have pics of engine bay, interior of the 550. The engine looks solid with socket head stainless screws. Man that is expensive hardware on it. The hood scoop is functional and is ducted to two round air inlets. The car only has about 18k miles for a 7 year old car.

I have ridden in the car, great accleration for 5.5 V12 producing 479 Horse and 419 lbft of torque. My friend has redlined (7700rpm) it for me. Feels really fast. Dont know 0-60 times. Of the 4 exhuast pipes only 2 are open below 3500 or 4000 rpm, above that all four open, the bakpressure drops and sounds really sweet, like an F1 whine.
Those shiftgates are solid and the shifter has very firm shift, no rubbery feel at all.

Looks sweet doesnt it. Z looks so tall compared to 550. Your a$$ is barely above ground when you are riding in the 550.

 

More pictures.

I have always wondered how could you shift fast with that gearbox, I mean like going from 2nd to 3rd, shouldn't it be a little diagonal?
