[Shotimes] driving pet peeves

I've gotten that too actually.  I have a few customers at work that have
come in in SHO's, that I've given the URL for SHOtimes, and the NorthWest
SHO Club

I've always gotten weird looks and raised eyebrows for being enthusiastic
about a "Taurus"

Regardless of what motor it has,  or how cool of a car it is, most folks
just won't/can't understand.

Speaking of that, anyone drive a nice white gen 2 with aftermarket wheels
and exhaust down 69 though Ft. Wayne last saturday - had michigan plates.
If so it was a good looking car!  I was driving the S/O's Saturn.
