When I was a kid my dad and his buddies used to use the end of the seat belt. Worked well and they weren't wearing them anyways!

More proof that the 928 is one of the best cars ever built.
You need to add that to the "928-Did You Know" thread!

I can't condone it. The caps will dig into the metal and remove any of the protective plating which remains. Overall it will deteriorate faster.

Now that the **** part of my brain has had it's say.....what a cool feature!!! Glen did show me this cool feature at Rick's party.

BTW, I believe other Porsches also offer this feature so don't go bragging to others about it.

Related Note: The door compartments on my 82 perfectly fit aluminum cans.

Pop Cans, mind you.

Two-Hearted Ale. Nice choice.

I have to admit I was a feeling a little guilty not cracking open some German brew, but agree that the Two Hearted is about as good as it gets... especially when it’s someone else’s… Thanks Hans!

Troy, sorry to blow by you so fast… I was hoping you would mash the go pedal too, but think I got the jump.

Oh yea! When I moved to VA from MI, I was glad to find the Bell's made the trip with me - VA was one of their first non-regional target markets.
Have a mini-keg of Two Hearted in my chiller at home.
Used to live in Kalamazoo and get pissed at Bell's Eccentric Cafe.

If you guys like the hops.. have you checked out their Hopslam? YUM!

That seems dangerous. What if you fall out on the highway while trying to open your Pale Ale?
Oh wait..you have to pull over and get out of the car. I see.
I just get my girlfriend to open mine,



because doing it myself while driving is dangerous.

Ed, OMG I want one!
Let me guess: that's a limited edition/one off. You'd have to charge me 2 hrs. machine time for mine
