removed the 20 year old 5% VLT limo tints that the PO had installed on all the windows. So nice to be able to see out the back!

Took car to a 3 day class I have to attend in CT. So, after three hours of driving, the seats aren't great and the sound system leaves a lot to be desired. Still love the car and these issues aren't anything I didn't suspect or seen others talk about.

Suggestion: stay off the interstates, even if it makes it a 4-hour drive instead of 3. You'll forget about the seats and stereo and remember what a joy the car is when you are turning the wheel and using the pedals.

996 Comfort seats suck. Not enough bolstering or lumbar.

Last night I brushed the snow off the waterproof cover on mine, and today now I'm longing for April 2022 to come around

Default Met with my friend Tex squirrel

Drove the car, met with Tex squirrel 🐿. A bit of Porsche talk. Got my fab speed x pipe. Had to take a trip to total wine and more. To celebrate my Christmas present (xpipe) had to get a few bottles. Life is good can’t wait to get that 3.8 airbox and the xpipe on.

Nice parking lot at Chick-fil-A.

Xpipe with 3.8 airbox nicely wrap for Christmas.

Tex squirrel gave me a few odds and ends to take to Justin.


A few nice bottles to add for the Armagedeon bunker supply.
