Holy sh!t kid! What are the chances that you and Redz are missing the same finger.
Ya, you should come to Mass so I can give you a 100 reasons to never come back.

holy heavens man!!! how did you organize all of this?! how awesome!! yeah that's got to be one hell of a scenic trip. you didn't have any problems with the tib? glad you got to meet some of the great people from here... ah i wish i could do that too but i met OP from here which is awesome. very cool guy...
i think the ath is the best roof spoiler out there. definitely looks waaaay better than the old one. thanks for sharing this with us?! yeah the tiburon we were going to get (our very very first one back in '99) had 76k on it and it was only 2 years old with hail damage, driven 'cross the United States to California and back. talk about cruisn' USA... HAHA.

Yeah, i'm trying to meet as many of the guys i've been talking to as possible on this trip. I don't know when i'm going to mass, but evenutally.

Speeding? I consider 100mph safe and prudent driving.... it's not speeding unless you get caught by an officer of the law

HAHA!
Good to see you're havin fun on your West Coast Tour. I guess you should be leaving that god-forsaken state Montana right baouts now eh? G'luck with the trip to the East Coast, and no more drive-through Messican Car-Washes, lmao.gif</div>
I'm leaving soon, but it's not god-forsaken, it's home mang. I still wish i had celebrated cinco de mayo with a baseball bat.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Patreezy @ May 19 2006, 03:08 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Actually I like the ATH mang.
Did you stick or bolt it on? Sorry if I missed when you already talked about this..
and Spart, you should go to the ColdStone. GREAT IceCream, they put almost anything in it you want. And when you tip em they have to sing some corny song and dance around. They have like 10-20 songs so DTN went crazy with the tips and we just sorta sat their laughing at them along with all the customers in the store. It's humiliating but it gets the bills paid. LOL
Oh yea, DTN. Not sure what route your traveling but I'd try and get a shot of the tib with the St. Louis Arch ("The Gateway To The West"). Ya know that was a rollercoaster once? LOL. Check out the windows at the top, a cart used to take you all the way to the top. Not anymore though. =(</div>
The ATH spoiler has bolts and a type of sealer/adhesive that comes with it. I bolted it on and I didn't use the adhesive, i used a different brand stuff that my bodyshop guy told me to use. I'll post a DIY soon, it wasn't that hard, just mark and drill 2 holes, stick it on, and put in screws.
Yeah... i don't think i could work there. If you put a dollar in and ask for a song, they have to sing and dance it between customers.... every last one of them, in a line, singing and dancing for my dollar. Dood, i need to find another one of them.

in about 3 hours i'm leaving for the east coast.

ok, i guess i'm going to have to go to mass... do you guys have a local car club there? Maybe we could get a group meet/drive/eat one of these weekends in a few months?

Will do, what kind of warehouse? like a shop or just to store stuff? how do you manage to cloak your car when you drive it?

Organized? I looked at a map and plotted my course. I just made some calls when i was on the road. I got Patreezy's and REDZMAN's number via PM when I was in texas because i realized i'd be driving by them. REDZMAN hooked me up with TiburonMoo enroute. I plugged addresses into my in car navigation system, and communicated by cell phone.
it's a great trip, i havn't had any problems with the tib except my tire got screwed.. literally. had to take it to a tire repair shop. That's cruising... I had to hit all 4 corners of the US, but not straight drive across it. I've got my longest drive comming up... 3 days stright, missoula MT. to columbia SC.

Definately mang! I'm starting the long drive there in a few hours. We should get together sometime. I'll be stationed there for a few years. I always like meeting people with similar interests. I'll hit you up.

I tell you what, there is no better experience in life, and no better way to see this great country of ours and learn to appreciate what we have here, than a coast to coast roadtrip. If you do it by yourself, you learn things you never knew about yourself. It can be a very ZEN experience.
Props bro, I can't wait for my next roadtrip.

No we don't really have a club and getting Spart to hang out takes an act of God. But there are a few of us Hyundai boys that get together once in awhile. 2 Rd2's, an Rd1, Elentra GT, Tubo'd accent and a Honda guy just to pick on. If youre ever in the area hit me up or Spart or Zhiryst.
