Rick, very cool story......no pun intended! Although a major thread drift (maybe we should move it to its appropriate spot) I find stories like yours interesting and entertaining.
My question to this eclectic group would be: What are the oddest things owners have done with their 40's (if you've had sex in your 40 you win!) and knowing how bad the weather is in other parts of the world how many have driven their cars in anything but sunny dry weather? This last part is due to the fact I know our European kin folk are more apt to use their 40's in piss poor weather then most US users. If you'll allow me.......
I've done grocery shopping in my saggy bottomed CAV and was able to get quite a few plastic bags of food into the passenger foot-well. The look from other patrons was priceless. I overheard one gentlemen say to his wife as they passed "if I hadn't seen it I wouldn't have believed it." I have driven my car in the rain, twice. She was a hand full but quite manageable. (Let me add though it was not one of Florida's infamous down pours which I confess if it had been I'd have been been seeking refuge and/or my snorkel and fins!). In this instance I had minimal water intrusion which I was quite pleased to find out about so kudo's to CAV for their efforts.
