Me and the SRT10 last season (we both tried to kill each other....a love/hate relationship)
Me: Several hours of physical therapy/massage/counciling
The SRT10: About $2500 in body work and a new set of tires (which are also very $$$)

Its pretty and lots of power...just not practical in our weather conditions. Basically a toy.

Thanks for the birthday wishes.

I love how you pull off 'gentle spiritual' and 'hardc0re road-killer' at the same time. Keep it up. ;)

Yup that's me...Mad Max meets Buddha. That is about how it is half the time too. I like metal music and fast cars. I like martial arts. But I LOVE ceremony, flute music and quiet reflection. A very good friend called it being a Renaissance man and I like that term. Another friend calls me a "poet warrior". That should be on the stone when I journey home. I see no reason to be anything else. One of the greatest martial artists of all time was a man by the name of Gichin Funakosi who brought Karate to Japan. One of these styles that developed from these teachings is called Shotokan after his nickname Shoto, which means "butterfly". This was also his pen name for his art and poetry. I think we must all look deeply into our various diversities. If we do that it can cause us to do the same in others. It is quite difficult to lie to someone who walks a spiritual pathway that has led them to great introspection. It is truly one of the first medicine gifts.

Yeah this one was fun, but not very pratical or useful in the snow. Good for someplace like CA or FL maybe. Although I loved the interior. Very Spartan and it suited a racing type truck. The top speed we had it to on our test track (without snow) was 140mph. That is a pretty good ride to say the least.
