Howdy All,
Here we are again. Is everyone getting ready for winter?

Hey Frank, Good to see the Roll Call thread again.

I can't believe how fast September went by. I'm ready for winter with a new fireplace insert and 3 cords of split hardwood on their way.

I still need to get snow tires and have them mounted on the 2 extra sets of bundts for the w123's.

My favorite time of year is approaching. Cool weather and turning leaves ... plus no need for AC in the car which is good since the wagon has none.

I've been here for a solid three years... and still drive the 300D. Got it with 245 on the clock and have put almost 55k on it. I'll hit 55k in a month or two

This will be the first year that I get to leave the W126 in the garage for the worst of the winter weather. It won't be a garage queen though as i'll be able to take her out on dry days when there isn't as big a chance of salt getting splattered all over the body.

Yeah, its October here on the west coast. Its 12.45AM according to the clock on my puter, and I am currently taking a study break.


I got two midterms tomorrow, comp programming and economics, the two midterms that I am worrying about the most. Been studying since 4.00PM local time, and am going to crash here soon.



To think, I get to do this all again in another month when the second set of midterms comes around. Woohoo. What happened to all the partying college student are supposed to partake in?


Other than that, I am here, and all vehicles are present and accounted for!

(Well, I am missing one.)

The new '08 Outback awd will be put to the test this winter for the first time

when the snow comes while the AMG will sleep in the garage because that is why I bought the Subaru in the first place, a few months ago. For the snow. Everyone around here seems to buy them probably because of the snow up here
