Congrats Seward!! It's a cool feeling!!

It was too late when we got home so pics tomorrow. :)
 
Thanks Josh,
The color is graphite gray, and I am tempted to get vanity plates. I was wondering if "serenity" might still be available...hmmm...

Nah, probably too nerdy!
 
While we're all talking about vehicles, here's my baby I bought early this year.

Thanks Matt!

First new car is pretty exciting but the buying process sucked. :lol Mines Granite Metallic.

I've thought about getting personalized plates but not sure if I will or not.

Hey Josh- I know you just started your job a few months ago. My wife and I started our teaching jobs this year as well. About a week ago we bought a new Toyota RAV4. Buying it was scary as crap but it is cool knowing we can finally aford something above and beyond Sideshow Items and DVDs.

Well, honestly my buying outside of the 12" SS figs will slow way down. I will have to be very selective on the PF and GG stuff I buy.

Thanks for the congrats though. :duff

Thnx Andy!! I'll get some pics up today for sure. The color is really nice looking. It goes well with the body style. That's an awesome choice as well. If I ever got enough money I'd get one of those just to have one. They are pretty cool looking. :chew

Congrats GC!! It is scary. The whole looking and having people bug you and sometimes ignore you because you're young. Also the whole how this will effect your other buying habbits, etc. I agree though it is neat knowing you can buy something bigger than just the hobby items you like.
 
The Doctor,
Check the for sale section, you'll see how I can afford a new car right now!:lol The main idea is that I can't, even working three jobs! I got 200,000 miles out of my last car though, and we parted ways last week. I have been borrowing my mom's car since she was out of town for the week, but it will be nice to get back to (ab)normal!

I keep getting drawn into collecting lines that I can't afford, but from here on out, it is SS SW/LOTR 1/6 scale only for me, with the occassional LOTR PF, and since the LOTR line moves so slowly, I hope I can keep up!

You gotta post pics Josh!
 
Slick, and on a related note isn't this the car Oprah gave away to her audience?!



*not a knock on Josh, just props to Oprah* :lol
