He is one of the few things that are awesome in life. The reason I work hard is to have this car!
you know what I mean?
We had some amazing adventures in the 7 months I have had Him. As you can see hes super dirty. Driving home from California while snow was falling got a little messy. You see they salt and graqvel the roads to help with traction. It leaves your care looking like this. As you can see he being wheeled off a tow truck.
The reason for the tow was the mini cant take chains and they shut down the pass from Yreka to Oregon chains required. So I was stuck and more snow was coming on its way. I didn't know what to do. I called all around to see about getting smaller tires, but mini is so rare in Yreka there was no one in town who could accommodate me. I ended up on the phone crying to Ryan that I was at a loss and scared that i was gonna be stuck and all I wanted was to come home. He said hed call me back and WHEN HE DID HE HIT GOLD. His dad had the Idea to use my roadside (that I just added 3 days prior) to tow me saying it broke down. And the insurance has to take you to the fist capable place that can repair it which was Medford because Mini is proprietary and can only be worked on by BMW. Not entirely true if a mechanic has the parts that are specialized for Mini they can work on it, but who cares I got over the pass. There was a lot more dangerous parts on the trip but going 5 miles and hour over really bumpy ice was a battle I was willing to have to get home to my bed and my Ryan.
I gave Booper a bath today and detailed the hell out of him. I had to wash him twice because he was that dirty. The hood stripes turn me on. I just love them, that's kinda my thing. I have 2 toy minis on my desk at work and I painted on hood stripes. My dream Mini is gun metal gray with black hood stripes outlined in white. Black roof Black side mirrors and black and gray leather interior. I have a lot of cool features in this Heated front seats ( great in the winter when the heater int he car takes forever to warm up, and great when your back hurts after a day at work.) I have a tight ass sun roof that has a screen I can open or close to diffuse the sun light on my head. I love the summer open all the windows crank up the music and drive. This one will do till I can get my dream Mini.
That Bomb is the same bomb I have tattooed on my arm. I had to carve the spikes you see on the inside to make it match right. I know its a little geeky but I don't care I dance to my own tune.
This is "the Cornell" hes my road dog. Strapped in the back and ready to ride.
