Default ttdude's stupid Friday poll #40: garage mate

Hello from the northlands. The rest of the east coast got to experience what a real snowstorm is this week. All I have to say is, "Ha!" Up here in the mountains it was a mere eight inches of fabulous powder - just brushed off the TT and went skiing.

You're TT probably won't last forever. But you can probably prolong it's life if you get it a friend to spread out the mileage.

So, what other car do you use to keep miles off the TT, or what other car will you consider in the future to do so?

Self-response: I really liked that Mini Cooper S I had at TT-West. I think I could go for one of those once I've paid off the TT - make the TT my weekend fun car.

Last week's results: most of you were too hopped up on holiday bliss to respond... or maybe you just don't see OT posts.

And to D in OR - yes I can do weekly hit and poll posts! If you want to know what's up, drop me a line.

Default I'm with you on the Cooper S. Currently we use the other car a lot on weekends

etc. so that keeps the TT mileage down.

And...YGM (soon).

Default The cooper S was way up there until (sad but true) that new Mustang really impressed me.

I know it'll be cheap plastic Ford stuff, but that retro styling looks great.
