    Been a while...

    So, the last time I posted around here, I was probably driving this:



    And probably owned this, but wasn't driving it nearly enough.



    A lot has changed since then. The Mazda was totaled in a head on collision. The Grand Am was sold this year after almost exactly 10 years of ownership. Got married a year ago (Sunday) and am currently preparing to settle down up here in little Vermont and enjoy life.

    When it comes to cars, these days I'm driving in a little bit more style.













    2015 Mazda 6 Touring in Deep Crystal Blue. Love it. Pictures 3-6 include my wife's 2014 Mazda 3 Sport in Soul Red. Hope to see you all at the end of the month on the Kanc Cruise.

      Unfortunately, the garage is my mom's (which includes her 2015 CX5 and 2009 MX5) that was just built last year. Certainly is a great place to clean up the cars though.

          Yeah, my then girlfriend, now wife, was driving home and hit some black ice. She slid through a corner and into oncoming traffic that happened to be a Chevy 2500 truck. Totaled both vehicles. Heather (my wife) walked away with a bruised knee. It was a great testament to Mazda's safety. Here's a few pictures of the aftermath.





          Unfortunately, I guess I don't have a picture of the interior, but all that you could see changed (aside from the air bag) was the aftermarket head unit was shifted in. Aside from that, the car looked perfectly fine.

              Figured I might as well update this with the few changes made since the cruise. Got the windows tinted and got my Tanabe springs on. Pictures aren't that great and I apologize for that.

              One.


              Two.


              Three.

                    It was a fun car for sure. Just never could give it the attention I it deserved.
