Talking

Do either of you guys ever get into the wrong car accidentally?

As for the 2 Satin Silvers, WHAT does your dad drive while not driving the TL-S? Does he want you to help him with putting miles on his TL-S....so as to break it in? You want to help in any way possible, right? BTW, what dealership did you buy from? Did they give you any breaks since you bought 2 at the same time?

My inlaws had an older TL ...

... but was never quit satisfied. I'm not sure what year, but it was at least as old as a '99 (may have been earlier?). They traded it for a Toyota Avalon.

Well I dont live with my parents anymore,but when i did i used to stand in front of my dads car trying to open the door, realizing i was standing at the wrong one. My dad has a Volvo that he likes to drive around. He thinks its bad to drive a new car? go figure. He says after a year he'll start driving his TL around. He only taked it out on Saturdays and prob drives it like 10 miles. He needs to change the oil on it, but wont listen to me. Oh btw, he doesnt have a TL-S, its just the reg. TL We bought our TL's from Gillman Honda up north. Actually we didnt buy it together, mines about 2 weeks older than his, but we did get the same price. $28,700 drive out.

TL4mo: I noitced your in Houston, going to Import Expo?

I don't live with my parents anymore (I live in Indiana and they live in SC), but that was the first time we had both cars in the same place at the same time. I though a pic would be really cool

Either you both parked in the living room, or that's the neatest garage I've ever seen!

Unfortunately, no. When I was home the only sunny day when both cars were clean occurred on the day I was leaving. I will try to get one next time both cars are in the same place.

To all others commenting on the neatness of my parents garage..... that DOES NOT run in the family (note in my sig that my garage door is closed). My parents were lucky enough to have a HUGE storage room behind the garage, so all the 'junk' is hidden from view. So, when my dad is banished to the garage....he turns on the portable TV and grabs a soda from the fridge, rubs his toes in the carpet remants (keeps oil off of the cement) and is almost in heaven. Of course their garage is not air-conditioned...yet.
