Tyler. Dammit! Our timing is ridiculous, we must have just crossed paths. I've been in Florida the past few days. And was also just at Cocoa Beach, Cape Canaveral, and The Florida Mall. Glad I don't have my TL down here or I'd really be pissed that I missed a chance of a photoshoot with the one and only UA6FTMFW.

Anyway, excellent pics! The VAB/Kennedy is incredible. Your TL is a true road warrior. Any real issues on the trip? That thing has been all over the eastern United States.

Thanks Aaron! We had a blast.

And I didn't think about the wheel at all. I thought of a boob at first

Thanks again for meeting up with us Jeremy! I hope we didn't scare you or anything, we both have pretty strong personalities

And we had a blast down there in FL. We wanted to do more but we ran out of time

Make a trip down to Florida. You won't regret it.

Dew it. Just save up some money and take a week or two (or three) off of work. Plan a few days in which you want to get up and get somewhere early but have most of the time to sit and relax.

Son of a bitch

The TL did great! I averaged about 29 miles per gallon which included a few days of pure city driving. I'm starting to get a ticking/rattling noise behind my passenger side headlight. I'm not sure if something is loose or what. It's not bad enough to freak out about but I'm a perfectionist so it bugs me

I hit 118k today and it still drives, looks, and sounds as great as ever

Oh and here are some pics I took after giving the car a much needed "Post-Florida" wash. I bought this cheap attachable wide angle lens thing about two years ago. I thought it was cool at first but now I want a true wide angle lens. I put a 10-24 lens on my Christmas List this year but I don't think Santa got it for me. Anyways, just for shits and giggles...

















You can see the RV6 Strut Bar in all of it's glory...





Damn red intake

I like the way you think.


On the topic of the engine bay - I originally thought you should do a black intake, but Ive changed my mind. Go grey/silver to match the strut bar and the top plate on the manifold.

Its amazing to see how far your car has come since you bought it:





Shit, I remember you driving all the way up to the Great Falls meet when it was still a 4x4

Definitely invest in a true wide-angle lens..they're worth every penny. I use a Tokina 12-24mm f/4 (fixed aperture).

WDP + wide angle = mmm:

You crazy bro!

Yeah the red intake looks like shit. It's the ONLY thing on the car that isn't silver, black, white, or gunmetal.

Thank you sir! While my car may be an inspiration to you, your photography is an inspiration to me. Santa didn't bring me a wide angle lens but I hope to have one soon!

Sorry your mascot is getting torn up by a Chihuahua

And thank you sir! The car is running great at 118k and it turns heads quite often. I'm hoping my tax return is substantial so I can get some new wheels
