Apr. 18th, 2007 08:25 am*laughs* No matter what people say, it's still a V8 in there.
Went to work with the motorhome after all. It's cool, the more i use it, the better it seems to run. And it was funny to see the coworker's reaction. It was kinda "yeah, it's... particular...", then when i started it up and played with the engine a bit, that quickly changed their attitude toward the thing.
Funniest part is that some guys with a not so new but still sport-ish car just pulled next to me in the parking lot, and started making comments along the lines of "Yeah, your case isn't improving. You're supposed to get faster, not more grampa.", "Trying to find new ways to be late for work." and other...
They showed up next to me again once at the light on the street outside the parking lot. Empty street, then they started acting as if they wanted to race and making comments about how they'll smoke me and blah. So yeah, i decided to see what the motorhome could actually do.
... turns out that while not a sport car, it does really take off. I'm not sure if they didn't mess up something with the other car, but i know they were in my rear view mirror until the next red light.
And no, i didn't go way over the speed limit or do anything crazy, it was just a short bit of street between the two entrances to the shopping center. But seriously we were laughing so hard in there.
Now i go to bed. Whee!
