Kinja'd!!!

Hey Oppo, it’s been quite some time since I’ve posted on here (I’d say probably 4-5 yrs since I was regularly posting). Since you last saw me, I finished college and have started working full time as a Manufacturing Engineer in the SF Bay Area. Cars I’ve had and sold since then are, in no particular order:

That supercharged 2000 Ford Expedition I had (sold to some jamoke that paid way too much for a beat to shit expo, but I still miss that thing)

Drove my moms 03 VW turbo bug for awhile. I got some funny looks as a college-age male driving a drop top bug. Sold that for my mum.

1974 Chevy C10 (ScarJo). Tinkered around with her for awhile, had a blast, did some burnouts and but I was moving so I sold her on to a younger person who had a lot of enthusiasm for the truck. I wonder how she’s doing now.

Nowadays I daily drive a 1984 Mercedes 300d pictured above. I drive about 300 miles/week and it handles it all like a champ and averages somewhere in the vicinity of 30 mpg. Phenomenal! I’m looking for something more fun to get, but I’ll post more on that later.

For now, hopefully I’ll be around more often than I have been, and if I recognize you from way long ago, great to see you again!

I used to be active 4-5 years ago as well, I don’t think I remember you from back then, welcome back thought. I was on hiatus for 3.5 years after kinja was rolled out.
