Assuming it is a thing, I will be at Denver Cars and Coffee (EDIT: Probably the Parker one?) on Saturday July 8th, the day after my birthday. If you see this little red Lexus with Nebraska plates, that’s me! Let me know if any of you want to meet up!

Also, I got the factory roof spoiler installed on the Lex Cruiser. I think it looks very appropriate.

you would be SHOCKED to find out how much that spoiler helps for dust.

I figured it was more for keeping the back window clear of dust and snow and water and then it was for #Downforce.

My wife’s GX doesn’t have one and even the tiniest drive on a dusty road turns it into a sand canvas. Where with mine, I could drive though the bull dust of Australia for a month and never need the rear wiper.

Have fun! I’d go, but I’ll be out of town that weekend.

I had no idea that is what this was for until now. Makes so much sense.

P.S. Watched some of your videos. Nice work.

Sounds fun! But like MonkeePuzzle said, need to specify which C&C. Lafayette, Parker, Boulder?

I like the CT200H. I wish they had made a sporty version. Drop in a hotter 2AR or something similar. Not that it would matter... my significant other hates hatches.

It seems like Parker is the only one that is 2nd Saturday of the month? First Saturday is July 1st, I’ll be there the 8th.

sounds good, not sure it’s up on their FB page as yet, but I could be up for such a thing, I’ve been there for a few C&Cs

Yep, sounds about right. I’ve been to the Parker C&C a few times. Parking is somewhat limited, but I’ve always managed to snag a spot. Get there early if possible.

Yup. I wouldn’t be in the show, obviously, but I’m assuming there’s spectator parking somewhat close by.

I’ll put it on my calendar!

Not taking the 100? I guess 13mpg really adds up.

That is precisely why. If we assume I would just drive to Denver and back and not drive an inch once I got there, and if we assume gas is $2.20 a gallon (it’s more), the CT would cost about $60 in gas for the round trip. The LX would cost about $150.

Not sure yet if I can make it. Let’s also try to get you flying while you’re here.

If I have time, sure! I’ll be there the evening of the sixth through the 10th at noon. I will be with my mom and brother for most of it.

If I’m able to make it - keep an eye out for a clapped-out “green” Dakota making a lot of noise, but not a lot of power :\

I just headed over to watch the cop try to ticket the military truck parked in the field, I’m walking back towards the Lotuses.
