#1: This GT-R Track Edition that was sharing the hotel parking lot with us. Had Missouri temporary tags on it, and I guess the owner was driving home and made a stop here.
#2: We went to dinner at this delicious Mexican restaurant, easily in my Top Five, in this really sketchy part of Des Moines. Like, “adjacent grocery store had a security guard,” sketchy. Outside of the restaurant say this new Z06, and it only reinforced my belief that white on black is the best color combination for the Z06.
#3: OK, hear me out. This 2008 Jeep Patriot came free to the current owners. I’ll tell the full story in a separate post, but to cut it short, acquiring this Patriot was a struggle. Dog piss, the FBI, a shady lending house, Chrysler themselves, a breathalyzer company, DMVs in three states, a former house renter, and over $500 in Redbox fees are all pivotal parts to the interesting history of this otherwise unimpressive Jeep Patriot.

Way to bury the lede. I’m going to assume this is the only time I will ever want to know more about a Patriot over a GT-R

Pretty much.

It took over 15 minutes for the story to be told to me, and it was properly crazy. But other than some processing, registration, and title fees, they got this Patriot for free.

YO!!! Neat, I’ve compared them to Corvette wagons. No thanks, don’t have the cash and don’t want another TrailBlazer. Will

I honestly figured you wouldn’t, but saw one and figured I’d share. How’s your Trailblazer doing?

It’s alive, or alive as a vehicle can be. It’s I’m good shape overall, it just needs a new stereo system. I shit on it way more than I should, as it is a free vehicle. It’s getting gold wheels soon.
