[B]I hate to grow feathers and start to cluck, but the ole minivan is looking like it may be the love express to the Big Easy.

 

I valeted the s one time at the Marriot (only weeks old at the time). I tipped the guy up front and asked him to make sure it was parked so as not to get dents. They treated it well and did not put miles on the car.

 

Well... if you feel better bringing the shaggin wagon instead of the S2K then go for it!

I really think that a class hotel like the one you are staying at would be fine.

When you buy a car you can either keep it or drive it, but you can't do both.

When I got my dings etc... it took a while for me to get over them. Now at 67,000 miles I just call it character

 

Hey what restaurant puts the cones around the car??? I might need to take a girl there..

 

lol... i've actually parked mine at a couple of places where they've put me in the 'front' spot... feels pretty cool down in the gut when it happens...

they did that at the BR Sullivans once.

 

LOL----Shaggin' Wagon--- Can't wait to call it that in front of my wife. She's a good ole "Southarn Bap-test Gal" but she will get a kick out of it.

Man, don't tell anybody, but priceline.com is da bomb for making hotel reservations.

This is the part where I bitch, whine, moan and then with a look of utter resignation, realize what you say is true.

Its just well, gee Wally, She ain't even got 2000 mi. on her yet. She's in pristine condition and all.

 

If I can valet the Viper in New Orleans and not worry about it, you guys can do the S without any.

I pulled into the valet at the grand a month or so ago. You should have seen the valets face......my buddy with me yelled "GO FERRIS BUELLER!!!!"

That is my $.02.....and no, I won't let Mark Valet it!!!!

my favorite..... the perfect tricycle drift..... our car can do this one too with the stock swaybar.

 

Got back about 2:00 pm today. Yep! Took the S2K. Yep! Worried about it the whole time I was there. Yep! The valet parked it. Nope! Didn't leave a mark on it. Wasn't any way I could park it. I did do the post it note thing, with the mileage on it. The valets were very nice and professional, my concern was basically, that they were so busy, that they would make a careless mistake. They didn't. No one will ever care for your property as much as you do yourself. Yet, the generous tip I gave them did seem to help. After that first door ding is there, it won't matter so much.
I did see two S2Ks in N.O. A yellow one driving thru the Quarter yesterday. A white one, top up, on I-10 today. Also saw a Hummer Limo., thought that was pretty cool.
