One thing I did not mention about this trip:

We were about ready to exit Springfield to I-44 in heavy traffic. When the light turned green, I rolled (the exhaust note was likely louder than the typical car in that area) - so did the guy behind me. Then the person in front of me stopped. I slowed to <5 mph.

That's when the guy behind me bumped us. Got out the car, asked Eric to call home, and checked for damage. To my surprise, there was none (other than the previous bumper job I got in a parking lot - I think vbmarcus may be the only person who saw this on our last Hills run).

The guy offered all personal info, but I declined due to the apparent lack of damage.

Whew!
Glad no damage occurred

It's always a good idea to take the information just in case.

Only 10% chance of precip according to weather.com just cold, cloudy, & windy. NOT a weekend to go topless

Congrats on the new ride - still working on that idea ourselves

Anyone else find time to wash today?(your car ) I am daily driving the S now since my 2nd car is being used by my GF's daughter. I had to dump a bucket of hot water on the hose, even though it was 50 today. I used some Raggtop protectant on the top and Plexus'd the rear window for the first time too.

The only thing that sucks is that the Plexus made the inside of my car smell like a urinal soap cake
