Air freshener.....I know it's hard to beat the fresh air of the adirondacks....maybe I'll put it in the truck or Karla's civic; they get driven with the windows up.

A BRZ is a nice little present. Did you set a little tree on top of it so it was actually under the tree? My grandson and granddaughter and myself got an XBOX one s and a Thrustmaster wheel. I downloaded Forza 6 and found that the first racing hurdle was to race at Limerock and one of the choices for cars was a S2000CR! The graphics are amazing. I don't have the wheel hooked up yet, so using the controller to drive reminds me of monkeys and footballs. The details of the car being being bashed in on all 4 sides is quite realistic. I can only get better!! The grand kids have so many electronics it is no big deal to them.

HA!rry

Mark - I have that Ryobi too. Very handy tool.

Harry - the cars have been parked in storage otherwise I'd probably park it next to a tree. I've heard good things about Forza. Keep us posted on your gaming prowess. I did get to drive a Focus RS for about an hour at our local autocross site. A friend purchased one and was nice enough to let me try it. Drift mode is very cool and the car is easy to drive.

Jake - no one buys me car stuff either (except for track time gift certificates). Just wondering what people got or ordered for themselves.

Levi - do the fresheners look like this?
