Rep Power: 365 Saying "buh-bye" to the 'vic.
Never thought me and Curt would be seeing this day so soon.
If the winter's are gonna be anything like this past winter, his car won't last a mile. Plus, it's getting up there in mileage and we just decided the time was right. Right now, we're looking at the Chevy Tahoe's and Avalanche's. I'm helping him out with some of the down payment (probably over $2000) and also with the monthly payments.
We'll still be coming to the meets and hanging out with you guys, we just won't be pimpin the 'vic. We'll be rollin' up in the Tahoe sittin on 24's. lol J/P
The official burial of the 'vic won't be for probably another 3-4 months, but in the mean time we're converting it all back to stock. I miss the old girl already and she's not even gone! But there's no way we can keep the car and get a truck, too. Sucks.

Rep Power: 365 Yeah. It does look pretty nice. And that's what sucks the worst. Just when it's looking it's best, is when we're getting rid of it. LoL. But like I said, we'll still be out and about with everyone. Nothing is gonna stop us there.

Rep Power: 365 Such a sad, sad day, Nate. I don't wanna get rid of it now that I really think about it. I feel like telling Curt to just take everything he's got for sale off the market and keep the damn car and just save for a truck and get it next year.
Quick. Someone start a "Save-The-'Vic" fund. FAST!

Rep Power: 0 Sorry guys, it is true. I am going to get a truck and I need to sale the car. So if you guys know anyone, give me a call. It's in great condition. But like Cat said, we will still be meeting up and hanging out all the time....only in a big ole' monster truck.

Rep Power: 309 you know, havin an SUV doesn't really help during the winter. heavier/larger doesn't always mean better traction in that weather. But it's always nice to see above everyone, and have a roomier ride.
have fun!

Rep Power: 0 Oh I know that it doesn't always help but it does help to be heavier, but not always bigger. But I need to have a vehicle that I can get to work and not have to worry about using my time or getting in trouble.
My car is lowered and has a bodykit so therefore my car is only about 4-5 fingers off the ground in the front.
In a couple of years though my Fiancee and I are going to get a civic or something to hook up and have it like my car was. we will be able to join the civic crew again, and come to the meet with a civic.

Rep Power: 365 PSH. We're not missing the MA Meet for nothin'!
We're comin' in the civic, we just won't be leaving with everything we have on it when we roll in. We're selling his kit to someone that's gonna be there.

Rep Power: 0 Yeah, Curt. I'm in the same boat man. I'm done with my vic and as soon as I find a truck that I want I'm trading it in. The damn thing is pissing me off. My right door is screwed because of idiots in parking lots, and the rest of the car is just too small. I drove a jeep for 6 years and now I need that height back. Took my car to the cabin this past weekend and it hardly made it past the tree that my girlfriend had to push out of the way. The truck I want would have gone over it. Good luck finding yours.
