Yeah, I’m a big fan of Tesla’s red. I wish BMW had something like that.
Mazda does a nice red, too.
Agreed. Also, the current red on the Chevy Colorado is lovely.
Congrats on the Tesla!

Yes, Mazda’s red is sexy. Very candy apple.

I was looking for something cheap, a little bigger than my sonata and AWD so I can pass it down to my son in a few years when he’s 16.
I was looking for a Highlander or Venza under $15k. Well I found out around here Highlander’s sell above blue book and they fly off the lots. The last one sold before I could get in my car to go see it. I found a Venza but the dealer strung me along and sold it while trying to set up a test drive..
I stumbled upon this 2012 Lexus RX 350. I didn’t want to like it but it’s in great shape with low miles for less $ than comparable Highlander’s. I took it to a Lexus dealer for inspection before I bought it and it came back with a clean bill of health. Vogue tires are ugly but they have most of their tread and ride smooooothe..
The V6 has some punch. Very happy with it. Not sure I’ll be able to give this to my son in 2 years…

I like those wheels. They remind be of the fan on a modern turbofan aircraft engine.
I hadn’t thought of that connection. Makes sense now. They’re called Uberturbines.

Personalized plates!
They aren’t really needed, as Ben’s preferences are pretty clear when you see him in person.

New to me scooter. R1200RT with 3,000 miles.
Saddlebags got scratched by shipping company, so need to get them painted while she’s in storage for the winter.

That bike looks like it’s begging for a long road trip. They’re sweet mile eaters.
