Sold the '02 Red L and picked up a brand-new beige Jaguar 'vert ..

Well L commoners!

Since moving to the more cultured and monied circles of North Dallas/Turtle Creek, I've decided to "step-up and step-off"...

Ta ta...and enjoy!

Just kiddin' here...

Elaine and I were partying in T/C this weekend and hung out with "Uncle Phil" and enjoyed Sunday afternoon with the Dallas Philharmonic.

BTW, I'm a "good-ol'" boy from OK that enjoys his deer-hunting, Ls, etc and has friends in "low-places".

"Suzy" is downstairs in-service and isn't going anywhere !

The XKR is one of my favorite cars. Now they come with a 6 speed auto and a 4.2 with 400 HP. 20" wheels & Alcon 6 piston brakes.

my mom has the same car in blue, I love driving that car!

The guy next to our office just got a new XJR!!! Talk about hauling the family around huh, he won't let me play with the blower though and crank up the boost on it, HEHEHEHE. I told him I could get him an easy 50 more hp out of it but he doesn't want more power. what kind of person wouldn't want more power!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah! We didn't know exactly what rig that was (HP/TQ) but started checking it out. The owners and their photog. cruised out and asked if we wanted our pics taken in it.

Pretty cool! Gotta' love the more friendly people down south!

My Dad's toy is a '90 XJS convertible. Even with the V12 it's not all that quick, but is very smooth (think refined power). The car has about 25,000 miles on it, but is starting to get a bit tempermental in it's old age- kind of like Dad actually.

Yeah! It was a pretty cool car.

The friend I went there to party with has a new Z3 'vert and a new Mini-Cooper (yellow-white with a Texas state flag motif on the sun-roof). I drove the Z3 on a beer-run...it certainly wasn't an L! haha...

I've driven my friend's black Gaelendawagen (sp?) also. That was NICE!
