I'm in Orlando, but no Av yet. Could be a year before I can purchase, but I will own one sooner than later.

Some people in Orlando need to be tagged because I see av's and ext's every day!

My userName is a little misleading, I work in Melboune but I'm usually in Orlando on the weekends.

I just got back from a week with the family in Orlando (diney world trip)............I'm from Colorado and I have no idea how you guys put up with all of that heat/humidity. I was sweating like a bleeding hog anytime I ever went outside...................either that or the freakin' monsoon rains were soaking me.

Well its like us going to CO in the winter and complaining about the cold.

Once you are used to something you just deal with it but when its something new its a shock.

And yes we do have real rainstorms here.....none of that sissy crap drizzle stuff for us!!

Fort Lauderdale ...

Mrowe8, that's what weeds out the faint of heart down here... not to mention the cockroaches, mosquitos, hurricanes, alligators, snakes, peacocks wandering around the yard screaming their head off, and other various and assorted wildlife and critters... Not to mention the cultural and demographic diversity :eek: The Miami area once again takes top honors for having the rudest drivers in the nation. Not bad for the number two automotive market in the country. I could tell you some stories... Like the 20-something female driver heading north on I95 the other day reading a book. Doing 45 in a 65, middle lane, weaving side to side... If I hadn't seen it with my own two peepers I wouldn't have believed it...
Anyway the summer weather is why it's rare to have the touristas during the summer. They usually wait for milder seasons. But, we thank you for your dollars.. Next time you come down this way, give a holler if you need something. OR just give a holler anyway.... :B:

Good point...kinda like when I visited beautiful Colorado I woke up every morning gasping for oxygen with a dry throat and bloody nose! What a beautiful state, though.

Just how people from the North (Michigan comes to mind) lie about how they get used to the cold, Floridians lie about how we get used to the heat/humidity. Hope you enjoyed your visit with my neighbor Mickey!

Chevy Kid,

I've noted a trend with you - you must be searching the board and hitting REALLY old stuff.

When it's 2 years old, not really much of a need to bring it back to life by posting in that thread. Many of the posters in it may be long gone from the site by now as well.

;)

I'm in Tampa, till monday going back to IL, I met Steve in Boca Grande he has a real good looking white Z66. I saw his ambers I had to stop and Shoot the Breeze for few minutes. I passed a green Z66 with a set of spinner Wheels on I-75 going to Tampa saturday but he didn't have any ambers,
