In that spirit, controlled burnouts in selected parking lots leaving tire tracks.

(Not responsible for legal action taken against you, (or motoring citations) only burnout on private property with consent of the owner)

 

If he's been peeping at me, then he must spend some time in Los Angeles, La Jolla, Tucson, Sedona, Santa Fe, Amarillo, Dallas, El Paso, Houston, New Orleans, the Florida Panhandle, BurningHam, Alabama, and Robbinsville, NC.

 

^^^^
No wonder he's not had time to check back in!!!

 

We can have a MINI event! That will bring the public into the search. No one can ingnore a dozen or so MINIs!!!
Maybe we can have magnetic door signs made.

 

I think it maybe time for an all out search. After all he hasnt checked in after the vacation. And has anyone seen him buying dog food? Those poor dogs must be starving.

 

My eyes began to tear up a little bumble when I saw your sig. The compassion that the MINI community extends to one of their own is a model for the rest of society.
I was hoping that the dogs had been kenneled so care and feeding will not be an issue. The bill on the other hand may be.
I have decided to put a positive spin on this and hope that Tyler and his girl found such happiness while on vacation that they have elected to extend the duration. I still find this notion in direct conflict with the responsible tone in all of Tyler's postings - I just can't believe he would leave his dealership in a lurch during the debut of the R56. Perhaps Tyler has a twin that is filling in for him while on vacation.
Oh BTW, I don't need a fellow NAMer's disappearance as an excuse for a MINI event. Let's just do it! (and MBE Tyler will show)

 

I'm with you, Maybee (I'm definitely with you, not maybe with you).

In fact, I would like to throw out there for vote, the following decree:

If our young friend doesn't appear in the next couple of days (or months), the next MOTD shall be forever known as The Tyler Wallace We Hardly Knew Ye Memorial MINIS on The Dragon In The Year Two Thousand and Eight.

I can't even type that without crying like a baby....

Sorry, I have to go now.

 

 

Don't give up hope..If we work together real hard I bet we can find him! When we do, we could hold an event at MOTD and present him safe and sound to the rest of the Mini community!!!

 

Maybe he was kidnapped.. anyone see a ransom note?

 

I did see something about Twinkies on another thread...

 

I imagine he's fine. I mean if he was really missing, wouldn't we have seen him on Without a Trace or CSI Denver or something by now? He was probably just embarassed when he saw that no one, I mean NO ONE else uses their real first and last name around here. And then doubly embarassed when he saw how much anxiety he caused when he quit posting in his embarassment over using his real name.

Come on back, Tyler! We'll do our best to forget that "Tyler" stuff and refer to you by your real real name, UWT&T!

 

I called ASkMINI and they had no answer as to where Tyler was. HMMM, they have been so helpful in the past...

 

Maybe some of those lucky people that got the RFIDs for the billboards can change it to say "Have you seen Tyler?" when they drive by.

 

I SPOTTED TYLER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Excellent idea.
I prefer to not think of the remote, though scary scenario that Tyler has been kidnapped. I went down that road when I imagined his girlfriend whacking him and it brought me nothing but angst. However, if his girlfriend is holding him in some dank hole in the basement of an abandoned house at the end of a dirt road up in the mountains where no one has any reason to visit ... OK I'm now concerned again. Maybe she is some kind of Hannibal Lecter type character and Tyler is being fatten-up for some future celebratory meal, damn we have to find him before it is too late!

 

And I bet she's one of those manipulators who presented it to him like it was a long get away and that he gets to eat and eat and eat and be happy and play video games and eat and think that he has the greatest girlfriend in the world.

But once he gets fattened up enough, she'll tie him down, raise the knife, and right before she bludgens out his last breathe, his poor heart will break while he wonders why he was lead down the path of deception.

Oh Tyler... We have to find him!!

 

You know that if 24 hours pass, and the missing person does not turn up, it usually spells the unthinkable...

Perhaps they should start dragging any nearby lakes.

 

No! No I say! Tyler is alive and well. I can feel it! I'm sure that he and his girl have just gone on a prolonged ski trip; they have sorted out their differences and are working the relationship that's all. Perhaps Tyler has even popped the question. OMG, a wedding would be totally cool especially at MITM in August on top of Mt. Evans at 14,000 at midnight.
Now what to get the happy couple - something MINI related would be appropriate.

 

wow!!!!!
Chuck, you need to be writing mystery novels!!!!

 

Where? More info....:impatient

 

Tyler's post count is now 3. He's here! Somewhere!

 

Be careful here and don't fall for this ploy. I bet his girlfriend is a genius scientist and she has made an exact replica of Tyler in cyborg form. Perhaps she really dug most of what Tyler could offer but decided to make a few tweaks and deletions by creating her perfect Tyler. Shellbell, did he have a slight oil smell about him or did he fail to use contractions? Or perhaps this is the body snatcher plot and this new Tyler is a pod person; everyone has to sleep sometime.
Still I'm hoping for the best but I think DNA testing is called for here before we just go off and announce Tyler's wellbeing.

Appears someone has stolen his password and posted while pretending to by Tyler. That post was WAY too long-winded to be him. The saga continues.

 

I just bought a 2007 Mini Cooper and discovered your forum. I should have done it the other way around but so it goes.

My choice was determined by a desire to find a vehicle that was fun to drive but also environmentally sound. This thing is much more exciting than a Honda Civic.

It's been enjoyable so far but the engine malfunction light came on at 340 miles so it goes back to the dealer today to see what's going on. I hope it turns out to be reliable since my wife gave ma a lot of grief about buying a "chick" car.
