i love dogs... but dog hair in my MINI? hmmmm... as it is, i've trained my 3 nephews ranging in ages from 6 to 13 never to touch the MINI! of course, i'm half-joking with them. (okay, i'm not joking and the 6-year-old doesn't listen anyway)

Yeah, that's a good point. My dogs wouldn't be allowed in my MINI (they have their own car... an old Volvo wagon beater). Ok, so they're WAY too big to fit in a MINI anyway. On second thought, that would just make me want to try to stuff them in to see if they could fit afterall! Or maybe I'll just buy them each a MINI of their own.

Ahhh yes good old dog hair. I don't have the problem w/ the headliner as I have a cabrio but the carpet does catch quite a bit.

I wouldn't trade riding w/the top down with my pup enjoying the breeze for anything. Why have a Mini if you can't actually enjoy it, touch it, be in it? You might as well put a big see-thru box around it so everyone can look but don't touch, how fun . Dog hair vacuums right upit's no biggie

remain.

So the only place to get Prima products is online... I am 18 with no credit cards, etc, so I cant really get things off the internet without bugging the folks to get it for me

Back in the dark ages when I was a kid in a small town, EVERYTHING cool that you could possibly want wasn't for sale locally but was available via MAIL ORDER. Fill out a form, mail it in with a MONEY ORDER you bought at the post office, and in 2-3 weeks your wonderful stuff would arrive via parcel post. I had more spy gear than James Bond thanks to the ads in the back of Boy's Life magazine...

I betcha Heather takes money orders. No credit card or bank account required... you'd just add a couple of days of time to mail it to her...
drop her an email or PM and ask. The Prima stuff is worth the effort IMHO.

We certainly do accept money orders and checks too (although checks have to clear before we can ship... just to be safe)!

You can just email or PM me (or call) with your order and we can go from there. No need for credit cards or parents.

Thanks - I think he has turned the corner and seen the light (shine).
Old dogs (and old hot rodders) can learn new tricks.
I had to kind of persuade him to wait until after X-Mas to order more stuff from you, didn't want him to ruin his Coopersport/Prima present. No risk of him seeing this on the internet - he swears the internet is just a fad and so he's not learning it.
Gosh - you should probably head home with this storm and all. Unless you and Nick just live upstairs from the shop.

Yay for your pops! Slowly, but surely.

Yeah, we realized we needed to leave the store or we wouldn't be able to leave until tomorrow!! We left right around the time you posted. And no, we don't live above the store. LOL We often get that question though. We live not even 5 minutes away so it's just a quick jaunt (except today of course!).

And yes, Kenchan... I'm glad you ordered yesterday and not today! We were not able to ship anything today due to the blizzard. Maybe tomorrow, but we'll have to see!

Hey, you hit 5th gear - congrats!
If you and I got together added our posts up and multiplied by 10 we would still be shy of kenchans.

I was thinking about going straight to the buffer. I need to watch OG's DVD again to see how to handle this.

I bet you a soda that he will be here more than just tonight.
(hope he brought a change of undies).
