Day 3 with our MCS and all the stories (good ones only) that I have read on MCO are coming true.

My wife and I have been alternating taking the MINI to work, at least for the first week. On her first day, she got the standard "lines":
"Somebody stole your car and left a toy in your parking spot"
and "Chrysler makes it, right?"

This morning, we started with our usually IM chat, with:
Me: "How is your morning?"

Day 3 for me as well, captnjoe! You're right, it just keeps getting better.

I washed and waxed her today. I wanted to get some Rain Dance on the finish -- I have always thought that it does the best job. So easy to wash the little critter. I can reach to the center of the roof without having to stretch.

Also: My wife drove her for the first time tonight. She couldn't stop giggling. She's so pleased that her man got himself a cool car :smile: She was especially delighted at the way the interior lights fade up when you enter at night.

WHAT AN INCREDIBLY COOL VEHICLE!!
