That’s it, the meet is canceled. If Devin can’t make it, nobody can.

I'll come with my daughter, she'll be two in October. I'll probably just do a lot of running around with her, but I'll come.

cute dogs? cute babies? but no Devin? I'm so conflicted!!

[narly_charley]

Don't let Devin bully you. Don't give in...

[navseal345]

That's ok, chew won't have his car done anyway.

I see your Celica ONCE and now you're not even coming. Pfft what the heck!? I might as well just show up in my Mazda or her Escape! At least the Escape has a turbo *not the good turbo engine*

[That97celica]

Count me in I'll be going to the meet

[narly_charley]

I could possibly be acquiring a 2005 Honda Odyssey from my wife's employers - for free.

Some general maintenance items needed, but it runs and drives perfectly fine. If only the wifey would be cool with me cleaning it up, selling it, and then picking up a Celica... I do miss owning one.

Good vans, except for the 5spd automatic trans is utter rubbish and the dark colored paints shed clear coat.

[cheela]

Good vans, except IT'S A VAN!

fixed it for ya.

Yeah, I'd just keep it as a third car (beater). It will nice for hauling things too. My dad said those transmissions are the first to go on them. It has some MAJOR creaking going on up front, thinking it's the outer tie rod. It has some rust and some paint peeling areas, but looks decent.

Yea, the trans goes bad and then the replacement goes bad. I think they may finally have it sorted out, but at one point the fix Honda implemented was to change how much the computer bumped line pressure on shifts and how it changed shift timing in relation to shifting times to engage the gears faster to reduce clutch wear once they began to shift a little slow. Well the side effect was that they were slamming stuff together and instead of the insufficient clutches taking the wear and the trans slipping because of that, the hard parts now took the wear and broke, which meant a trans rebuild was much more expensive.

That's too bad...

I can't stand the five speed trans in my ES330. I get to deal with the throttle/trans issue that results in jerking and shifting issues while at low speeds/stops.

Anyone want a 97 Paseo for $200? 118K miles, runs, drives, has engine light, needs rear brakes and gas tank, would need to be towed or trailered away due the rear brakes.

In for dogs

[Bitter]

Trying to make dogs happen. It means taking two cars though, but she has a GPS so it should be fine.
