Congrats, Loretta! They look like neat lil cars- I was looking at getting one for my wife a while back- I'd be curious to hear how you like it in a few months......

Congrats on the new rig. 4 and a half years into purchasing a reliable vehicle after a long series of TERRIBLE cars, I still smile every time I turn the key and the car starts. Simple things...hope you have many miles of smiling in front of you with your new toy.

Very nice!

Kwbyron has one of those as his dive rig, and it worked very well. A nice large ribbermaid tub in the back and you're good to go.

Too funny! :laughing3: It actually does have more room inside than the average sub-compact, but yeah, I'll have to see just how much I can cram into it.
Easy on the Geo. We used to argue about who hated that car more, and thus occupied Pez couldn't be as mean to me. Ahh, I miss those days.... Loretta, congrats on the new ride!

Congrats Loretta!

Now you have to come down to Eugene and dive in the area more often. I have been diving some new lakes around here and there are some other awsome dives that I have discovered. Besides, you have to do a nother Clear lake dive.

Again Congrats on the wheels
The size doesn't matter, it's how you use it! That's what they say any ways.
You use it to dive so how can you go wrong.
Want to go dive in Oregon. I can help. Biginner or experienced it doesn't matter.
want to do some underwater photography I will help if I can. I'm a dive Junky. Cold or hot.
I spear fish, night dive, deep dive. I do it all. Contact me.

I'm excited about taking it on it's first road trip to Seattle, and breaking it in with a load of dive gear!

What??? No Scubalance/Diveulance/PADI Wagon? :dontknow:

I'm not sure but I think your mileage is only 28 MPG better than mine. :evil4:

So I am assuming we will see ya a bit more often? =D>

If I know Loretta my guess is that all fuel savings will initially be diverted to the "Salvo fund". \:D/
