Wish that era GTO's had more doors. The Fiance really likes them, but has "baby-planning-madness" and won't consider another car without 4-doors :( :( Otherwise we'd have already bought one!

You haven't even finished up the wedding planning madness.

You did teach me there are 2 wedding invitations though, "Save the date" then the real invitation.

Not that you have things in the wrong order though. But 5+ yrs later of hanging out on syty board your still not an owner.

DOBREAK has test driven both suggestions. Thought the caddy was bit low quality, G8 bit high price.

I am fairly certain he has test driven fiance also.

So his wedding is sept, how many months prior to or after do we see a mini dobreak?

We went and test drove the G8's. We REALLY REALLY liked it. The only problem is the $33k price tag. There was ONE on the lot that had hail damage repaired on it ($750 worth :roll: ), and they had that one marked down to like $25,750 or something with less than 500 miles on it. We would've rolled that one home if it hadn't had the RED interior. Neither her or I could get past that. Just didn't look right in there. Oh well, we'll hang out and wait a bit longer I suppose until they hit the used market.

Don't take this the wrong way, but are you really in a position to be handing out relationship advice? We buy cars and keep them it seems. Hers is 10 years old, mine is 9 years old, and the Yukon is about 2 years old. I'm sure we'll have kids within the next 7 years, so I can see why she's planning ahead.

Jeremy and I were just discussing me not being an owner yet yesterday. One day those little dobreak's are gonna as "dad did you ever have anything as fast as Uncle Jeremy's truck?", and I'll have to sadly answer "Nope".......I'm working on finding something to keep up, just not sure how soon I'll get it :(

I give it another year past the wedding before the impending birth announcements go out. She thinks it'll be longer, but I doubt it.

No advice on that end from me, I know my bounds most of the time.

How about jeremy and I go in and buy you the ole pickup truck for your wedding? It might not be fast, but it sure as hell has given you more laughs than any syty has.

GTO belonged to the founder and adminstrator of LS1GTO.com - ironically a friend of Bdubb from back in the day.
