WARNING: do not try this at night, since it shuts off the headlights!!!

it relates cuz all the younger people in Jeeps wave at me but many of the adults lack the waving knowledge...
and second... no matter what we come up with... the snobs of Michigan Xfire owners will not do it... cuz they are @H0l3s
BUT whatever we decide count me in for sure!! right now I do the little two finger lazy peace sign salute... not the peace sign cuz they are kinda connected ... I do the same for the jeep! ... unless I pull up next to a Xfire owner then I look like a rabid raccoon clawing at the window begging for a response... :lol: Which I've yet to ever get anything ... It's times like that that I'm happy I dont have a firearm... :lol:

Maybe you just don't have the right touch with other Croffire owners!!!!
Today I saw a Blaze Red Crossfire with temporary plates (less than 1 month old) in traffic. When I pulled up alongside, a very cute young lady was smiling, waving, and giving me the OK sign. I waved back. She definitely had the "Crossfire Smile" on her face.....
That is only the second Crossfire I have seen in Youngstown. The other was black.

Ohio isnt Michigan... you people are always happy because you guys have found the invention of the automobile :lol: :lol:
Sorry.. I'm used to ripping on Ohio often because of well... I'm from Michigan... we make fun of you like we make fun of Canadians...
It's not the fact that its Michigan owners... its the fact that its the area where most of the Xfires are owned... they are coming from areas where people really have no barring on money at all... they could careless about anyone... and anything except their money

However since I couldn't see if they were on or not while driving, and can't speak to any mods on the SLK i saw do it, I can't say for sure if he did it because he saw mine or did it because of some way he had modified his. I did flip the switch back and forth and waved, I saw his standing lights flicker back and forth which I ***umed was in response.
Whether an SLK is setup different, or modified to be able to do it, I think it's cool. I'd like to be able to do it with a Crossfire.

In Ohio we actually have indoor flush toilets too!!!!!
Big deal - cars were first assembled (not invented!) in Michigan.
But where did they guys come from that INVENTED powered flight?????
So there.....
HAHAHAHAHA
And as one of my Canadian buddies asked me to tell you: Take off, eh?
:lol:

1st actual powered flight of a heavier than air craft - Wright Brothers - OHIO
DaVinci designed and built a glider that injured the pilot and he abandonded ever trying it again. He also did some drawings of what some say might be the beginnings of a helicopter, but I don't think that would classify as being the inventor.
At least that is what I remember reading. I may have to do some research on those to verify it.

Isn't it also disputed that some Frenchie actually flew BEFORE the Wright brothers Kitty Hawk adventures???
