New from TX
 

just wanted to stop in and say hi from a jeeper. my girlfriend just ordered a 2010 Z and has been lurking here for a while and wanted me to check out the forum. i know alot about jeeps and hopefully will learn alot about the Z so i can help her out and we can both learn. anyway we are both very excited to get the Z and will end up taking alot of pictures of it. :tup:

id say the Z is a big improvement

Welcome aboard. Congrats on your g/f's purchase. Don't be surprised if you start to swap cars more often. LOL!

dude, how will she operate the windows with the switches on the doors? :rolleyes:

grats to her for the purchase, and to you for the gf with good taste :tup:

what part of TX?

:waitingonpics:

north austin. i wont have pics till we get it which will be sometime in january. we were hoping to get it right around xmas but she called the dealer asking what the ETA was and he said he would know 30 days prior to it being shipped from the factory and then said most likely early january. unless you meant of the girlfriend. thats not up to me thats up to her hahaha

yeah trust me, all the drooling fools here will be begging for those pics, but there's a thread for that.

sucks that it's taking that long to get the car. persimmon interior?

we are planning a meet in roundrock for the sunday after christmas...might want to stop by and meet a few of the locals (well, texans, maybe not really local, lol)

Check the "texas" section of the forums for details.

the burgers were good last time too :tup: won't be able to make it this time around though :shakes head:

Haha, well I guess I'll post now. Hi, i'm the g/f. Ordered a red touring, sport package, 6 speed and now waiting anxiously for it to come in.

hello "g/f" :hello: lol

kdo is gonna be your friend as far as reds in TX.

mad props on the 6mt :xmastup:

Thanks! I actually don't really know how to drive stick very well, although I've been able to practice a little on one of my step-dad's cars, but I'm not too worried, especially since it has syncrorev match on it.

the thing about driving a manual transmission isn't shifting gears from 1-2-3 etc. but to get going is the hardest part. syncro-rev doesn't help with that at all.

SRM makes down shifting unbelievably smooth and easy. shifting is still a lil blah for the first few on these girls. hey, at least is isn't a ford ranger lol. i hate kneeing myself in the chest to shift :p

my family movin to austin soon woo :D

ive lived in austin my entire life so im a little biased haha but it is a great place with alot to do

i've only stayed in austin for a total of like 3 days. 3 effin AWESOME days lol. helped that i went down there with 3 or 4 friends and new a fair amount of other ppl there. hell, that was the first time i ever blacked out. last time i did also. i don't recommend going that far, but it all ended up okay, so eff it :D

Congrats & Welcome! :tiphat:

Nice pics of the jeep too :tup:

welcome!:tup:
