I didn't know what I was missing

I didn't know what I was missing to fully Enjoy California until now: a convertible!

My wife's "namesday" (névnap) is coming up. And our first wedding anniversary, too. And we needed a 2^nd car anyways, so I signed a 39 months lease 60 months purchase deal on this baby:

The color you see has nothing to do with Photoshop or any other photo manipulating tool. This is how it came out of the camera! "race red"

It turned out to be a great gift, since she has nail polish in that color already. I saved another 5 dollars :)

But after we went through all the paperwork, and we could sit in the car, we opened the roof, and started cruising and then (while she was driving) I realized that this was the one thing I missed, and this is what California is all about. And I know why all the guys are sitting on the passenger seats of any convertible while the chicks are driving them: it is much more fun to sit in a baby like this then driving it. I love driving it, too, but I like my Dodge better. But it's fun feeling the warm breeze, and how I'm about to get sunburn, and just glazing all around! And don't forget the sky's always blue here! (Except for 4 days during the "winter" when it is "raining".)

And leasing a car can be cheaper then buying a used ("pre-owned") one. Which is crazy, and a very good thing!

And one note to Dodge: make a freaking convertible out of the Challenger, please! I'd have chosen it over the Mustang for sure! The Challenger is the only muscle car out of the three (Mustang and Camaro is the other two) that has no convertible version. And (at least to me) the coolest looking one. You could make millions out of all the folks living in Cali or in Florida! Get those saws out of the storage rooms and get rid of that roof!
