The Maxima will be paid off soon and will be the daily driver. My Cobra will be my baby or beast, whichever way you want to look at it. I'm itching to race again. I used to street race......and I so miss it, but it's dangerous, so to the track I'll go.
As for TX, I was moving to the Dallas area. It was a move planned since October of 2007, but lots of stuff happened......car accident, broken wrist, surgery to put it back together. <sigh> Anyway, I'm tired of WI. Time to get to a warmer climate.

Our last two winters were horrible. I even got into two accidents for the first time since 1999. One, I did a 360 across 3 lanes of traffic on the freeway on black ice, but I didn't hit anything/anyone. Thank God! The other accident, I hit a damn curb and busted my lower control arm when the car took a right turn and kept going sideways across the damn street.
That settled it for me, plus I lived in Cali a long time ago and miss the weather, but wouldn't move that far west again. TX is perfect.

Oh, that's fine by me. Snow I can handle, heck I'm originally from NJ, and then we moved to WI. LOL I think I would actually miss it if it didn't get somewhat cold or snow, but in WI.......man, you're looking at subzero temps that drop as low as 40 below with the wind chill factor and snow measured in feet, not just mere inches.
