Daddy & jaywg

I had to start a new thread cuz the old one keeps gettin' buried.
Did you guys find the "secret compartment" yet? I dyin' to know if you found any goodies in there (ie: owner's manual, panties, secret stash that someone forgot about, a million dollars in unmarked $100's, etc.). Maybe you couldn't find the gas flap release and ran out of gas in the middle of nowhere with no internet cafe for hundreds of miles. Waitin' to hear from you guys. Good luck.

What I found.....

All mine contained was about 50 of the previous owner's business cards, a CCR CD, a pair of cheap ugly sunglasses, and his old hair brush....I felt like Geraldo opening Capone's secret vault.......

I recently found the secret glove box. And I am sorry to report nothing was found. It had a few nasty gooey stains (not what you're thinking!) But it was a great find, now I can keep my crap in there. But still no manual...guess I'll have to pick one up somewhere.

In my used 2003, nothing. In my new 2007, I was surprised to find a wheel lug lock kit - then really happy since they had actually installed it for me so I now had the key!

The time is now 3:08am and I am headed out to the garage to find "Texas"...

Good thing my girlfriend is in Florida so she can't see what this car has done to me.

"Good thing my girlfriend is in Florida so she can't see what this car has done to me." - HAH my wife actually talked me into both of my cars (the first one because we both loved it from the first showroom "sit-in" and the second because it was a smoother ride for her as passenger). Now she laughs at me for spending time on this site... But she still loves the new ride...
As for the first question, the "secret compartment" is easily reached from the drivers' seat, if that helps...

.....and time. I found it!
I cannot believe it took me that long to find it....I was an MP and it still took me that long! No owners manual....found some old paper work from previous owner's purchase of Yokohama tires and some S2KCA cards from the central Indiana Local Chapter though.....Jay

Dunno Jay . . . most'a the "P"s I've known weren't real big on findin's stuff.
Jus' makin' sure that if you ran afoul'uv 'em once, you'd go through great measures to not wind up on their scopes again, know whut I mean?
Okay, back ta business: Jay found it in'a early AM'a 2nd November.
I've got either Bobby 'r Doc winnin' the pool.
Anybody got their tally sheet better kept'n mine?
Who won?
All that aside Jay, many happy miles a ridin' to you n' yours.
I think findin' the "secret compartment" (Dunno how that "secret" stuff happened) brings you into the site's "inner-circle".
Don't wanna get all Indiana Jonesish on ya's, but now we godda find the inner-circle.
Aaay! Si started this stuff off with 'iz "Say somethin' about the poster above", n' S2ook introduced us to "Word Association". They're both flyin' pretty well.
I figure it's only a matter'a time before we have a site "Treasure Hunt" with clues push-pinned up in oud'a the way places on the site walls.
Be well.
