MY RATING: 10.00

My Tahoe is "King of the Road." Plenty of power, big and tall, comfortable with all of the bells and whistles that you could get in 2004. Nice stereo with 6 CD changer, heated leather 8 way power seats, remote starter. Only mod: Pin stripes, which need freshening. I recently got a show and go car thanks to WheelsTV...a 2004 magnetic red metallic Corvette convertible with mild mods: lowered, Borla mufflers, Hurst short throw shifter for the six speed tranny, ZO6 brake vents, Clarion stereo, nav, video. It is the only 2004 convertible with a factory installed white top. A real work of automotive art!

I live and breath automotive television and video. I have an enormous car...video collection with some cars so rare that they will never be seen again in public...like Bertone's BAT cars. Thousands of videos, most that either I or my team at WheelsTV shot. I am married and live on a lake near WheelsTV's US headquarters.

All kinds of rides from tuners to low riders, muscle cars, classics, you name it. I really enjoy shooting live events...everything from burnout contests to beauty contests.

I also like to load my Tahoe with gear and head out to Maine for a few days with my wife. There is nothing better than heading out for a road trip with the music up and adventure awaiting at every turn!

I play in a rock band, The Men Who Pause. Basically, all forms of rock and roll. Some originals. We do a party now and then but mostly play once a week just to air out our instruments and voices and feel good. In season, I enjoy going out on the lake in my Glastron power boat and watching the sunset.

Thanks!  I loved the Ferrari up on the lift because it begged to be photographed against the blue sky.


 


A great event!

Hey, I saw your comment on my blog, and don't worry, at some point I will point to myself as a young aggressive driver as a nussance of the road. I am picking one  topic per week.

I had actually been talking to Collin about the blog when I overhead Mike ranting about someone on the road and realized that after I go through many different sources of angst of the commute, I think I am going to do a case study on Mike and his road rage. We can record his mannerisms in traffic, I could narrate. It would be a great way to bring the traffic blog full circle!

Hey Jim,

After you've logged in, you'll be brought to your main account page. Click on the settings tab at the top, then click on the Profile Settings link - this is where you can update your profile. I can assure that most users of sites like MySpace and Facebook (younger audience) will get the hang of the site quickly.

I think we should add a virtual site tour to help beginners get familiar with the site. This can be in a video which highlights steps to get around the site and become familiar with it.

I'm also going to add another box to the my account page which shows every account link a user has available. This will put more information in front of the user right away, and will be easy to find.

Hey Jim, this is a really cool site, I'm sure it's going to explode with members and all types of auto enthusiasts by next year. Great work on the site, very easy to navigate around. I forgot about the Ventura Highway, might have to add that one to my list. I'd like to hear the full story sometime about the 405 at 2am in the vette! :)
