Howdy, y'all. I do a little free-lance writing now and then, and I wrote this piece about what it's like to be a PTC owner.

And hey, no offense to people still waiting...

Great Article!!! Boy can I relate to your descriptions and how this car is much more than just a car. Nice picture of you and that taupe cruiser too! I must agree that the PT Cruiser enthusiasts seem to be a bunch of very nice people and I have thoroughly enjoyed reading the posts of fellow enthusiasts and learning so much about my cruiser. Lots of us have taken up the hobby of customizing our cruisers and it is great. Best of luck and I hope that you get waves from drivers who are not lucky enough to be cruisin'

Thanks, OST. I have yet to customize, but I'm getting strong urges. If only I didn't have three jobs, an old house that needs constant attention, and a 1-year-old!

Great Article!!! I know how you feel! I will expand on my thoughts later. We need to have a Kentucky Cruise-In. I will offer to set one up, if anybody wants to. I live in Northern Kentucky, and my office is a block and a bridge from Riverfront Stadium in Cincinnati. My office is by the Courthouse and I think if we play our cards right we can take over the surrounding streets. What do you think there Derby Cruise? Steve

A cruise sounds like a grand idea.

Of course, bein' as we're Kentuckians, we'd have to wear our coonskin caps and drive barefoot and bring our moonshine so all them Yankees up in Sin-sa-natta would recognize us!

Great article! Good pic and sharp writing.

(Here lies another example of the PT experence doing unusual things. A Hoosier praising a Bluegrasser. What am I going to do with all those Ky jokes now?)
