My current vehicle, or 'wheels' as you may call them, is a Colnago CLX 3.0. It is a high-performance Italian road bike, mainly carbon fiber; her 'avionics' are a Garmin 705 GPS cycle-computer, and range is dependant on gatorade, caffeine gels, and lactic acid :wink: . Weight is 18.3 pounds as pictured, although those wheels are metal and quite heavy, I think I could drop the weight down by a pound or two if I had the lighter stuff...

At this time I could have my permit, and my license in June, but I've been too busy to do that...

Here is the vehicle I am going to get the next 2-3 weeks. At the moment I am driving a simplier version of this sort of vehicle, but now I will get this one. This is the 'best' you can get(the electrical wheel chairs Ferrari for Norwegian's, hihi). Here in Norway is the speed limit 9.9 kilometers per hour(but when downhill it goes a bit faster). I am also so fortunate to get it from the goverment, Norway is a great country to be handicaped in(even if it is a hell sometimes, many stores have this nice little step up to the store from the sidewalk, a great hindrance for wheelchairs and something normal walking persons do not think about, at least did I not gave that a thought when I was an upwalking person(now I am that lazy that I have to sit all the time, yes I have got that comment and could not more than laugh)). Anyhow, this vehicle cost almost like a small car, and we got them for free here in this country(well, I have to deliver it back if I die or become able to walk again, it is the goverment who own it, but I get a new one if it breakdown or get stolen). Here it is, my own 'Ferrari':

Used to drive an '03 and '07 MINI Cooper S... Loved them to death, but one day woke up and just wanted something a tad bigger...

So I got an '08 Ram 1500 5.7L, I'm really enjoying it!

I'm driving a 93 GMC Safari with only 260,000 KM on the engine and transmission. There's plenty of life left in the engine but the body is really starting to show it's age. It's almost time for a new car/van/truck. I'm thinking a MG. It's such a pilot's car :D

I was able to find the Twighlight Blue MICA RGB and applied it to an RV-7 paintscheme because the RV is kind of like a Miata with wings :).
