No idea when we will do the run. We have other cruises planned as well, so just give me a shout, and I'm sure we can put something together. What part of TN will you be in?

Radar Detector FTW!!!
I need to put the one I have back into the Z. The car seat matches the colors scheme of my Z (black and silver), that's why I liked it. They had others as well.

+1 I hope he was just joking though. Albeit I have seen some idiots racing with their children in the back seat.
My woman would KILL me and my life would end rather abruptly.
PS....we ordered it, when it gets here, I'll put up some pics of it...lol.

AHHH!!!! DAMN IT!!! Woman just emailed me, after speaking with the seat tech, that this seat is for Forward facing only... 
The site did not mention this before she ordered it. So, now we have to return the freaking seat, cause he is not old enough to sit facing forward right now... I'm ____ed!

She looked up some more seats, and it said that Recaro was suppose to be coming out with 2 Rear facing seat at the end of Aug. and early September. But we need the seat for this weekend because the grandparents were taking him for the labor day weekend to FL. (House all to ourselves... ) Well, guess we have to get some crappy seat (meaning non-Recaro) from somewhere else. I'm

They killed us with a restock fee of $50 bucks! It was half way in route, so the clerk just put a return status on it, so it would not come all the way here. But still got charged $50 damn bucks for a restocking Fee!
