Derek! Didd you change your IM screenname?

Where did you go? My girlfriend flew out to Detroit in June to meet me and we went on a 3 day trip staying in Toronto, Montreal (also visited Ottawa) and then Acadia Park in Maine. I think it was about 1800 miles total, but I didn't really keep track.

All the positve feedback concerning BMWs has only fed my intense desire for ownership of one. Not sure if I'd opt for the 5 series though; I'm more a fan of the 3 series.. in particular, the 330xi.
