We left at 8 in the morning and drove to the North Hollywood Metro station. For future reference, the station is on Lankershim, not Laurel Canyon. So I messed up, at least I knew which trains to take. Brenda and Mike got a little frieked out about taking the subway. They live such sheltered lives. The red line connects with the blue line which has a stop at Pico just a block from the convention center. Once inside we made a beehive dash to the restrooms, then to the west showroom for the first set of cars. Our primary reason for going was for Sue to check out what kind of car she would like.
Okay, so maybe the Ferarri is not a realistic car. Sue would really look hot in one of these but we need a family car with a back seat.
I think Sue would like this car except it says "King Taco" and she is the Queen. Also no room for me. One car she wanted to look at was the Honda.
Okay, wrong Honda. She wanted to look at the Honda CRV. This is Honda's concept car.
Ah, we found the right car. Sue gave it good look over.
Sue, Brenda, and Mike gave this car a good look over too. I think she is having fun.
One car for Sue, one car for me, one car for Sue, one car for me.........
Okay, two for me. This is the car I want, the new Camaro. My first car was a 1968 Camaro and they have revitalized the feel of the old muscle car. Dodge did the same thing with the Challenger which is my second choice. These are real cars, not like a Lamborgini or Ferarri. Besides, those real expensive cars do not do well when they crash, just ask Brenda.
Another car for Sue. After a while all these mid-size SUV's started to look the same for me. Notice in almost every picture with Sue she has a car door open. Interesting!
The Camaro look pretty hot in black too. Such a tough choice. Maybe a black one for me and a silver one for Sue. Then we can switch each week. For lunch I had a hot dog that was wrapped in bacon. Surprisingly very good. We hopped on the subway to go home and just like last year, we got on the Purple line instead of the Red line. It appears the two lines share the same track and alternate. A nice gentlement on the train alerted us to the problem and we got off, took the next train and made it back to North Hollywood. First thing when we got to the car was take out the sanitary hand wipes. We had a great time.

I wasn't bothered by the subway at all. Incredible way to travel if you need to avoid traffic daily. I don't feel the need to use it again but wasn't bothered at all. Brenda on the other hand.... you would have thought the HazMat Team would need to shower her down. She still might feel dirty!!!
It was a fun day. I can
t believe you didn't poste pictures of the Dodge Avenger though!!!
We made a dash to the restroom to clean the grossness off! It was nasty.... admit it! Never again. But thanks for taking us to the car show. It was fun.
