    Every year I get that dreaded illness called Car Fever. It starts when the new models arrive in mid year, ends in January of the following year after Dr. Sticker Price Shock cures me. This year my Car Fever is conjunctive with Pennant Fever. If the Yankees win the pennant, I'll revert to my "You only live once" routine which will end result in a purchase. I'll head to the local Jeep Dealer and purchase Jeep Wrangler Two Door (Gentleman Version) with the V-6, Automatic, Air Conditioning, and a Hard Top. I will also order A New York Yankees logo Spare Tire Cover, drive all over town Playing "We Are the Champions" & I'm In Love With My Car. So you go Yankees get out there, kick ass, give me a good reason for that purchase.

    Remembering my MGB top up/down experiences are what gives the hard top option worth while. Jeep top up/down operations are not quick, bad gig in Florida. My main concern is that old fashioned recirculation ball steering system . I'll just make sure that the test drive is a route of my choice not the sales persons. Like the four door versions but a friend of mine old me she paid over 40K for the damn thing. The best quality of the Wranglers though is resale value. Yeah I'm looking forward to it.

    ...for me, it was another British Leyland product...Triumph TR6 (during the 70's I had a '69, a '71, and a '76) ...both MGs and Triumphs felt and sounded completely different with the top down...I still remember the throaty sound...the one in the video obviously has a performance cam installed but the Ansa exhaust system is the same...meanest sounding straight 6-cylinder I've ever heard;

    ...back to tonight's game....fwiw, I think Judge has no business in the 2 hole and needs to be dropped in the order.

    ...meh, it's the calm before the storm...of course, boredom has a little to do with it too.

    Houston is facing a better overall Yankee Team than the one that lost 5 of 7. That in conjunction with a seven game series gives them a pretty good chance. Sure would like to see Judge & Sanchez step up their hitting game a bit. Yankees in the ALCS Happy Days are here again.
