Yeah, there's a lot of fits around now. 6 months ago I hardly saw them.

Yeah I live in Lee's Summit and had to drive up by KCI and down to Harrisonville today. Today I saw about five some even in rural areas that used to contain all pickup trucks. Last November when I got mine I was alone and liked it that way. I see more each day. I still haven't seen another BBP but I'm sure that will happen.

KCI eh? I'm just south of there by Barry Road.

I drive from OP tp Lee's Summit along 435/470 and have seen at least 4 -5 every day. There a red one that I pass or they pass me everyday.

We should start a FIT Club.

We definitely should, although since I'm moving back to Joplin in a week, I'm not sure how much I could contribute, lol.

I would be down with that. I have noticed more and more, but maybe that is because I started driving one.

I know I keep saying this, but we should meet sometime soon. I would like to meet some fellow fitfreaks before I move. Just name a time and a place and we'll work with it... I'm proposing tomorrow (friday) night, because that might be the only free time I have this weekend. I may be availiable sunday afternoon, but it's iffy.

Bad time for me, Friday is bad and Sunday is Race day(NASCAR)

Nascar huh? You shouldn't watch that. It's like the gateway drug to redneck culture. Watch nascar and in a week you'll be shirtless, sitting on your porch drinking cheap beer and your Fit will be in the yard on blocks. Have some pride and watch some F-1 or Le Mans.

I do watch F1 and some other road racing, not much IRL. Oh yea, I like Scotch...single malt. So no not make fun of my NASCAR, It's not for rednecks anymore. Only people who have no clue still see it that way and why are F1 drivers and IRL drivers coming to Stock Car Racing?

Lol. I kid, I kid

ChefMark · #15 (**permalink**) 08-07-2008, 10:34 PM

I know

holloway2006 · #16 (**permalink**) 08-07-2008, 10:58 PM

So my roomate was outside on the phone and some guys that have a fit in our apartment complex were stopped and looking at my car and stuff. Hooray! I love it when people gawk at my car!

They're coming over because of the $$ and the idea that they should be able to perform at a higher level than what they do know.

I believe that people see a small car and think it's slow. Today's small cars have a lot more get up and go. I'm not to sure about actual power it is just in the gearing and computer.
