    Default GoL needs your help!

    In an effort to cut down fuel & rental costs this year, while helping our great mother Earth we are looking for owners of hybrid vehicles who would like to attend the GoL 08 tests.

    Vehicles we are looking for:

    Ford Explorer Hybrid SUV. Red or White.
    Toyota Prius - Red or White.
    Nissan Altima Hybrid - Red or White.

    Please note that your vehicle will log many miles, will be subject to double sided tape, possibly VEIL, and what ever mother earth decides to dish out.

    If you are interested please send type of vehicle, and your location to happya$$, jimbonzz, stealthjamal, or myself.

    Due to the secret nature of our events, dates & location will be withheld. So please don't PM or ask here when we are planning the event.

    If you are not a fan of hybrids, please don't turn this thread into your soapbox.

    Thanks for the help,

    I'd spend the fuel money, but if you want to reduce carbon footprint, there are more options:

    Yukon Hybrid
    and veggie Oil diesels.

    -Suf w/ none of the above

    great ideas Suf. One of those VW clean turbo diesels would be sweet as well.

    You can use my 82 Benz 300 D Turbo but you have to make it run first

    How about a "control group"....y'know...just to...ah....compare. So ask for something like a Ferrari Enzo, a Bugatti Veyron, or even a Ford GT. Just to borrow for the cause.

    All of those are welcome People have been wanting some real world tests, I'd have no problem getting up to a 100+ in one of those beasts just so I wasn't paying for the gas
