The biggest selling I have to do is selling the idea to my wife.

Ehh.. just bring it home one day Lance.
So it costs you another Tropical Vacation...

That thing looks to be MANY tropical vacations on hot rubber.

Wonder what the reserve is?!

Unnnhhh! I can just hear it now:

"You love that car more than me; it was bad enough playing second fiddle to your fish tanks, now this!"

"You just want to cruise chicks with your hot car, pretending to be young again!"

"You'll probably wrap that thing around a telephone pole and kill yourself!"

J/K: She's usually pretty good about my crazy ideas, but this might be pushing it a little. On the other hand, she's got a new Nissan Murano while I drive around in the frumpy company van.

Sounds familiar... Only it was a motorcycle... and then I got in an accident... Now I have a fish tank

Yeah, she can't argue that a fishtank is safer than a bike. Not cheaper: just safer!

My Triggerfish is in love: Not with a female Trigger, but my MP40's!

On the left-hand end of the tank I have two MP40's mounted quite close together. I had one of them running on the Reef-Crest Random mode and the other on Constant Speed mode. The other day I switched them both, (in sync), to Long Pulse mode and ramped up the volume.
My Trigger has totally fallen in love with the new setting. He used to like to ride the surf from one end of the tank to the other. Now, he just hovers right in front of the impellers and doesn't move except for feeding time. He reminds me of an old man in a new vibrating Laz-E-Boy! I hope his infatuation wears off as he is now very boring: Just sits there with a stupid-looking grin on his face. I might just as well hang a plastic fish on fishing line just like the Submarine Ride at Disneyland.

Maybe a mate will take his mind off of it. I was thinking of getting him a girl friend anyway.

I think I read in the description it was appraised at 160K US. as cool as the classics are you can buy a 2011 GT500 for around 60K and have just as much fun with it.
Just buy one Lance I'm sure if you talk to the accountant they will find creative ways to write off your new "fast response delivery vehicle", hell buy 2 and I'll do deliveries for free!
