Default Newb from Los Angeles

Greetings, everyone. I just picked up a 2012 Portfolio and am loving it so far! Being an avid motorcyclist who hardly ever drives (less than 4k miles/year), I've ridden my bikes only a handful of times in the last month ever since I got this thing. Which is quite unusual as I normally commute on two wheels and spend an average of 4x's a week up the Angeles Crest Highway tearing up the alluring ribbons of tarmac. But this car is so seductive, it's kept me off the bikes like I never expected. I know it's the honeymoon period and all, but damn, what a great car. I'm looking forward to many years of endless smiles per mile with this sweet beast!

Obligatory photos here:

Thanks for the warm welcome, everyone. By the way, is it normal to find yourself eating every meal in the garage after buying a Jaaaaag? Having it attached to the kitchen means every single time I go to the fridge for a drink/snack/meal, I end up in there regardless. Making coffee? I'll be in the garage. Scouring the pantry for a snack? I'll be in the garage. Standing with the fridge open hoping something delicious will magically appear? I'll end up in the garage!

Tell me this is normal.

Welcome to the forums TL2bass,

I spend a lot more time in the garage than I do in the kitchen so for me your behaviour is perfectly normal.
