Ya, I really hate texas water. I'm hoping to move north ASAP as I just loathe the summers down here.

Looking at the other products mentioned, the Hard body protection looks interesting too. Considering how soft lexus paint is, probably would be a good idea to get as well.

you want to move north??? i want to move to a warm climate. Hard Body is a great coating... our paint is ridiculously soft, especially the Obsidian.

LOL! I'm with Syd on that. I really really don't want to have to deal with cleaning the salt, sand, slushy snow etc off my car in the winters. Years ago, I spent several winters in MN, and was incredibly thankful for a heated underground garage - but hated the thought of having to leave the car outside the office while at work, and dealing with scarping the ice after that.

Well, I guess every region has its issues - in TX, gotta worry about hail & tornado & intense heat in the summer instead! lol!

I've put in all 34 years of my life here. Time for a change I feel. There are many other reasons too. I miss having seasons and dealing with the cold just means a little different lifestyle. I can always put more clothes on but can't take it off when in the summer to get comfortable. Otherwise, Texas isn't bad, just need a change of scenery.

At least this baby has no emotion. You got to spend money somehow

you've never ordered from Phil before? i love the service. if i order before 11:00 am i'll have it the next morning. Phil gets your ****** out. plus if i have nothing to do i'll take a trip to DD and just walk through and look at all the products he has and pick what i need shoot the breeze with Phil and Derrick, pick up a few detailing tips... DD is the place to go if you're a car guy. he's does wheels, stop tech brakes, tires, clear film, just to name a few.

yeah, if he doesn't have it, he can get it. but he does a number of things. you should see his car. it's a sleeper until you get in and put your foot on the throttle.

Yeah, this guy is on top of his orders. I guess that's how you earn business these days. I remember we were exchanging email back and forth the other midnight when I needed to add another item to my submitted order.
Many thanks to Mr. Syd for introducing DD to us.

DD is no joke... BTW, Vossen and BBS N.A. is 2 doors down from him . he will get you a great wheel and tire package. someone else is next door to him also, i think it's Primo or Auto Finesse. all my future cars will go to DD and all my future car care products will be bought from DD... i am sold.

This guy will find any reason to drive the GS. Do they still make you pay for sale tax? Dropping the car off today.... will get her back before the weekends.
