I can only imagine what's all around the Great Lakes...I mean there are some nice boats on Lake Norman here and although it's a decent size for a lake it's still just a pond or even a puddle compared to that.

Now when visiting Ft. Lauderdale/Miami...OMG !!!!!! *drool*

I visit my dad by 10,000 islands in florida. man some very nice boats going through there. lots of eye candy on the decks to.

I'm hearing the theme song from Miami Vice in my head right about now just thinking about stuff like that.

I hear you. I used to go down every year to visit him, now days seems I'm always swamped and haven't been in a few years. I have to find time soon.
I don't know what is more impressive the eye candy on the boats or the sound of the engines as they idle by. he lives just close enough to open water you can hear it when they leave the "channel" and open 'em up. OMG!!!!
I'm hoping to step up to something in the 21-23 foot range next year but I'd love to score just a ride on one of those cigarettes one day.

I had a 2006 Gen 1 for about 25k miles. It was great. But, some dude wasn't paying attention in traffic and rammed me, totalling my poor little toaster oven.

Well I just saw the picture and immediately was going to post..."You're probably going to get cracked on about aerodynamics but..." Too late I guess.

I had a Jeep Cherokee Sport which is about like a brick in the wind and my Liberty isn't much better.

I've never driven one but just from seeing them around...cool looking little ride man.

Yeah that is sad, especially when you know you can't replace it with the same thing.

I love my HHRSS. But I'm worried how the 290hp/390tq is going to be in the snow.

Are you talking about mine or the cigs I was talking about? (Well, not mine but...) Its older than you think it is, but i guess boats dont age like other vehicles do. I have been thinking about getting my own soon, but I hear they are giant money pits.

The great lakes are great. Whats amazing is they are all different. Temp, depth, fish.
