ALRIGHTY! ^^ So here is yet another thrilling trip to add to my life stories X3 I hope you all are learning things from these........ because I'm not X3 ANYWHOS! So, *iconhousehead:  canislupissian85  kitsukami31  kaiser and myself decided to take  canislupissian85 's 1984 Oldsmobile Delta 88 on a roadtrip from Boise to SLC. Which seemed like a decent idea at the time, other than it would get bad gas mileage, because the car had been in his family for some time and did not have major problems ^^ So, we started on our way ^^ Nothing special..... we get around the Mountain Home area, and it seems we lightly hit something at some point, because at that moment, the tire shredded the entire middle section of its tread, leaving the outermost row of tread on both sides but exposing the wire layer on everything else (on fairly new tires mind you....) SO! We pull off to the side of the road to see the damages........... the inner fender well was plastic....... and I say was because there was nothing left thanks to the tire, as well as decent damage to the fender and the battery, which was barely held in at this point..... -_- So, we get into the trunk so I can change the tire, it has a doughnut spare..... mildly annoying but oh well........ except I can't find the jack and tire iron......... *mild annoyance face* -_- So, we decide to go about 10-15 mph the 5-10 miles it was back to mountain home (which means we used one of those emergency vehicle turn arounds X3) and then we got to Walmart. We had to grab a tire and a battery (which meant kaiser and husky had to shank and bleed out their wallets x.x X3) and then after a bit of convincing done to the lady that we did not need the $70 battery that the $55 would be just freaking fine, regardless of Walmart policy, and strapping the battery in with bungie cables....... (yes it seems that my road trips always involve some redneck rigging x.x X3) Then we finally made it to SLC (by using WAY more gas than predicted, thanks to the wonderful quadraJUNK carb that was on the car from the factory, which broke those two even more x.x and we were about two hours late x.x) Luckily, there were still a few furs there, so we mingled and were introduced to a few people and whatnot, which was rather fun ^^ Then, after we figured our plans, Househead went and stayed the night at his friend's as everyone else, save for myself went to  exileanarkie 's house to watch Rocky Horror Picture Show, while I went to  YouKaiYasha 's place and spent some time with him and his room mate, who was very nice, and I also met his coworker Sara, who was also nice ^^ Then everyone else made their way to where I was via Kregan and his late 90's or earlt 2000's Mustang.......... yes............... Mustang -_- ANYWHOS, then we all stayed the night there, and we had all decided that seeing as the Oldsmobile BARELY made it down there, and had begun exhibiting symptoms mildly similar to that of the Toyota (yes the one that blew up and left us stranded during the FC trip x.x) that it was better to give the dumb thing to  exileanarkie 's roomate? I believe it was and to ride back with Kregan. Now imagine this: five tall/decently sized people and a shorter sixth person, cramming into that Mustang............. WITH two fursuits and various luggage mind you.................. It was interesting.......... but I am ahead of myself. X3 We get a ride from  youkaiyasha 's place from  exileanarkie to where Kregan had stayed so we could break off and go with him to get Househead and be on our way. So we load us up and go to get him. On our way around the suburb looking for the house, we spot a goat in someone's yard........ a goat........ in a decent suburb........ O.O So we have to flip around at one point dur to a dead end, and the goat is a little bit in the road, so we come to a stop, and the goat stares us down, then walks up to the front of the car and I guess sniffs the hood emblem or something lol X3 So, I roll down my window and am like "here goaty goaty goaty" and it came over and sniffed my hand and I pet it X3 Then it ran away back to the yard X3 So then we got Househead and went on our way home, all of us piled in the car....... as Househead put it, human Tetris X3 and we were that way for abour 5 or 6 hours............ BUT It was really fun on the way home, as Enchantment as it may be (tis an inside joke that those who play Dragon Age Origins should get X3) But all in all, the ride back was fun and cramped, the ride there was interesting (I was having that dumb car go about 110 MPH or so at times to get there) and the meet, though we were late was fun. Overall, I would do it again if I had to, but I am really sick of losing cars. At this rate I refuse to take my own car on a roadtrip until I put a new engine and transmission in it and break them in lol X3 (or maybe a small road trip if I can go a couple months without issues X3) But anywhos, yep. Went to Utah furmeet, lost an 84 Olds, and had to ride in a Mustang T-T That's the gist of it. Oh and that random goat X3
