Hello everyone,

My name is Thierno (call me T) and I just moved from Philadelphia to Miami.

Ive had my DSM since 2003, it's a 98 Tsi Awd with a few mods here and there :-)

Lookin to meet some people here and go to some meets etc.

I already met one guy with a red spyder gst and fmic in south beach.

Welcome T

Regarding your E85 question, there are two threads in the announcement
forum with E85 information. Needless to say, I haven't updated either thread
in quite some time.

I just stop caring about it, because I'm able to pick up E85 down the street
from me. Plus, I'm the only person here that uses it full time.
And E85 is now very widely available in south Florida.

Matter of fact I'm the only one with a running car, using e85 24/7. But I'm far from miami, so i can not help with your question.

Be safe on the drive. It's a pain in the ass -- I drove from NY to FL over 2 days back in August (went to visit family). Definitely don't feel like doing that again any time soon.

Have a safe trip.


I drive everywhere, I hate flying, trains are too slow.
I love getting in my truck and hitting the open road nice and early
(I used to love it in my DSM too ).

So i been busy unpacking...

We got to Miami at 2pm saturday (left philly at 4 pm friday) in one piece.

The drive was insane, i did not sleep at all and i drove the uhaul for 17 hours out of the 21 hour drive...we went through bitter cold, a huge snowstorm, crazy rain and then finally nice warm florida weather!!!
