Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

11 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

There I was...it was a beautiful day in El Paso. I'm sitting on the couch and suddenly I have this overwhelming desire to get ice cream. I drive down to the store, pick out my favorite Ben and Jerry's, put it in the trunk and start to head home. Well, there is a road along the Mexican border RTE 9 that is straight for about 45 miles. I pass it on my way home and decided to shake a little carbon from the Box. What could a quick high speed run hurt? I ran down the road 5 miles to check from any state troopers, turned around and hit 140 on the way back (I have a picture on my cell phone), the engine rpm's were running 5700 and she was screamin'! I slow down to pass the border patrol station and head back to the hacienda. I get home and my ice cream is a pool of goo in the bag (the center was still frozen). I pulled out the ice cream, made it into a milkshake and went into a sugar induced comatose nap. Life is good, except I could have sworn I ordered the ice cream option?!

POST 2Original post

That trunk is great for delivering pizza though. You've got to post that 140 picture! Way to keep it safe!

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I just tried to post the picture, but can't get the picture sent from the phone to my email. No worries, will just take the camera out tomorrow and do it again! Stay tuned.

POST 4Original post

The rear trunk of any midengine car is always warm. I've learned that if you go to the store with your boxster to use the front trunk. Never put food, wax, or ammo in the rear trunk.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

ammo? Personal experience with that?

POST 6Original post

or fireworks. That would put a nice colorful sparks behind the boxs

POST 7Original post

@tqtran Hi, Yea, that Ammo thing is a little disconcerting... don't ever want to goad you into Road Rage! I believe in driving Unleaded.... Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

POST 8Original post

Hey Rail 26, now that's what I call, "Making a milkshake out of lemons"! Or something like that!!! What's your favorite....Cherry Garcia???

POST 9Original post

No, I keep my ammo and firearms in the front trunk or behind my seat depending on what I am 'packin' The only thing I find the rear trunk useful for is pizza and cloths.

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Bmus, LOVE the Cherry Garcia! Damn, that's good ice cream. Uh oh...I'm starting to get the craving...

POST 11Original post

that the front trunk can actually get warmer than the rear trunk.
