Plus i cant afford another ticket. Your chance of getting a ticket on your caravan to Bimmerfest goes up 200% lol.

Just go Simon, if you have never been you should atleast see if you enjoy it or not.

You should DEFINITELY do this. I've seen cops pull over CARAVANS of 10+ cars and issue out front plate/tint tickets to each car.

hahahah yea they asked us if we wanted to upgrade the car (for a fee of course) but we figured we'd get good gas mileage out of the prius. But after seeing what people posted in my thread, i guess 40mpg is bad hahah.
