Use of Turn Signals

Use your turn signals!

This isn't hard to do is it! However you lazy people out there don't use them. So how is the person in the next lane over going to know that you are moving over to avoid driving into the side of your vehicle? By using your signals.

I almost got hit the other day because this guy in a large van did not use his signal. I used mine, I looked and as I moved over, he did the same. However the difference here is this: I had my signal on, if he had even looked he would have seen my signal and chose not to move over, also if he had used his signal himself, I would have not almost hit him as he rushed over into my lane.

So day I was driving and there it goes again. Someone moving into another lane without using there signal while a person in the opposite lane does the same. So one person gets mad and feels cut off. Well...if each of you had used your signals, none of this would have happen.

Quit driving in the dark people! Open you freakin' eyes and use your signals!

The use of the turn signal:
Did you know that it is ILLEGAL, yes ILLEGAL (in state of florida) to change direction without indicating your signal prior? I think it should be illegal to change lanes without indicating your intentions by using your signal. This law would probably save lives or at least your vehicles.

So might I ask you, "What is the point of a turn signal that doesn't get used?" Nothing...turn signals there aren't being used are pointless. Why do you think the car manufacturing industry added them to vehicles, so you have yellow lights?

Save the PT

Save The PT Cruiser! Rumors have been swirling that Chrysler does not plan to redesign the PT Cruiser and that the 2009 model year will be the PT's last...the time has come to act. Scott Kissinger from PTenthusiasts.org has made SaveThePT.com and is asking for our cooperation. Please take the time to visit SaveThePT.com and sign the online petition to tell Chrysler how we feel and that the PT Cruiser deserves better than to just ride off into the sunset. Scott says "If enough of us act, we can make sure that there are PT Cruisers for years to come."

SW Florida PT Cruisers

As something for value I will be adding some details from our local club to this site.

4-10-08 Thursday's Monthly meeting.

We covered many bases last night as the meeting was rather a short and small meeting. During this time of the year we have less members because the seasons change and they leave us to go back up north or vacation to a place less hot.

Last nights meeting consisted of about 11 people and a total of about only 6 cars. As we re-structure and re-focus on building the club up again we are trying new approaches. In an attempt to stream-line the building materials, yet still make each unique to each vehicle owner, we are focusing on ideas still in the making. We are looking to form a stronger club and get the word out about the club. At one point we had a dedicated 35+ member string, which is now down to about 10.

We are in hopes of starting weekend membership drives. Simply put, this will be the outing of people in the club through their daily lives. See a PT, provide them information about the club and see if they wish to join us. We are a fun club, nothing strict, and we just love cars.

Cut out a PT

Came across this in my search for new content, thought it might be fun for a bit. Check it out. Right Click on picture and go to Print. Then cut out the design and build. There work out pretty well, a little boxxy, lol, but I don't mind. I think if you try to save it into another program such as Paint, you can even change the colors a bit.

PT Through Creation

Don’t know how many have already seen this but it is a treat!

Below is a picture of a PT Cruiser as a reference of what a standard silver model from 2001-2004 would have looked like stock.

2001 PT Cruiser

The following are pictures of a PT that was created from the imagination, truly one of a kind. Used as an advertisement purpose perhaps, yet I believe it is just filled with only the components. This PT has very unique body work and fiberglass sculpting from the looks of it. Differently a one of a kind creation to be seen in person if anyone gets a chance.

This "Alien PT" if you will, was created or developed in Russia, has made a definite hit in the Russian car show scene. I believe this PT is featured somewhere in the 2006 Russian IASCA shows.

This is a PT modeled from that of the Alien movie series, where the alien has take the PT as its host and is now coming out of the host organism. Made to look like the alien is ripping the grille to pieces and the head crown is coming out through the hood area.

Following are some shots of the interior and the components.

The neon's are nice touch! I would have loved to see this get created!

Looks like all Audiobahn equipment was used here in this install. Hard to believe this was once where the backseats where in this cruiser.

I obtained these images from the net via an image search. I have also noted the links for more information at the bottom.
