Hello, everyone! Not very long ago, I kindly asked Brian to send me a RTH decal. But it was only a few days ago when I could stick it where I wanted to. Here it is: It looks good on the dashboard, doesn't it? And here are some pics our new car (KIA Sportage): As you see Ina looks pretty happy about it by now. This was not from the beginning: she was nostalgic about the old one. And she was kinda right, that one was a very reliable car, which I also think it carried, during all our trips, at least its own weight in rocks ;D I really hope the new one will be the same. Thank you for looking, and special thanks to Brian for the decal and all what came together with it Adrian

sweet, Adrian! Hope you like your Sportage as much as we like our Sorento!

I've had one of those stickers from Brian for years now but never had the nerve to put it on my car. I keep it on the wall of my office. I hope you like your Kia, I bought a Kia Forte Koup in July and love it so far.

Nice ride, Adrian! I scanned my decal and printed the scan onto a sheet of paper that has an adhesive peel-off back. I put that one on my truck, and I keep the original by my computer.

Looks like it can get around on the back roads and carry lots of rocks! Nice decal, you won't forget where home is... Jo

Wow.. you didn't have to buy a brand new car just to have a place to stick the decal! ;D
Congrats, hope you get many many miles of trouble-free travel!!

Thank you friends!
The ride's good, nice to upgrade from a small car to this one. Better view while driving, good confort and also better fuel consumption (being a Diesel).
LOL, Brian, it was vice-versa, I was kindly asking you for a decal because I knew the car is about to arrive. There was a nearly 5 months waiting time for this car. We should had been receiving it before our vacation with Karen, but the delay was huge. The same situation is pretty much all over the world though (excepting North America). Waiting times from 4 to 9 months.

Awesome new ride Adrian!
Great idea Bill! Wish I would have scanned mine into the computer before putting it on my van!

Oh, Adrian! It looks so good with Ina! Is she gonna get a license now? And soon, Ioana will be getting her license! Are you gonna give up a few driving hours? Your pix look like car advertisements. Beautiful, as always. However, I will always have a place in my heart for the smaller car that took me thru crazy mountain passes safely. I hope it has a new, wonderful home! Upgrading to an SUV had nothing to do with your trip to the US, and experiencing one for yourselves, right? And where are you gonna park that big girl? Have you named her yet? Because every beautiful girl does need a name! k
