Hello everybody, Darren here, just wanted to say "Hey":)
Been here for a few weeks and wanted to introduce myself.

I have been going through a lot of changes the last couple of months, and one of them was the purrchase of a 2004 Mazda 3 Sport GT. My wife bought a 2007 Mazda 3 gt in Dec. and I really liked it except for the leg room. I am 6'1" and it seemed way too cramped for me. So I was contemplating an M6 instead, but I liked the 3 more. The dealer told me that the seat could be moved back by lowering it, which made a big difference.

So thats when I bought my 3 Sport GT.
Fun little car, and I do mean little. After driving trucks and SUV's the last 8 years, I feel like I'm driving a go-cart....oh well, it is good on gas (especially compared to my other 3 - Hummer H3)

My favorite passion, next to my son, is motorcycles. I currently ride a 2003 Suzuki GSX-R1000. My son owns a 2003 Suzuki DRZ110 and also has a 2003 Polaris Scrambler 50 ATV. I sold my MX bike but plan to purchase another one in the spring.

Anyhow, thats me in a nutshell, hope I haven't p'd off anybody here so far, but it may be coming.....you've, been warned:chuckle

Fixed.

Yes, she had the seat in the highest position = no leg room.

i like the tri-tone gas cap on the hummer.. almost makes it seem like it's environmentally friendly :)
