Dale, things must be slow at the shop. You clearly have too much time on your hands, :045:

But thanks for all that information all the same.

There isn't an acronym for MINI Cooper Clubman "S" or justa. :017:

MCCl-MINI Cooper Clubman
MCCla-MINI Cooper Clubman automatic
MCClS-MINI Cooper Clubman S
MCClSa-MINI Cooper Clubman S automatic

Okay, that might be stretching it a bit!

And John, I wish we were slow. 67 cars on the lot with almost 80K in the door. I could feel better about the grey hair and headaches IF my pay check was commensurate with the idiots I had to deal with!

Most of my surfing is while I'm on hold waiting for a parts idiot to find the part I need, or why I got the wrong part, or what my part is at someone else's  shop, or why they didn't order the part when I asked them to, or....well, you know the routine!

Wow Dale, You've been able to make me laugh today. :045:  Ok, Here it is. I own a Forest Green Tahoe, Which I commonly refer to as" I'm driving the" ho" today, as in Tahoe....Now If I try to explain your sequence of acronyms to Anyone, things will really start to get confusing, as if they were'nt already, :102:  Because come to find out, after painstakingly doing the equasion  :094: and computing all the possible acroynms..... :087:.....BTW,IMO, I now have 2 Ho's... :044: ...A green one and my..,....if I get this correct.....  HO/B,MCSC,MCS...Hot Orange Mini Cooper S Conv..OPPS,Cabriolet.,Black top, Dual Center exaust......wtf,?idk,tmi& i'm deff lsopBut gok?I'm hfb and u nvr hv 2 wry bt me pyn...Dale :039:

Okay, cut Mike off! :044:

I thought you might apprecieate that Dale. See ya for a lil vino Sat evening :039:

 :111:  Kathy say's, HO HO, Mike.   :114:

I think I rather like having a Ta/hoe and a Ho/wee :icon_exclaim:

No, don't cut him off.  Gimme some of what he's having!   :026:

Alright Dale, I took the acronym advice and updated my signature. Might I suggest you do the same ? Ya know, save some space and all that.

BTW, AKA is "also known as". Looks like your original post missed that one. Now don't go back and edit.  :039:
