Got a mention in the Wall Street Journal :-)

A General Discussion forum for cars and other topics, and a great place to introduce yourself if you are new to NICO!

Hey guys! I know Fred and Chris already know this, but I got interviewed for a short segment in the Wall Street Journal. It covers a car and the demographics of people who buy it and what they use it for and all. Anyways, Fred and Chris passed the opportunity to me to give some input on the I35, and my name made it into the article!

It was pretty funny because I hadn't told my family, and the day it came out, my dad got a call from one of his clients, basically shocked to see my name listed as a driver and he acted like he was reading the article saying, "Yeah, my dad got me this car so I could pick up chicks and race around town at the same time...and yada yada"

Of course I didn't say that :D , but it was funny nonetheless.

I've got the article in Adobe Acrobat format, I'll put a link here for those interested.

Thanks!

I saw that in the paper and figured it was a NICO guy. Very cool! How did you get hooked up with that?

LOL Matt..sure ;)

Thanks everyone for the kind words. As far as how I got hooked up with it, I have to give Mayhem_J30 (Chris) and Palmerwmd (Fred) the credit. They passed along the opportunity they got via email to me.

Thanks again!

John
