This is not my first convertible but it is my first with a hard-top. There are probably 2 realities; convertibles leak one way or another, and you either have mechanical or fabric problems to deal with. Probably both with a conventional top.
Yes I have had the dreaded "Top Not Secure"...
Blond girl steps on an elevator and just to strike up a conversation with the man already on it says, "T. G. I. F.".
He replies "S. H. I. T.".
She gets a surprised look on her face and says, "T. G. I. F. You know... Thank God It's Friday."

In both the XLR and Corvette, it is fairly common to hear a thump from the rear-end, usually when backing up. This is the anti-slip mechanism equalizing itself and is not particularly harmful but is very annoying.
They have a solution; replace the fluid in the rear-end with a different...
'05 and earlier XLR's had some headlight issues that I think have been corrected by going to a different vendor.
One involved a recall. My recall never said why but I believe it had to do with the bulb/connector being a possible fire hazard.
A second issue involves the daytime running lights...
The Rockies have been hitting on all cylinders lately... but I was at least a little surprised at how well Boston came back from the brink.
Being an NL fan I am pulling for the Rockies... every team deserves a first and I know how hard they had to work to rise out of the league. But it is the...

A 20-room mansion (not including 8 bathrooms) heated by natural gas. Add on a pool (and a pool house) and a separate guest house all heated by gas. In ONE MONTH ALONE...
On the last day of kindergarten, all the children brought presents for their teacher. The florist's son handed the teacher a gift. She shook it, held it up and said, "I bet I know what it is - it's some flowers!"
"That's right!" shouted the little boy.
Then the candy store owner's daughter...
Yesterday, we saw a silver Mustang.... had pulled over another car. YES - an unmarked State Trouper... very well done, the lights were not visible when off.
Later up the road... a silver full-sized Ford (with nice wheels) had another car pulled over... YES - an unmarked State Trouper.
I have...
Not quite a joke, but a really great story:
The brand new pastor and his wife, newly assigned to their first ministry, to reopen a church in suburban Brooklyn, arrived in early October excited about their opportunities When they saw their church, it was very run down and needed much work. They...
I am not a real young fella, and I've owned a few pretty nice rides over the years. This one is the one every one wants to look at... point at... if I was a real out-going sort of guy I would love this stuff. Well... it IS fun, but what a beautiful car!
