Found $1.43 under the driver's side backseat floor mat. Woohoo. That is all.

In California, that will buy you half a gallon of gas.

On the surface, this seem like a pretty lame post. But I think I can relate. At least twice now I have left the change drawer open after I got change out at Mickey D's or elsewhere, and then later with a "spirited launch" (in spite of all of the disappointing torque posts) most of the change in the drawer goes flying back along the front seat and onto the back seat floor. What's the old legend about putting a $20 dollar bill on the dash and challenging your passenger that he can have it if he can reach it as you accelerate from a stop! ( back in the Boss 429 days!) I don't think the 8 will quite live up to that, but at least it will throw some change back in his face!

Zoom, Zoom

I find change in the backseat all the time. I consider it a surcharge for hauling around my passengers.

I used to "extract" change out of one of my friends in my old Miata... I always drove to lunch, and usually would wait until he wasn't expecting it and light up the tires, sending his pocket change flying behind the seat... the look on his face was priceless- "****... not again!" :D

I think that's what Canadians call their one-dollar and two-dollar coins.
You thought they were sexual things, didn't ya? :D
