New From Iowa

Post by Marshall2469 »

Hi everyone I just signed up for this sight about 2 weeks ago after buying a 95 Bonneville SSE with 114,xxx miles on her. She has a laundry list of problems from the previous owner but she is both my second car ever and my second 3800. First car was a 1989 delta 88 brougham which has 150,xxx, So ill probably be on and around a lot. I don't know a lot of the abbreviations so if there's a list somewhere that would be nice. I look forward to getting to know you guys.

That's the second time I've heard/seen the word "Iowegians" in the last few days. Is that the real word? I thought it was "Iowans".
