I love my Delica!

Had to be in Red Deer yesterday evening and this morning for an exam, and drove up and back both days rather than staying over...
First of all, I never get tired of the reaction I get from other drivers, seemed every second one did a double-take with me on the highway... that always makes me chuckle.
On the way back last night a fellow in a RHD JDM 4Runner pulled up beside me and waved, and as he too was a ham radio operator, we talked on the radio for quite a ways on the highway, great comraderie in the RHD scene!
on my way home today I also had a fellow pull up beside me driving up 14th st and roll down his window and ask how I like the Delica.. apparently he was thinking of getting one...
And the best part... after the vehicle had been sitting in the hot sun all morning, I walked out of my exam, hit the remote starter, and by the time I got to my van, not only had the airconditioning cooled off the passenger compartment to comfortable, the Coolbox had cooled off my water bottle too! what other vehicle can do that?!
