    Getting partially settled into Germany

    Hey Geeks, Happy Columbus day.

    Just wanted to get on and give a minor update with me for anyone that followed along with my last thread.

    Smack leaves Las Vegas for Germany

    Anyhow you could say that I am partially settled in as I have a place to live now and have started work. However I don't have my BMW's yet or my furniture, beds, or detailing gear. I live on base and in an apartment style building without a garage. My cars will have to stay out in the weather. But I will trade my garage for the Autobahn and Nuerburgring.

    The beer, food, and feeling of being in Germany is incredible and I would like to be a tour guide for AGO and post pictures of my travels throughout Europe while I am here. What do you guys say?

    Germany is my dream vacation (just to drive on the Autobahn). I hope you post plenty of pics. I'll be living my dreams through you. LOL
    Enjoy Germany and stay safe and thanks for your service.
    Always keep the shine in your life.

    Sure thing gentlemen. I will keep you guys posted on my travels and post pictures of any vehicle of interest.

    I will also inject any one within earshot of the Autogeek bug. I am in progress of searching for car clubs.

    Please do!!
    I, for one, will be awaiting further illustrative-updates!
    Hi Mike...

    I'm glad you're getting (somewhat) settled in...

    Also:
    I hope not yet having your BMW's, (in the: "Land of Bavaria", no less!)...
    doesn't have you on tenterhooks!!!

    Really like Germany. Was there at Ramstein AFB while on leave from Bosnia back in the day. You can prob get a good deal on a new Bimmer while over there. Can you tour the BMW factory?

    Re: Getting partially settled into Germany

    Good luck and enjoy. I spent some time there with Army back in the 90's. Loved my time there and got to see alot. Driving the Autobahn is great, mind you I only did it in Opel Vectra, ha!

    I was at Ramstein from 05 to 08 before. I really enjoy Germany. I have bought my current two BMW's from here. May get another one after a while.
