Those BMW's are to complicated for me, but I if things hold true Detroit will be doing the same thing in 2020. When I had the Benz, although it was an 87 it had things that took until almost the end of the century for Detroit to implement but as a rule most of them eventually made their way across the pond.JBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09016073653349776611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6192913928006796095.post-60311655094200640582013-09-18T10:07:44.285-05:002013-09-18T10:07:44.285-05:00Thanks for letting us all know what you're doi...Thanks for letting us all know what you're doing and how you're coping Rod.<br /><br />I'm sure that Biscuit will soon bond with you in much the same way she bonded with Loyce. It must be hard on our pets to lose a loved one too but they have a different way of expressing their emotions.<br /><br />That stop/start car would drive me crazy - sort of reminds me of the way golf carts operate - are you sure it wasn't a golf cart you were driving around in???Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16523089898331291694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6192913928006796095.post-77248489168971230912013-09-18T09:58:13.599-05:002013-09-18T09:58:13.599-05:00Rod, it takes time to get over a loss such as your...Rod, it takes time to get over a loss such as yours, for both of you. When my Mom passed in July her cat became very depressed but and now follows my Dad around constantly, insisting on sitting on him all the time and even sleeping pressed next to his body at night. Actually I think it gives Dad some comfort.Contessa https://www.blogger.com/profile/01482663305121297253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6192913928006796095.post-85357605907465393242013-09-18T09:58:02.939-05:002013-09-18T09:58:02.939-05:00Our 320d didn't have that feature, thankfully....Our 320d didn't have that feature, thankfully. But, there were a couple rentals that we had that had it. Of course, in Europe most if not all rental cars are standard (hence my reason for being, wife doesn't do standard all that well) and the first time the car stopped at a light it freaked me out. Thought the thing had quit on me. Shoved in the clutch and it started again. So I would just sit at a light riding the clutch. If the car was in neutral with the clutch out (engaged) it would shut off. Just too weird.<br />I wouldn't be able to handle a pet in bed with me. Tried it years ago, and learned right off that the cat had to be sequestered. He didn't mind. Same later on with my daughter's dog and cat. Out you go! <br />They all sleep in bed in a great heap. I have no idea how anyone gets any sleep! Well, and then there's the pet dander....Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03523653271715366168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6192913928006796095.post-73282749635759397552013-09-18T08:22:59.762-05:002013-09-18T08:22:59.762-05:00Yes, glad to see you posting.

My husband and I are a few years older than you and Loyce, but lead similar lives. <br />We got a second Yorkie to help provide entertainment, companionship, etc. for our first one. Then, we lost the first one to cancer after 9 years. No peace for the lonely one! We got a puppy. So now we have a 9-year-old girl and a one-year-old puppy. They really are good buddies. Took a while to house-break the little one, but well worth it! That might help Biscuit cope. Glad you have your sons to help........RunNRosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11610154229648677906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6192913928006796095.post-77650816585359951022013-09-18T08:07:42.801-05:002013-09-18T08:07:42.801-05:00It's good that you're out getting things d...It's good that you're out getting things done and going for your m/c rides even though it's tough. You and Biscuit need each other right now.
