Traveling
It's quite cramped in this trailor again, but at least I'm not by myself! I'm back with my buddies from Rose Hulman and Texas Tech. I'll be dropped off second, so I feel sorry that Texas Tech will have to go the rest of the way all alone!

Moving on Up
After my students left me in Detroit, I had fun exploring the Milford Prooving Grounds with my other Equinox buddies. A few of the us got the star treatment from our friends at GM. Those guys were constantly running tests, and exploring why some of us ran how we did. I think I'm due homeward bound in a few days, and should be reunited with my students sometime in July. I have a feeling that they are going to disassemble me again.
I got 8th place overall in the competition this year! It was the same place as last year, but I feel this level of 8th place is much higher than last year's in Mesa. This year, we got first place in the Controls award! That's a step up from last year's 3rd! It feels good to win somethings!

Yikes!
My buddy from Texas Tech got really sick today. He was leaking hydrogen everywhere, and the hydrogen pits had to be evacuated. It was not nearly as scary as when my friend from Waterloo fell off the lift, and disapeered for a few days...Things are always interesting up here in Milford.

Exile
My students are here today! It's so great to see them all here. I'm alone with only 3 other of my buddies from Waterloo, Penn State and Texas Tech are outside working in the hydrogen pits, so I don't get to be as social as I'd like.

See ya on the other side
I shipped this week. They threw a party for me. People came to admire me. That was wonderful. Then they stuffed me into a truck with a buddy from Texas Tech. I waved goodbye to my team and we were off! We stopped to pick up another friend from Rose-Hulman then drove onto Detroit.
While I was driving my OnStar computer was activated. That was nice knowing that I had another buddy with me even when my students couldn't be there.
It's great here in Detroit. I miss my students, but all of my Equinox buddies are here. It's quite the family reunion. Most of us have shed our old silver paintjobs. We have a bunch of new friends from General Motors with us and a few old friends are here too. This is a really fun vacation, but I miss my team. Hope I see them soon.

Busy, busy, busy
My students have been really busy lately. Evidently I "ship" in a few days. I have a feeling I've shipped before. I don't think I liked it. In the meantime, it's great getting so much attention. They can't keep their hands off me. I've never felt better. Almost as good as when I was a young car just off the showroom floor.

I feel pretty
I was feeling pretty bad about things, when they sent me away for a few days. I thought it was a bad sign, they had grounded me or given me up for adoption. The guy they gave me to took me apart. It was really grim. But, now, I look better than ever. A fresh coat of paint really makes a girl feel beautiful. That's my new paint job in my photo. I thought I'd show it off since my team spent their last pennies on that. I think it was worth it, don't you?
