Hi, I'm Zach. I drive a 2003 Toyota Matrix XRS, and I love my car. Alas, I'm not here for my car, but rather for my fiance's car, which recently started having problems, but that will be another thread in a better location. Her car is a black 2000 jetta with the 2.slow motor, 5 speed manual, roof rack, blah blah blah...

Anyway, I'm into working on cars doing minor bolt on mods, and basic maintenance, and things like that.

Other hobbies include fishing, drinking good beer (yes i am a beer snob), playing with my dogs (13 year old long hair chihuahua, 3.5 year old jack russell/mini aussie shepard mix, 1 year old pit bull/boxer mix), and torturing the cat (4 year old 15 lb orange furbag, bigger than the chihuahua).

I am also on other forums, but they are toyota based, and thus sacrilegious to here (www.toyotasyndicatenw.com and www.matrixowners.com). sorry, couldn't help but throw out a cheap plug for them.
