Hello everyone! I just picked up my Cargo Khaki 2wd EX just over a week ago! This forum has been very helpful to search through to help find the accessories I wanted to buy.

I haven't seen many Khaki E's on this site yet... lets see if I can figure out how to post a pic to get one out there...

Very cool color. Welcome to the EOC. Are you going to go any mods? Have fun in the sun. :grin:

Thanks everyone! I'll put up some more pics in a bit after I resize them to meet the forum req's... I was looking at a blue one but this color just kept catching my eye on the lot. So, I bought it! :grin:

As for mods, I'm probably going to stay stock for a while... foglights will probably be mod #1. I have some 17" rims from my last vehicle laying around but I need to research fitment (offset, bolt pattern, etc.) for the element to see if they'll fit. And, if anyone makes them, better sway bars.

Yepp! Got back Monday evening. I kind of functioned yesterday but today I am back on the ball! Looking into how to buy land in Scotland though. :-) The highlands to be more exact. It is AMAZING there!

Yeah, its hard to capture the depth of this paint in such a small compressed picture. No need to be sorry... when you see one in real life, you'll understand how silly your comment is, unless there's a new tan high gloss primer out now? :grin:

the color also reminds me of 60s kitchen appliances.

No doubt, it's high gloss, but it's lacking metallic particles, which in that color, simply makes it look flat

Flat? Now I KNOW you've never seen it in person! I'm glad I'm not old enough to remember 60's kitchen appliances...

To each their own.
