  2. Are there any web sites where you can download service manuals for cars and trucks? I’m going to be helping a friend replace the brakes on his 98 Jeep wrangler and I’m very anal about being prepared. Having never worked on a Jeep I wanted to look at the manual first but I don't want to buy one. Thanks!
  3. I agree this is America if you're smart and work hard and become a CEO that makes millions that fine. But as a CEO, especially if you're the CEO of a huge business like Ford, you have a responsibility to the community and your workers to manage it properly. And when you loose a billion dollars a quarter, that's not smart and defiantly not something that just happens. Now they're crying because they feel the heat and want the people they've been screwing for years (Tax payers) to bail them out loan or not.
  4. I'm not sure, but if he does it's only because he made billions on google. He's not working for a dollar to be humble. Exactly
  5. DETROIT – Ford Motor Co. will tell Congress that it plans to return to a pretax profit or break even in 2011 when the Detroit Three automakers' CEOs appear before lawmakers this week to request $25 billion in government loans. Ford CEO Alan Mulally said he'll work for $1 per year if the company has to take any government loan money. After grilling the CEOs at hearings last month, Congressional leaders demanded plans from the automakers by Tuesday to show that they will survive if they get federal funds. The plan Ford submitted said the company will cancel all management employees' 2009 bonuses and will not pay any merit increases for its North American salaried employees next year. The company also said it will sell its five corporate aircraft. The CEOs of all three Detroit automakers were harshly criticized during last month's hearings for flying to Washington in separate corporate jets. Does this rub anyone else the wrong way? I understand that the automotive industry is a huge employer, not just to those at the plants. I also understand that without them things would be very bad, probably more then most would expect. But the fact that these CEO fuckwads say “I’ll work for a dollar a year if you give me a loan” is almost offensive. It just goes to show how long they’ve been fucking the system and rollin in the $$$ while their business takes a shit… They probably could actually work for a dollar and be alright because of how much money they’ve mad in the past. Now they see the dark side of things and they want to cry and play the pity card . I would'nt give those sorry mother fuckers a dime... I'd fire them, offer them a jod stamping bumpers and hire new CEO's. I don't know why, but this artical pised me off. The rest of the artical. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20081202/ap_on_go_co/meltdown_autos
  6. Good job Brian, it looks good! And you're doing installs next year too!? Congratz.
  7. :funny: :funny: Congratz Kenny, have fun with it.
  8. Why does the Auto Trans swap seem to be so popular with the C6Z? Normally it's the other way around.
  9. Programable Tstats rock!! From 5:00am-8:00am it's 72* (Nice and warm while I get ready for work). From 8:00am-5:00pm it's 65*. From 5:00pm- 10:00pm it's 70*. Then from 10:00pm- 5:00am back to 65*. It really does help the old heating bills. :thumbup:
  10. I'm not sure if that was ment to be as funny as it was, but good video, great song to go with it and cute dog!
  11. Yeah, but how scared would be if someone had a rocket launcher pointed at you from point blank rnage? That's a little overkill if you ask me.
  12. I just noticed his huge boner...It must be the pleats in the pants.
  13. You make a very good point. Either I didn’t realize how "slow" the Gallardo is or I didn’t realize how fast the Zo6 is, but I was surprised that the Zo6 beat him so easily. Aren’t the lambos built for higher speeds?
  14. True. The car is amazing but could be improved. For Christ sake it has a fucking 1000 HP quad turboed 16 cylinder engine!!! That makes it bad ass and sad all at the same time. But I still don’t know if I would call it terrible.
  15. If you call coming in 4th place with a 1.18 lap time terrible.
  16. That .2 HP was the difference for me.

    See what? The crazy cool interior?
  18. I don't know if I could put a price on my freedom. People says sure $150K as long as I get visits . A year is a long ass time to be in jail. I spent 2 and half days in jail and that was enough for me. It really is like being in with wild animals and that was just for a weekend. No thanks, I'd rather stay free and earn my $55K.
  19. Shit, I've got to work now... Neonkiller, good luck on your surprise build!
