  1. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/11/24/cleveland-shot-boy/19471925/ Well hay dumb dumb when they tell you to put your hands up you should probably do it. Waiting for the weather to clear up for the protests to start.
  2. I'd rather live like I'm poor than actually be poor. But that's just me.
  3. Pay off the card and stop spending money. You don't need to spend money on Christmas or build a garage.
  4. Timbertop isn't horrible if you're not planning on bringing a lot of valuables with you for your 6-7 months
  5. Yes you can flood a canister. I've seen it on multiple occasions especially with old people when gas prices would fall. And I have also seen many a yes A spark plug replaced under bumper to bumper warranty for misfires because the iridium plugs dont get gapped and occasionally you get a bad or incorrect gapped one from the factory, and its off just enough to not throw a misfire every time. Remember you have to have 6 consecutive misfires to throw the light. 2 years vw/ford tech 6 years independent 2 years bmw
  6. Probably want to look into stow, Munroe falls or cuyahoga falls then for easy route 8 access. Even green wouldn't be a bad drive.
  7. Stop talking like Akron is some giant city. It's not. I live in Copley. 8 miles from downtown and takes me 12'minutes at most to hit the end of 59.
  8. Just drop 5k on a car for her. Or better yet, tell her you'll match whatever she's willing to put up or payback when she can drive herself to work.
  9. Ya if you don't mind 4 out of every 3 of your neighbors cooking meth.
  10. that's basically downtown. West of Akron such as fairlawn and Copley are safe. And hell technically Copley is Akron.
  11. West Akron is perfectly safe. Its east Akron to avoid
  12. Mr. E honey flue cured tobacco Mr. E jade tiger Bobas bounty
  13. Ya I cape an ego twist varient with stock tanks and a 2 ohm atomizer. Down to 2ml of 12mg every couple days. When I reorder ill be dropping to 6mg. This from a 6 can a week habbit of grizzly.
  14. I know what you meant. Trailblazer doesn't have OD. Its just a wide ratio 4 speed. The e150 had it and that's what I was referring too. The elantra is gone but it was a stupid 6 speed auto that shifted way to much but was responsive in the hills to downshifting when needed. But the e150 would have to be a near stall before the OD would kick off. Now the wife's 03 Toyota. I have no idea because we've only had it for a couple weeks and haven't driven it very much.
  15. Does any transmission based on an 80-90s design come out of overdrive on hills? I learned to drive in a 92 E yes E150 and quickly learned that the botton on the gearshift was your friend. After that I had all manuals up until this spring and have only been through WV hills in a 2012 elantra that had slap stick auto and never had to force a downshift. Well see when we take my trailblazer to Tennessee this winter if I need to drop it out of 4th.
  16. 2 years before cash for clunkers, I bought a 97 PLYMOUTH neon for $100.00. It had 150,000 miles on it and I drove it for 2 years and when I sold it it had 230,000 miles on it. In that time I replaced.. 1 windshield - $0 covered by insurance 4 tires - $100 for all 4 (found them hiding in stock room at work) 4 struts and springs - $80 found all 4 brand new at a pull a part. 1 radiator repair - $45 1 alternator - $100 1 brake line - $20 Less than $500 into this car and drove it for 80,000 miles. It had a SOHC that I ran 20w-50 in to keep the valvetrain quiet. It was a manual transmission that required only the clutch for starting and stopping. It never left me stranded and only almost killed me when the break line went out but that's why I had a working hand brake. But sorry dude. After cash for clunkers there are no cheap cars worth a damn anymore. Oh ya I drove it back and forth from Akron to east Cleveland 6 days a week for 2 years. And would co stantly get 40mpg and sold it for $1000.
  17. Honestly. You are probably using it wrong. Not nit picking or critizing but with traction control and stability control you have to relearn how to drive. When tires are in good shape and systems are functioning correctly you point the steering wheel where you want to go and let the vehicle do the rest. No more steering into the turn. You have to drop that mind set. Point and shoot and don't manipulate the throttle, the vehicle will do that for you
  18. I haven I only did a few. I ended up quitting that dealer and going to an independent shop not long after ford started using them. So I didn't see one after that until I started at the bmw dealer in 2009 and I would only see them in the occasional used car when we were slow but didn't work on any. But I've been out of the field for 4 years now so I don't keep up with it too much.
  19. $4000 I really need to sell this. Have a serious financial emergancy.
  20. They didn't have many issues on the Fords I worked with. The manufactures sure are secretive as fuck with it though. If you did a fluid change, you put the fluid in a special bottle and sent it back to ford. If you got authorization to replace the transmission a Ford rep would show up watch you take it out and lock it in a crate and send the key for the crate back to secret lab headquaters. Now this was 10 years ago, and they sure have come a long way.
  21. And every forum review says that magazine editors are turd muffins for complaining about the fueling. Even BMW cars after using throttle by wire for nearly 20 years now and not even using the throttle control aiflow today... Yes there is always a stumble. That's like some wine tasting professional dick head saying a 13$ bottle of wine is shit when 99.9% of people will enjoy it.
  22. Warranty. What's that. This is why I don't buy a new car. Ever. Or even one with existing warranty. Chances of something going bad in 3-5 years or up to 60,000 miles is very slim. Unless you're buying something German. Teehee

    Allergies

    I've found all my environmental allergies can be kept at bay by limiting sugar and drinking plenty of water. I keep a can of sailen spray with me at all times to flush my nose out and that all I do.
  24. Tis not warm. Its not even like room temp. It basically has the chill removed. Also its the British who drink warm beer, not the Irish. And the British only drink it warm because Lucas makes their refrigerator electronics.
