  1. That partial button sounds kind of cool. So is the brake tcs paramaters and logic completely different in that mode?
  2. Hoverboard, ahahhahah. Anyone ever seen the Ali G "Ice Cream Glove" skit?
  3. That shit should be illegal.
  4. That was funny when I read it six years ago as a freshman in college.
  5. Funny, I could have sworn that day we went to the BB when you and I both bought cameras was sometime the week before Christmas and not on a day I was 1200miles away from Columbus. My mistake. Did you keep coppies of everything?
  6. Them building better cars has little to nil to do with anything at the plant. I'm sure they are doing enough right (probably a lot) to build a car that last as long as it is designed to last and works as well as it is designed to work. Make the engineers, managers and bean counters drive the cars and you’ll get much better results. They would be doing the company a much better service if they gave the finger to the UAW and told them to take one of their cars and shove it up their asses.
  7. Lol. I went to the page you posted and saw it was another link and said "Fuck this, why wouldn’t he just post the page that originally had the joke on it? Why post a link with another link on it? Lame, close window." I just figured out what it was from the two peoples replies without even clicking on the link on the page you posted. Mostly Clark's reply because I'm sure he went around in circles with that for a few minutes and that's why he's pissed. If you fell for that, wow. That is pretty lame.
  8. If this is true, I don't know how it got associated with a personal hygiene product.
  9. Does anyone know the offset, bolt pattern, and the diameter of the opening the hub sits in (sorry, don’t know the technical term) for these off of the top of their head?
  10. I've never used but heard very good things about zip zoom fly and new egg. From what I've heard and seen you might be able to get stuff a little cheaper if you find the cheapest price on everything on price watch. But you don't get everything from one place and it's random if they are a good vendor or not. I've heard some horror stories. Not worth saving the few extra bucks imho. I'd stay away from Tiger Direct too, horrible customer service. Microcenter is nice because it's an actual store. They usually have some good deals on stuff too.
  11. Lol, as soon as you said you caught 1 I was going to suggest putting out the trap again because there very well could be more than 1. Hopefully you get all of them before they hurt anything.
  12. 100% correct. That and have the gun on you but not visible incase they do something that can be construed as threatening you or someone else’s life.
  13. I'm glad I heard a different story on that. The one I heard before was that he had the gun in the house, started to walk down the stairs with it, the guy had a visible gun, and the guy shoot him. What I just described is perfectly legal, and he shouldn't have gone to jail for it. That guy was trying to flee from the situation and while unfortunately he probably wouldn't have gotten caught, that guy had absoutely no right to take his life. The guy who shoot him and went to jail had no reason to use deadly force. This is a text book perfect example of the laws working in my opinion. I'm sorry, the justice system is fucked up sometimes. But the simple rule is you can't protect property with deadly force, with physical force yes. You need to be protecting your life, or someone else’s life to use deadly force. Seems like a pretty fair assessment. Why did the guy feel the need to go out to his car and get a gun? Sounded like he wanted to shoot the guy, not 'needed' to. Think about what it would really take for any of you to take another persons life (not just you Brian, anyone on here), regardless of who they are. Not your macho bullshit answer on here, what you really think. I'm sorry but nothing in my apartment, or my car is worth putting a bullet in someone. No questions asked I would to protect another innocent person, I might think to long and get hurt if it were to protect myself though. Rick, I don't know if you are serious or on one of your internet rants trying to freak out someone/piss them off. You have to understand and think about what can be considered deadly force. If you go out with a baseball bat, hit the guy in the side of the head as hard as you can, and he drops dead. Your probably going to jail because you used that baseball bat as a deadly weapon. And once again, you cannot use deadly force to protect property. I'd just hate to see you go to jail over protecting something as petty as a car. Please don't respond to me if you don't know how the laws work (at least in this state).
  14. Sorry for picking on you man. Hate to kick a man while he's down, but it was the perfect picture. You'll get your car back soon enough, and own everyone you are so envious of for being able to drive their cars during the 'winter'.
  15. "Hey Kid, I'm a computer. Stop all the downloadin" Umm, yeah. I might have to get those off of you at some point too. Maybe when I finally come pick those pictures up.
  16. http://pds.exblog.jp/pds/1/200505/07/37/d0025937_14552624.jpg
  17. You guys are nuts, setting up races all the way out in May. I call Shenanigans!
  18. Maybe. He did just say he believed that someone came out with indestructible apex seals. I think that classifies someone as at least very gullible (a small step above mentally retarded).
  19. Than mine, yes. Than a new S4. Like someone else said, this car is still semi-factious at this point so that's completely dependent on what this car ends up being like, if they even make it (it's still a concept, not even a production concept). By 09' the S4 will be faster though. After having driven it the other day, I would own buy the S4 hands down over that car regardless of price difference. S6 and S8 are a similar story (the 07 s8 achieves 9.5lb/1hp and 0-62 in 5.1 sec, not too bad for a luxury barge). For the Camaro to hit that same mark it would have to weigh 3800lbs. I don't think that figure will be too far off. The S6 is in that same range. I don't doubt any of these cars could handle about as well as the Camaro. It’s splitting hairs. The RS4 would eat that car alive.
  20. I’m glad you have know I have no ideals. This is too much fun.
  21. Yes, no, no, matter of opinion. One out of four isn't too bad.
  22. Including the ones with the weak springs that they admited were bad? The ones that when Mike took them out of his car they had been curved a few mm a piece at the center from these weak springs?
  23. Wow, that sucks. It sounds like they are a chain. That mentality might just be at that one shop. Is there another one local or even a short drive away that you could take it to instead of that one? I would assume the warranty would be good anywhere. Maybe even get in contact with someone at the corporate level. I’m sure they would love to hear this story.
  24. That might be the most asinine thing I think I've ever read on this board. I'm sure they might have come out with something stronger, but that's just an ignorant thing to say.
