  1. The diesels are nice. I've been driving a diesel Overland 4x4 at work and getting 29-30 mpg with some 80 mph mostly highway runs to the proving grounds and back. It's a pricey option though.
  2. It's launching very soon. Sledhead could probably tell you the exact date.
  3. I would buy one in a second if I could afford it.
  4. Reminds me of the South Park with the giant gay orgy to scare off the time travelers, lol.
  5. Yeah, she's been pretty good with the kids. My oldest was crying and wouldn't get off my or my wife's lap less than 10 minutes before that pic of them together. Drew was a week old and my oldest still wouldn't even look at him or acknowledge he existed before this session. We found her when she was still fairly new. Since then she's raised her rates several times and is getting pretty expensive. :/
  6. Except this is a GT car, not a supercar. I think it looks ok, but the doors don't open right and the hexagons are out of control.
  7. Thanks! Only 9 more to go! I really appreciate it.
  8. Cool car and not many of them on the road. Hopefully you got a good deal on it.
  9. Thanks. Who knows, she may still accept the comments left today. She said the deadline was the 3rd, I assume the worst.
  10. Yup, Michigan has similar laws. Anything purchased during marriage is community property, and the same can go for money earned AFAIK. Property you bring into the marriage can be retained as sole ownership (you gotta prove it). If you had funds set aside before marriage and never touched them during marriage you could have a case that all that money is yours. However, if you used that money for a down payment on a house it's suddenly community property (I.e. you can't claim you have a high ownership stake than your partner). At least that's how I understand it. I have coworker's who say they keep all their finances separate from their wife's in order to keep their assets divided in case they were to get divorced. This is total BS though, because they can still come after that money if it was earned during the marriage. At least that's how I understand it, but I've never gone through it.
  11. Thanks guys! Looks like we may have still fallen a little short, but I appreciate everyone's help.
  12. Looks like those times are on DR's at the track.
  13. We recently had our second child and did a newborn picture session. Obviously, the session and pics are pricey, but she said if we get 40 comments on the page we will have an extra print for free. It's always nice to have more pics so I'm wondering if some from CR will leave a comment at the link below. I put this on Facebook and emailed my family but we're still far from the goal and only have until midnight. Thanks! http://jenpphoto.com/blog/2014/09/drew-newborn-session-lansing-michigan-newborn-photographer/#comment-103330
  14. http://www.1800doorbell.com/driveway-alarm-products.htm Quick Google search, but may be similar to what you already have.
  15. Sounds like you could set up a light gate at the bottom of the driveway and link it to lights or an audible alert. Not sure if there is anything off the shelf you can buy, but a few months ago a coworker was talking about one that would make a doorbell sound every time it was crossed. He had to stop using it because of animals though.
  16. The photographer we use does these all the time and they are a big success for her. They're booked up almost immediately.
  17. Those 8 speeds today have a pretty good spread of gear ratios and can shift faster than a manual. The Hellcat auto is faster too.
  18. I think at least part of the concern is that it could always mutate and become airborne, although hasn't at this time.
  19. The Roush looks good, but the Hennessey looks better, IMO.

  21. So they held a drag race event at altitude with their turbos vs the competition with N/A engines. Curious how the numbers stack up at sea level.
  22. My wife left her S4 on the roof of her car and drove off. A tow truck driver found it on the side of the road and it was obviously run over and had slid on the pavement. Cheapo "incase" case was scrap, the button th the front is dented, but otherwise fine.
  23. http://m.motortrend.com/features/performance/1409_2014_motor_trends_best_drivers_car/ 2nd best drivers car ranked by MT.
  24. Alfa will be all RWD based vehicles. No FWD models anymore. Buy bye Giulietta. (I kinda liked the MiTo, though)
