  1. You don't need snow tires, you need to just have a clue unlike 85% of Columbus drivers. "Oh no a snow flurry, let's go 45MPH on the highway."
  2. I'd go to Columbus State, IMO. That would be your best education for the buck. All the other automotive technology schools are a waste of money since education is not a huge part of this field, it's mostly experience. I went to school and I thought I knew a ton, until I started working at a dealership. I have since learned so much more than just going to school. Just be aware that it is verrry expensive. Don't ever cheap out on your tools, b/c you get what you pay for. I have about $7,000 in tools right now and my box small box is only half full. I pay around $55 a week in tool bills. I also didn't graduate from college and I'm doing rather well for myself. I'm already making more money than half of my siblings who are 30+ years old. ASE certs do help you get a job, but it's mostly experience when someone is going to hire you.
  3. I'm 21 with 2 points and my insurance is about $48 for liability for my daily driver. The 240 isn't ready yet.
  4. Yeah, discount passes are $250 this year, compared to last year being $150. It's retarded. Oh well, nothing better around here.
  5. I'm pretty quick on a snowboard. 220lbs with a 161 creates some speed, bring it.
  6. Quoted for truth. You'll never earn any money on that "investment".
  7. Man I got a 32" LCD HDTV for $480.
  8. The only bills I have are my Snap-On payments which are about 6%. :-X I'm buying a house in the next month or so, and it'll be around 30% of my net income.
  9. I believe I've seen the video before, but I'm at work right now and can't watch it. People who take their cars to shops like Jiffy Lube almost deserve it, you get what you pay for in the car business. Sure at a dealership an oil change runs you $30, but you're getting an ASE certified tech that works on the same cars everyday and can just look at the car and tell you everything that's wrong with it. I'm sure independent shops are similar, but I'm sure I could pinpoint something on a Saturn a lot quicker than an independent shop tech just b/c I work on them all day everyday. But at Jiffy Lube you have 17 year old kids who know hardly anything about car except how to rotate tires and oil changes.

  11. I don't know how many Grove City graduates are here, but I just found this out and decided to tell everyone as I thought it was weird. Class of 2004. http://www.myspace.com/presleymaddox She was a very popular cheerleader, so weird to see her a huge pornstar. lol Anyone else know her? Shanel was her real name.
  12. I ended up getting exactly what I wanted. 32" LCD HDTV flatscreen. I'm happy, tired, but happy.
  13. I'm going to the GC Bestbuy, gonna try to snag a 32" LCD flatscreen. Black Planet Earth snowboard jacket and some grey Hollister sweatpants.
  14. Clutch, radiator, new engine harness, strut bars, paint, wheels.
  15. Who honestly deserves to be in the game then? Notre Dame if they beat USC, not really. They lost to Michigan, so Michigan wins out there USC, no they lost to an unranked Oregon St. plus will most likely be beaten by Notre Dame. Arkansas, well they still have a beat a tough LSU team, but I still don't believe they will be in it. It all goes back to Michigan who has been highly ranked all year and only lost to the #1 team by 3 points on the road. Michigan is the only obvious answer.
  16. The winter usually is a slow time. I've been consistently turning 12 hours a day though here at Saturn. Our slow period is usually around February. I think the North Saturn store is hiring a tech off 23N. If you go in to try to get the job let me know and I can recommend you possibily.
  17. DId you go to the hospital? You may not feel anything right now, but 2 years from now when you have cronic back pains you would have wanted to. I've known more than one person that has happened to. You should also go get checked out.
  18. I use intertops for sports gambling. It makes it more interesting. $10 bet in Parlay could cash you $22g's if you hit it right.
  19. I believe I've heard about you here before. I'm a tech at Saturn West. I've heard people talking about a guy that used to work here with a really sweet red RX7. I started up with a mint '82 Toyota Celica GT and was unemployed. Traded for a mint '85 Toyota Corolla AE86. Then traded that for a '88 Toyota Celica All-trac. I have sold that now I have a '94 Saturn SL2 DD and a '90 Nissan 240SX and I'm a service tech at Saturn West and I'm expecting a child in April.
  20. It's hideous. Not to mention that Apex kid is a retard.
  21. Yeah, worst one yet. Not even funny at all, how does a car shave?
