  1. It's better. I'll go first. Ready?
  2. I'll take the other one, or both if Powers wants to Ro-Sham-Bo for it.
  3. Sorry, it slipped my mind to make a post. We were re-constructing our server room and I had pull the CR server off-line for a few hours. I appreciate your patience. I'll have to take it down again for about half the time in another weekend or two, as we still have some work left to do. But I'll remember to alert you all BEFORE I pull it down this time. Thanks.

    Seriously? Not to take this off-topic, but do you really have to do that? I have a 5.4 in my 250 and they are PAIN IN THE ASS to get to!
  5. They uhhhh... kinda... rusted off. So I don't think you can really weld new pipes onto it. Maybe Tinman can help me out there...
  6. I'm getting ready to put my 1999 F250 up on the market. I just don't need a truck this big anymore, and I want to get another truck that fits comfortably in my garage. I currently owe about $2000 more than its "good condition" book value. So I know I'm going to have to eat some negative equity on it. I would like to lessen the blow as much as possible, and I'm considering doing a few things to try and improve the value before I sell. But, being that I don't have a lot of experience selling vehicles, I wonder if these items are worth spending my time and money on. Please tell me if you think these items are worth doing to increase the resale value of the truck: 1) Bed condition. The bed does not have a liner, only a rubber "pad" and the bed condition is pretty rough. I can have a new drop-in liner installed for $160. 2) Ebrake cable is broken. Not sure the cost here, I would assume a few hundred bucks. 3) Truck has a dump-muffler. Sounds good, but no pipes. New exhaust from Jegs is about $300. 4) Interior needs a good cleaning. Should I spend the money on having it shampooed and cleaned REALLY well or should I just spend a little time on it myself? 5) Passenger-side exhaust manifold leaks until the engine is warmed up. Mildly annoying, but goes away when it's at full temp. Not sure the cost here, but probably expensive and time consuming. Overall the body is in pretty damn good condition and the truck runs great! I just wonder if doing a few of these would return on investment enough to make it worth my while. Thank you for your thoughts.
  7. Just because I feel like it, I'm not going to delete this. I'm going to make it a sticky so people can ridicule you instead.
  8. I second the Matrix/Pontiac Vibe. Great car. Grand Prix would be a decent car for her too, but it is a pretty big. The GTP isn't awesome on gas, 25mpg is about average. The GT is about 28-30. Don't even think about a 3.1l SE. It'll tow though!

    I'm an ass

    I'm not worried. Sounds like "he'll" be meeting handcuffs too.

    I'm not convinced there really is a "room mate" /God
  12. Heh, next time it happens, tell them your chest hurts and your limbs feel numb (symptoms of a heart attack). They'll get you right in. Then, when the doctor comes, tell him that went away but your ____________ is fucked.

  15. I love it. It's the best thing since Windows.
  16. I need new luggage. Know any good stores in the Grandview, Upper Arlington, short north kinda area's? I work near Lennox Town Center, looking for a good store fairly close. Thank you.
  17. Hooked me up with my new xv6700. Love the phone DJ! Great service, and he saved my company money on our air-card plan and got us 500 more minutes a month for free with no change to our contracts. GO SEE DJ!!! (This is phone #2 that DJ has hooked me up with, BTW ) P.S. This: http://cache.vzw.com/images_b2c/phones/med/vzw_xv6700.jpg > *
  18. Thanks for the call, Anthony.
  19. I wouldn't have had such terrible punctuation.
