  1. yes, it will have to be picked up all at once. when i picked up my bendpak lift, it took every bit of my car trailer to fit the lift on it---at least 12-15' long. they loaded it onto the trailer with a forklift--all of it was bundled with metal bands. you'll need al least 2-3 people to unload the parts. its heavy as hell. wish i had a picture of what it looked like on my trailer
  2. FUUUUUUUUUMMMMBBBBLLLEEEE!!!!!!!! sure, they're insanely fast, but can't hang on to the ball
  3. mph seems a bit low, but yes, that will be a 10 sec car, with a bit more seat time.

    just to clear things up---the bank owns your house--not you. when the house is paid in full, then you own it. especially, not when you depend on others to help pay the mortgage. dipshit
  5. my father in law had one, and had some mods as well---tune, exhaust, intake, and some appearance mods. i must say it was pretty quick for what it was, and i was impressed--i would honestly consider one if i didn't want to fork out the extra dough for a bmw/merc/porsche two seater. obviously, the turbo is THE only way to go.
  6. pretty sad season all around. all the controversy, bullshit, and to top it off--the big 10 is not good this year. can you imagine any big 10 team playing an lsu, or ok state?? as sad as it is to say this, the big 10 champ doesn't deserve the rose bowl this year.
  7. i would say leave it stock. the only non-stock parts i'd add to a motor that makes 140hp would be parts to improve reliability/ longevity. if you're trying to eek more power out of a 140hp 6 cylinder motor, you're doing it wrong. especially, if you're doing it n/a just my $.02

    big 10 is terrible this year. the talent is garbage. no teams are consistent. i just don't see a top 10 team in the big 10 right now, and the bcs standings reflect that. that and all the controversy off the field.

    joe pa fired

    disturbing, doesn't even begin to describe the grand jury report. the guy set this whole charity up to get access to troubled, young, impressionable boys---premeditated to the highest degree. i'm sure there will be more allegations, and more victims. we may only be seeing the tip of the iceberg. as a father of 3 young children, reading the report makes me absolutely sick to my stomach, nauseous. every parent's worst nightmare. the ball was dropped several times, and by multiple guilty parties. we'll see how this unfolds, but i have no sympathy for joe pa, or anyone else who had ANY knowledge of any wrong-doing. i see multi-million dollar lawsuits popping up in the near future against that university, and rightfully so. and to think, ESPN spent weeks uncovering OSU scandals involving receiving free tatoos and selling personal property?? wtf

    New Car

    i can't see the pics at work. can someone describe the car to me please.
  11. i'll have doss autograph a handgun for me. i wouldn't pay shit for an autograph--period. occasionally signing autographs is a tax that they pay for making the money they do.
  12. that car is just begging to be put out of its misery. welcome to the site. lol at moving from miami, fl to lima, ohio. you probably won't even realize you've moved. goot introduction, otherwise. didn't know they had a school in lima worth moving from florida, to attend.
  13. qb from oklahoma state looked impressive.
  14. pretty decent numbers. i'd almost expect more if you're running longtubes, and cams. maybe, you'll make a bit more as the motor breaks in
  15. it was a tough game to go to last year. i'm normally pretty laid back--it was everything i could do to prevent my brother in law from getting his ass kicked--he was being a douche though. even my wife got into it with some whale in front of us. it was priceless. my wife called this lady a 'fat pig', after she kept taunting us, in front of her husband (she was at least 240lbs and he was like 20 years older than her). her reply was fantastic: "i can lose the weight anytime i want, but you'll always be a trifling little ho". my reply: "come on now, we both know you'll never lose the weight". the campus/gametime atmosphere is incredible though. i must say i was impressed with the university in that regard
  16. uh, yes, do NOT do this. benadryl works wonders for stopping 'cast itch'. also, a very light sprinkling of baby powder. you can also get 'mole skin' from the drug store if he's having irritation from the edges of the cast. good luck. awesome teacher by the way, to come to your house and do the video. very few teachers who will do things like this anymore.
  17. getting ready to plant inflatable brutus buckeye in the front yard today. go buck's. its been a week of gloating for me. consoling these poor bastards here in wisconsin. "better luck next year", is a phrase i've used about 100 times so far.
  18. the last one of these i bought sucked. i think it was SA. everywhere you walked, gang members were immediately looking to kill you. i may have to buy this one though. looks good
  19. you're better off mowing yards to make money, with all the time/effort you will have wrapped up in dissassembling, advertising, and hassling with buyers. unless you do it for a living, and can handle it on a large scale, i would only reserve parting cars out to necessity (when you wreck your car beyond repair, and must part it out)
  20. definitely the '09+ my buddy has an ls6 cts-v with the manual. sure, its fast, good interior, etc.--but no comparison to the newer style--i could take his car with my stock GTO. sure, you can add a blower to the older V. i'd rather take the '09 with the existing blower, and the powertrain warranty. i have a rule about modding cars that i expect to drive long distances with young children in. plus, the magnetic ride suspension is incredible. there's a reason why this car has earned the praise that it has. if you want 550 rwhp you can get there with a pulley/tune, and have your reliability too
  21. dipshit on the main road from me has a wood burning shed---smells like a campfire 24-7, and puts smoke in our backyard. plus he's running a chainsaw and log-splitter constantly. i will probably go with geothermal at some point in the next few years when we put an addition on our house.
  22. talk to buzz on here---his is modded. mine is a thunder gray metallic 2010. i have a catback on mine, as well as the "3 car seat in the back row" mod. the recaro seats are incredible. i would definitely go with the auto, if this is going to be a family car. some of the '09's had issues where the tranny fluid was not full enough, causing early failure--covered under warranty. plenty of guys on the cadillac forum running pulleyed automatics with zero issues. my car only has 13k miles on it, but i got the rear end replaced due to a minor amount of gear whine at 40mph. kind of picky, but oh well. i've had no other issues other than a flat tire which was entirely my fault. i love the auto. admittedly, i'm not the best at launching/shifting a manual--but i'd have a tough time beating my v to 60mph in my vette. hell even my kids love the car http://img827.imageshack.us/img827/1788/dsc00257lv.jpg only gripe i have with this car is the gas tank is about 5 gallons too small. i average roughly 14.5mpg driving almost all city. the tank is way too small. best part about this car is that its an lsx---if you blow the motor, it doesn't cost $28k to replace
  23. sucks dude. my brother is at childrens, so he may have seen your boy--don't know if he was on call this weekend. good thing about kids is that they heal fast, and you'll be amazed at how well kids (even with disabilities) adapt to having body parts casted. good luck
  24. good luck with the sale. sharp car bump
