Flyin Miata

Yea don't buy that overpriced piece of shit, there are plenty of articles that show you how to use your laptop as a wireless bridge (mac or PC). I did it for two years until I could hardwire mine into the router. As long as your wireless router doesn't drop the signal all the time you will be fine.

I'm driving a regular FWD Honda Odyssey right now, and still had no problem doing the speed limit on 71 tonight. You'd think people would get the idea they are going too slow when semi-trucks had to pass them.

Don't think it's actually illegal to travel there. You just can't spend money or receive any gifts while there. I think "strongly discouraged" is the best way to put it.

The problem is when people think of a man's car, they think power not handling. What's the first question out of someone's mouth when they ask you about your car? Usually it's how much power does it make, not how many G's it can pull on the track. A lot of people just don't care about having a well rounded car. If having 700 hp and no traction makes someone happy, that's great. But I think driving the piss out of a car where you can actually push it to the limit on any backroad is more fun than just stepping on the gas and holding the wheel straight. Slow cars can be fun too .

OK. But how often do you see women driving a convertible Cobra? Out of all the ones I've seen, I can't remember ever seeing a woman driving one. Not that it doesn't happen, but it is rare.

And for a triple, my question is: are convertible Cobras or other high power muscle cars considered chick cars just because of the top?

YOUR MR2 SHOULD BE BETTER. I'll admit though, the interior on the last MR2's beats the shit out of the first and second generation Miatas. Haven't sat in a new Miata to compare though.

Well, the fact that 8 out of 10 times I see either women or AARP members driving other Miatas doesn't help it's image. The size is a lot of it. Small=cute to a lot of people, so no matter how much manliness you bolt on, people still look at it and say "hey, the Shriners called and they want their car back".

SERO was the old employee referral program. I have the same plan as you but only 500 anytime (which doesn't matter because I never come close to using them all), for $30 a month. I got it right before they changed the program and made it way more expensive. Either way, I'm in the same boat. I have a really cheap plan that got grandfathered in so I don't want to switch from Sprint, but their phone selection leaves a little to be desired.

SERO?

They are using fancy technology to distract people from the awful plot. It's sad that people will pay 12 bucks to see a shitty movie just because it has 3D. Sure, the special effects were great and all, but that's only one part of what should make a movie enjoyable.

Plenty of Americans out there pushing drugs too. Do you associate with them? Maybe you're just joking. I really hope so, because that is a terrible comment.

That's one down.

I think we got at least 4, maybe 5 inches of snow up North today. It was a close call getting my car to clear the curb after the plows pushed all the snow in front of it.

5 inches? I'm sorry, I thought this thread was about heavy snow . I'm pretty disappointed that we haven't gotten hit with any storms up here in Cleveland yet. Really looking forward to putting the blizzaks to good use.

Xbox streaming is so great. You can also stream to your computer through their website, it's nice to be able to take my laptop around and watch full length movies without having to go through illegal means.

I've read so many comments about how ugly this car is, and I just don't see it. I think it looks really amazing, and pays homage to it's predecessor. It's got that low slung look that just screams awesomeness.

Damn I didn't know that people buy these plans, I have the original 30 dollar/month SERO plan and was always thinking about how I could get some money out of it when I change companies.

I thought you only needed one line of "tread", as in just a single line around the tire, for it to be considered street legal here. I had some old Kumho Victoracers that I was told were technically street legal because they had one line around them, but I'm kind of wondering if what I was told was correct or bullshit.

Yea you should specify which model you are talking about. There have been Mazdaspeed versions of the Protege, Miata, RX-8, 3 and the 6. Not to mention that four of those five cars all have turbos. EDIT: should've read further, I would guess you're talking about the Speed3 since you said it was an 09.

These stupid numbers that change all day.

My dad still leaves his wireless unsecured at home, I've tried to explain multiple times why this is a bad idea. Maybe this will scare him into changing it.

I got hit with that bullshit last month. Not only was I late, but my car is still registered in an E-Check county so I had to buy a 30 day tag, drive back to Cleveland to get e-check, then pay the late fee AND the new tag fee. I sure hope I get a Christmas card from the BMV .

This is the same plan I have. It's tough at first to find good movies to stream but if you spend some time searching you can find pretty good stuff. They have some old Saturday Night Live sketches, a lot of good stand-up comedy movies, and a shitload of documentaries (not for everyone but I like that kind of stuff).

Go to their website, near the top is a tab that says "watch instantly". Those are the ones that you can stream to your Xbox. I would guess it's just not feasible for them to stream every single movie they have.
