  1. Has anyone ever been so happy to get the wrong order? [media] [/media]
  2. I know it's easier said than done, but when you can't wash your car in your own driveway (wherever it may be), it's time to find a new place to live.
  3. Is there a thread about this? I'm just curious if it's someone's job to hit every new Vette with DS, VRT, etc. (and how can I get that job!) I've never seen it in any of the factory videos.
  4. Very nice taste in cars! I'm sorry to see you're going to the Euro side, but I'm sure you'll be back. Do you look back at your old rides and think, "If I still had that it would be blown/stroked/different wheels/paint, etc today...?" Obviously yours were pretty far down that path anyway, but I sometimes think back to what I had in my school days and where they'd be with time+cash.
  5. Like Like Like Like Like Like Like Like Like Like Like Like...
  6. What color is that? It makes me crave butterscotch!
  7. Depending on the statute of limitations in some states, I may or may not have pegged the speedometer in a few vehicles...on a closed course.
  8. I think I'd rather have both hands on the wheel rather than fiddling with a nitrous(?) button at those speeds. Also, next time I get pulled over I'm going to tell the officer I was testing the EZ Tag system.
  9. Slick setup. You can't even see the twin turbos under there!
  10. Given your location, you should also pick up some of the new Rinseless Wash to keep that new ride looking good despite the wintry roads.
  11. Admit it, you installed new carpet! Nice turnaround. And I'm glad I'm not the only one who uses Adam's products around the house.
  12. Good luck, but if all else fails, look at it as an opportunity. http://www.katzkin.com/ I'm just sayin.
  13. That really is short-sighted of Sears since the Craftsman tools got people like me in the store for other products as well. But it's not just them, Kobalt (Lowe's) and Husky (Home Depot) have gone the same route, too, though I've read some Husky is still USA. It's frustrating because I can't justify Mac and Snap-On for my use, but I hate to waste money on cheap tools.
  14. Unfortunately not. Check out Dylan's reply in post #7. http://www.adamsforums.com/topic/25359-is-there-a-2014-adams-calendar-in-the-works/
  15. Even in the future nothing works!
  16. Yes, but regardless of whether it makes 500hp, I can't get excited about a 4-cylinder Mustang (or Camaro, etc) just on principle. Don't get me wrong, as long as they offer a proper V8, I don't care if they sell a pedal version. I understand the business case, you have to sell base models to subsidize the performance models. I'm just confused on this since what I've read says the 305hp 3.7 V6 is the base model and the turbo 4 is a premium option under the 5.0. The EcoBoost is fine, but I don't get how it fits with the two current offerings. Maybe it will make more sense when they announce pricing, power, and mpg specs. As with certain aspects of the styling, I assume the EB 4 is largely a nod to the European market.
  17. Despite all the changes, the styling isn't the radical departure I kept hearing it would be. They did a good job making it look "like a Mustang," but you can tell they made some concessions for the European/world market (not saying that's good or bad, just a design influence). With a car as iconic as the Mustang, you'll never please everyone, but I bet they'll continue to sell well.
  18. Since I have a carport, I use the heck out of WW for touch-ups so this is great. You mention several times in the video that the spray method is inferior to the bucket method. Since I can appropriately saturate the panel and/or the towel with spray solution, what is the drawback?

    Tires

    I haven't run that particular model, but I've been pleased with every Goodyear tire I've used. The Wrangler is a very good all-terrain tire (as are the BFGs), and as long as you don't need a real aggressive tread pattern they should serve you well.
  20. Any underhood shots? Ya know, without proof we'll just think he stuck an LS7 badge on there...
  21. Let's see, she's a nurse, drives a Z71, and her Dad is a Snap-On dealer...MARRY HER!
  22. Will the Porsche share any DNA with the Audi, or do the VW overlords keep the brands separate?
  23. Fair point, and I agree that half tons are ridiculously huge these days. I guess my earlier post argued that the Colorado was too close to fullsize, but I didn't take into consideration that fullsize is now oversize. But I still wouldn't give up my Sierra for one.
