Have to wait till tonight to check out how much improvement the headlights make. Right now I need to go find a big empty space to tune my antenna. The radio sicks out a little too far to get a good view from the drivers seat, so I am going to make one of the mounting holes a little longer, front to back, so I can twist it a few degrees towards the drivers seat.

Now to find a good PA speaker so I can annoy people

New engine is in, but now we're going into Week 2 of the motor not catching! It cranks, but won't start. Good fuel pressure, got spark, no codes thrown. CPS changed, fuses & relays good. All wire connections and grounds look good. Having a company come in to completely read the ECU. Hope to find out where the problem is. Frustrating!

I think you either need to either find a job closer to home, or move closer to work. When I was younger I was doing 35 each driving an 85 2.2 Charger. Working shifts and 70 mile round trips got to be too much. ended up moving to the same town I worked in, then got a layoff 2 months after I moved

Got my oil changed, I felt bad letting somebody else touch her but it's been too damn cold to work on the jeep.

Yeh, I have a daily, but I chose to drive it on a rainy day. There is no way around a good career and a good place to live imo. I like living on the outskirts of the city and the city pays more money here in Dallas/Fort Worth. Not bad considering everywhere takes 30 min to get to. It's a big city and I've been doing it for years.

To me a big city is Toronto or Montreal, they are just pin ****** compared to places like Dallas/Fort Worth even if you add TO and Montreal together


Just got back from a night test of the E-Codes I thought the Putco harness and OEM sealed beams were an improvement, but these things are like the sun suddenly came back out, and the high beams are even better. Best part is that not a single on coming car flashed their high beams to me

When was the last time you were in the GTA dude lol. It takes over an hour to get anywhere if it's not the middle of the night. Fourth largest city in North America!

Umm 15 to 20 years ago I don't like going to Toronto, I am a small town boy I went to Montreal a few times in that time because I like Schwartz's smoke meat sandwiches and it is only a 2 hour drive.

Great now you have me thinking about that now so I am going to have to plan a trip in again

Oh geez, that's not even since Amalgamation!!! It's much more tolerable as a pedestrian. At least DOWN-town, anyway! It's always under construction, streets are insane, and a lot of drivers deliberately take their license road tests elsewhere so they don't have to know how to actually drive in Toronto :thumbsdown:

mmmmmmmmmmmmm I would be surprised if there isn't anyone within a 500 KM radius that doesn't know about Schwartz's Deli. Last time a friend was through there I had him bring back a pile of smoked meat

Don't let tards on the 401 get to you... The new street cars are fun!
