    Jordan remove your lip spoiler while on I-10. I-10 is littered with road kill and critters that dart into the road in Arizona and NM. We hit a freakin turkey or similiar large gamefowl in Arizona that just darted in front of the car for no reason last Feb. It finished breaking the stock 90 is lip spoiler after other the other crap in the road cracked it.At least the plummage flying every was hilarious. :)

          Austin is a great city. Lots of stuff for college aged people to do because of the University of Texas and all.

          Congrats and good luck.

            Congrats on the new job, Jordan. That'll be right up your ally. I work with a few people from Texas, and they all miss it.

            I'll quote Bowling for Soup now.

                        Oh man that is SOME change. I wonder if they'll convince you to swap an M50 in your car lol. Anyway, goodluck with the relocation and the job. Try to steer clear of the politics and enjoy what you do. With a roadtrip that long definately make a stop in LA to hang out.

                                Terry said not in Austin, but in Sept it will start. Either way my cat works great and I should pass without any issues. If not Terry can make it pass :)
