    Your shop floors are big and smooth enough for me to do a Jack test without driving off the Jack. Haha.

      Car handles nice now that the springs are in and the car is aligned, I bet it would have handled even better had I remember to attach my sway bars. ;)

            let me know if/when you have a detail day. i need to put some shine back into my beast. plus it'll give me a reason to come down there.

            arghhh, i need tires. might hold off till i can find a set of wheels, as there is no real need to drive to work. the bus stop is a block from work. maybe im just lazy and want my coffee in the morning from starbucks, which is now turning into a real wallet breaker. damn that shit is expensive. even getting just brewed coffee, im spending about 90 a month for just coffee. then i see what my wife spends, and im not that sad.

                    Roasting your own coffee is a fun and easy way to save money and get great coffee. Read around Sweetmarias.com - get a popcorn poper, you're good to go. A pound takes about 40 minutes

                      I understand the tires and the prep for if you go over the passes and go skiing and that. But the people who live in the greater Seattle area who buy studded tires and drive them around for 6 months of the year annoy me. Stop complaining about the roads when your the ones ruining them.

                      Also, when i snows none of you even attempt work anyway, last year i saw literaly no one on the roads, when there was only like 4 in.

                      I moved here from Wisconsin, this is nothing.

                          Up until last year I daily drove my trans am on 19s through the snow and never really had an issue unless some moron stopped on a hill in front of me. I put some snow tires on the e30 last year and it was a freaking tank! Little bastard went anywhere I wanted, through snow drifts, up hills and even down some logging roads. It was great.

                          Not to quibble, but Wisconsin snow is a completely different ballgame than PNW snow. Around here we don't get the build up that makes it easy to move around on. It snows, it melts, it slushes and then freezes. It snows a tiny bit again and people think they can drive on snow covered ice. It doesn't take much common sense to drive around on but the general public seem to lack that common sense...
