Everybody check your batteries before you go. Pepboys will do it for free. I just got mine checked today and found out that mine was nearly dead (I thought it was working a little bit harder to start recently). I don't count it as a mod, but I have a brand new energizer bunny under my hood (FYI: Sam's club was $20 cheaper than Autozone, Pepboys, and Advance Auto Parts).

I can keep going and going and going and..................................................



I actually had something kind of funny happen while I was purchasing the battery. A lady in line behind me saw the battery and said, "You must be powering something pretty big" I said "It's for my car", she said "It must be a small car"

So you guys know my battery is pretty tiny. It's 9"H x 9"L x 5"W. I felt like I was a kid changing the batteries in his RC powered toy car.
i thought it was an RC toy car. :shrug::laugh::laugh:
 
I certainly feel that way when I am next to a lifted superduty turbo diesel truck at a red light.

Try being in a 68' Aussie-spec MINI Cooper S and cruzin' around Woodward, you look up to everyone! Damn I wish I could drive it on the Dragon, although it doesn't have ABS, but does have disc brakes in the front and 10" wheels:cool:

Now to keep the post legit, make sure you bring your money down there, I remember my first trip I was about 1/2 hour into the trip and had to turn around:o

This actually brings me to a point: Do most places take plastic down there? I would rather not have several c-notes on my person. Keep some on me, keep the rest in the bank account.
 
The south is just as modern as we are, so yeah, they take plastic:laugh: BTW, the cabin would prefer cash as to get the discount though, so again, to keep this thread "legit"...BRING CASH!

Last year I got the same rate with my credit card, so I don't think you have to bring cash.

I didn't know she preferred cash last year. That's fine with me though. I really appreciate the rates we're getting, so I don't mind paying cash.
 
The rates are great, just make sure you bring your own linens as its a part of the deal were getting and don't forget about our free breakfast too, makes the deal even better:cool:
