Just arrived home, near Seattle, from Toledo, Ohio where I bought my car. Had a great drive across most of the country after getting a new stereo installed. Today I changed the plugs and put in some Magnecor wires - very smooth. This however was not the 45 minute job advertised. Took a little longer but was fun.

The problem with America is stupidity.
I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment
for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety
labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

Congrats man.. I had a great time driving mine 700 miles after I bought it too, and that was in a thunderstorm that followed me for 300 miles. I've had it a month now and am still like a kid opening a Christmas present. The only thing I have to wait for is the spring, so I can save a little and then start doing a few mods.
