The news: Stopped driving all over creation just for fun. My tranny 3rd gear syncro is trash. It works 'slow and easy' but no more 1/4 mile runs left in it. My 'check engine' has been on for almost a year. The secondaries stick shut when the engine is run hard, sometimes. I still drive F.A.S.T. Hoping I do not have to go get inspected this year as I am too cheap to fix anything. Everything else works. My dash finally warped... I have been sticking a jogging shoe wedged up against the curling lip and the windshield to keep it from pulling loose when I leave it in the Summer sun. (works) 68,000 mi and I hope this car will do another 4 years... I refinanced it to gain cash, 5% is ok for a used car rate. The last set of BFG 220/50 tires are UNBELIEVABLY LOUD at 55mph to 65mph... Good thing I drive at 75 to 80 all the time. Anyway, just stopped by to say hi. See you all ?? some anyway, in a few more years. A Contour? HAh HAH ha HAh ha hah hah ha ha....

And I still use my 130mph brake cleaning method... #1002108 07/12/04 04:57 AM

She was talking about her new tires, rooster tales in the rain and all and I asked her what she had as I was shopping for new ones and that I had a stock SE. Her answer was something like "hmmm stock". That was in the pre UBB days. Keith W 98.5 SE Sport ATX Lt. Denim Blue Other car '02 3.0 Duratec Taurus wagon Want some real political discussions?
