Let's see: miles per year for business use = 30,000; miles per year drag racing (personal use) = 35. (Trailer it to the race track). Percentage business use = 99.999. Come on IRS, lets see what ya got.

Being "forced" to take the camaro isn't a bad thing, but the drive home after work had me a little nervous. We had to stay late to do inventory, so didn't leave until well after 10pm. I get out to the car, and it's covered in ice. Of course, I have no ice scraper in the Camaro - she's my fair weather car! So I let her warm up until the windows were clear, not a big deal. But it was only 26 degrees out, and I still have the P Zeroes on
No big problems, thank God, but the front end (yes FRONT end) got squirrely when I drove over a slick manhole cover. After that, I bet the people behind me were wondering why I was swerving around manhole covers the rest of the way home!
I love Ladybug, and know she has great safety ratings, but unless I get some winter tires, I'll feel more comfortable when I get my SUV back, with it's 4WD and studded snow tires...
BTW - Credit card = ice scraper. Studded tires I can't help ya with.

Wow that is just so powerful and awesome! Great find! Thanks for posting that.


Skyman is couchman. Not to gross anyone out but does anyone have a lung I can borrow? Figured that with all the spare parts,hips,plates,nuts and bolts someone may have a spare.Falling apart here. Guess that case of food poisoning Thanksgiving Eve turned into pneumonia from aspiration.Thought it was just some bronchitis but ran a 100 degree fever and 0 energy. ER DR said chest Xray was abnormal and showed what appeared to be pneumonia and treating it as such. However they won't have results until Tues or Weds They don't read Xrays on weekends. Whats up with that? Thank goodness for WirelessInternet you all, Football and Meds. Would be going stir crazy here.Worrying to death.CodeineCoughSyrup chugged like a beer is kicking in quick Time for a nap

Thanks for the welcome everyone. I'm laid up and taking oxicontin for pain. Woohoo! But the Christmas tree is up and I'm all about football, meds, and camaro5. I should be up and about and going back to work in about a week hopefully.

Oh, I just ordered the Trifecta Tune for my V6. Has anyone had any experience with this? I here good things about it and good HP gains 13 avg and 25 hp in the 6000-7000 RPM range.

I should receive it next week. When it's installed I'll let you guys/gals know how it comes out. Happy Trails.

I hear ya. After almost 8 years and over 25 hospital procedures, I'm having a pain pump implant this coming week. Santa is bringing me morphine and/or dilaudid this year...

Feel better everyone!

Alright everyone, enough talk about narcotics - you're making me think about work, and I have a 4 day weekend so I don't want to think about work!!!
Seriously, though, I hope everyone's pain gets under control... with modern medicine, it is possible, and don't let anyone (ESPECIALLY your doctors!) tell you it's not....

Indeed it is. And it is the one I have found has the fewest side effects for me too.

Feel better soon SSBUSDRVR. I got my tree up today & will finish up with whatever else I do tomorrow. I'm not feeling like getting everything out this year. Now it is time for a little dark Bacardi & seven.
