    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    I loved my Anaconda, but honestly the pistol I miss most is my Python. Now both guns cost a fucking mint. Crack habits FTL I'll take an Eagle in .44 Mag. Had one, never really liked it.

    Kate Upton is fucking amazing. If you disagree you might be gay.

    A Ford? No thanks Actually I love electrical problems, but I do hate when they are man made.

    Yes, but I am not sure if the schematic is going to be correct for Euros. I will need to know the engine, transmission, trim (SE, Limited, etc.), 2wd/4wd/AWD. I will need to know the specific system you need the diagram for, as I am willing to bet I will have 150+ pages. If you want information on accessories or optional equipment I will need specifics on those (for example if you want exterior lighting I will need to know if they are auto headlamps with DRL, or stereo diagrams I'll need to know if it has a premium system, etc).

    Well, the workouts they usually do are dumb, so perhaps you should insult her entire family.

    120E sounds quite fair to me. I wouldn't be afraid to bite on that.

    I am a mechanic. Shop Foreman and manager at a dealership group, and owner of a mobile diagnostics LLC which I operate after hours and on weekends. If competing I would go Yukon. It;s size is more conducive to a better resonance for output. The Suburban is much bigger. As far as Expeditions, you couldn't give me one. I am so fuckin sick and tired of fixing those big pieces of shit I don't even have the time to tell you. No offense Den, but Ford V8s suck dick. Do they make torque wrenches that cheap? My most recent torque wrench cost me almost $500. I've seen some Hazet torque wrenches in that price range. I need 20-100Nm, not a huge range and huge torque, that's why I mentioned that budget. Hazet makes some REALLY nice stuff. I have several of their magnetic spark plug socket offerings. I know they used to, and I assume they still do, provide the German Car Dealerships with their OEM tools. Their quality is similar to Kent Moore and Rotunda (GM and Ford dealership tool manufacturers respectively).

    Depends on your requirements. I have beam, click, and digital torque/angle wrenches. I only use my beams when setting preloads. I use my clickers most, as they are quick and easy to access, set up, and use. The Digital T/A wrench is awesome, but it takes time to set up. If I am doing torque to yield work (bolts designed to stretch, you will see a torque spec followed by a number of degrees) I will yank out the digital. Meh, that can be argued. I bet my clickers are more accurate then your beam right now. But I just got them back from calibration.

    Indeed. No offense intended, but goddamn they have a lot of issues. I hate hunting blind misfires and finding out the misfiring coil killed the ECMs. I current ramp the coils and see the ECM driver is trying to fire the coil. Put the coil in and find out the transistor in the brain is fucked too... "Yes sir, I know you just spent $1000 on coils and plugs, but now you need $600 worth of ECM and programming!"

    I was a bit pissed today. My new cart did not arrive like it was supposed to. He said as soon as it arrives he will bring it. I was also pissed that I have to buy a special cleaner for the matte black finish, and it is over $35 for 4 cleanings. Cocksuckers...

    Damn, they got all your money too? Or did your local liquor store run out of Double Oaked?

    The best thing about Buicks is their horrid resale value. You can get into a 4 year old car for under $3K. Sure it sucks if you want to sell every 2 years or so, but if you are in it for the long haul, the cost of ownership is nil.

    Regal GSXs are also solid.

    Budget and year models? I am a huge fan of Buicks for reliability, economy, size, power, and value. The Park Avenue Ultras are awesome. Plenty of power, reliability, room, fuel economy, and cheap enough to acquire. If you like roadmasters, you will love Park Avenue Ultras (supercharged 3800s)

    Not sure about diesel but I have found restrictive exhaust manifolds and open from the down pipe out provides better torque and horsepower transition in gasoline motors. I have tried large long tube headers and short small tube headers and found much better 60 foot times and overall 1/4 miles were considerably improved

    I decided to get that SnapOn cart. I ordered it today. I'll post some pics when it gets here.

    Fuck Ray Lewis. I hate narcs, and narcing your friends out for a murder so you don't do your time is bullshit. I hope he goes home a cripple.
