wow, first day post in the IHoP.. i haven't had that in awhile... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

the trigger reach isn't enough for me, the backstrap to trigger is far to narrow for my paws. that said, all reviews indicate that the xd is a natural point and shoot firearm. though there is nothing sub compact about the xd, or glock, for that matter IMO. most polymers are still too bulky for true concealed carry. so, they knock 2" off the barrel and 1 1/2" off the grip, the damn things are still fat, lol. and that's what gets you seen. but that's just opinion. mine. overall, i've yet to read anything bad about an xd. speaking of glock (i really like my g21sf), while at the gun shop saturday, some guy comes in complaining about his glock jamming every third or fourth round and wants to trade it in (he bought it from a buddy). talking crap, saying how his is a pos and looking at different firearms. he looks at a sigma and makes a comment like " oh, this is one of those weird polymer guns", lol. same thing about an xd and a m&p. of course, the sigma is almost a dead nuts copy of the glock, save grip shape and trigger safety, and come to find out, the glock he was shooting didn't even have a factory mag. it had some no name brand mag in it, and he couldn't figure out why it was jamming. yeah, another uneducated man, thinking he knows firearms, not knowing shit. he even made a comment about an ea witness being a cheap import. ummm, ok. sorry for the rant... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

springfield xd,huh? how you liking it so far? wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

probably not, lol. she's wanting to downsize some. i've got room in the attic and the crawl space to have some fun though. been thinking about overhead speakers and floor sub. hide everything, fill the room with sound. bad idea? wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

ahhh....i'd still like to have a pair, just because. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Pffft, maggies are actually fairly cheap. You strike me as a guy who would want more midbass out of them though Kent. I think a pair of BIB's with some 6" or 8" drivers would better suit you. i don't even know what a BIB is, lol. but the wife is wanting to change up the living room and get rid of teh rack system. and they might be fairly cheap, but i have quite a few "irons in the fire" at the moment, one of which is that colt python. more money going at then coming in. not too mention 6 birthdays and christmas this month and three more birthdays in january. can you say broke? wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

stop posting pics/links of maggies damnit! i can't afford them at the moment and you guys are giving me the "i wants" pretty badly!! wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

i'm in no big hurry as i'm not a ford fan. plus i know the camaros and possibly even the challangers are coming soon. so i either get a great deal, or i wait. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

que? He complained earlier about some interior light problems he was having (not sure on specifics) from when he changed the map lights and dome light to led's. I think the problem is that they are very dim without the engine out. Maybe you guys are onto something with this bad battery nonsense....never knew that would cause noise. teh battery acts as a noise filter for the alternator. bad battery= bad filter= noise in the system. i'm sure helo or ///m5 can explain the reasons why a lot better then myself, so i'll just leave you with that layman's explaination. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

welding wire is plenty strong, and will allow plenty of current flow, and for good reason, lol. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

going to go talk about the mustang tomorrow. see what kind of deal we can get... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

nice..the new mounting depth will free up alot more install options. can't wait to see photos of the new models. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

that is just nasty, lol. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

no it won't. unless there is shielding missing on something. something would have to be physically wrong with the cables for enough noise to be picked up and heard. Not to mention a HUGE ripple on the power from the alt (bad rectifier or battery might cause this but usually it still isn't picked up by the signal cables but gets in through the power supply itself). ty sir for finishing the thought, lol. most people don't realize a bad battery can introduce, rather, allow noise to be introduced. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

weak, i removed a part of my finger with a flush bit and just a piece of gauze and some tape later i was back to work, lol. ask james herren over at termpro (gameoverstreeta) he witnessed the whole thing, and got quite a laugh. anyway, your not worried about fumes and possible spark from plugging in/unplugging the charger? pretty pimp install, you have skills bro! wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

my dad just recently bough a 99 4 door xj with the 4 ltr. 126k on the odometer, it's a solid truck, needs a few things (like me to make it go boom, lol), but overall, i'd own it. i think he paid $3500 for it. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee good year ! and nice price too if fuel prices and taxes would be low, i'd buy a 4.0 in a heartbeat. although once you register a car over here, you pay taxes for the motor it was registered with. so a motor swap from an identical model and identical year means same taxes. but i just can't let go of the 2.5 diesel fuel consumption i'd snag the 2.5 diesel before the 4.0ltr, lol. jsut for wow factor. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

and there aren't any maggies listed on my local craigslist, damnit, lol wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

that's pretty sweet jim. i think i want maggies now too.... ryan2, that's usually howit works. and they'll howl over how guns kill people, like they are automated, and forget it actually takes a person to operate the damn thing. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

no it won't. unless there is shielding missing on something. something would have to be physically wrong with the cables for enough noise to be picked up and heard. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

lol, wow. sounds like you're going to have fun. and nice topic. that's about as much fun as euthenasia (sp?), abortion and religion. no matter what side of the argument you are on, your biased. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

sticker with the shelby options shows 23 highway, original sticker shows 25 highway. the trailblazer gets 16.9, the silverado 15-16 (lately been on the 15 side. i have a heavy foot, lol, when i'm in my truck. i love the torque) my hooptie gets 29-30. also, the 5.0 i was going to buy, i gave back. no pics ever taken of the car, lol. i have pics of my bro-in-laws 5 ltr. it's actually a 306, with cobra heads/intake, 100 shot of NOS and msd6 iginition. it's a solid car, dyno'd just over 300 rwhp. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

true, but the wife and i each average about 300 miles a week for work. her jsut driving to and from and me chasing all those sumbitches that don't pay. so it doesn't take long to add up the miles, lol. so fast in fact, the $1000 i spent on the hooptie i've already earned back at work. and it's a given i'll drive between 200-300 mile s aweek, and her work is 35 miles one way. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

well said. i've even see shootouts where at the end, everyone wanted the keys to the vette to drive home due to the fact it coudl keep up with the exotics but return a better ride, cruise control and cup holders (i remember that from a c&d shootout) i guess if chevy were to step out from what the corvette was intended to be (exactly what it is, a sportscar for everyone), then they could indeed take that sweet ass motor and drivetrain, remove even more deadning, tune the suspension to the point it hurts, shave a few more pounds by using kevlar/cf everywhere and add another $50k to the price tag and it would get more respect. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
