I watched a woman in some kind of compact car mistake a right turn lane for a lane that went all the way down to the next driveway, slam into the curb dead on at 45mph, then just merge back into traffic and drive away like it was nothing. Her car went from 45 to zero when it hit the wheels and jumped about 2 feet straight into the air. She didn't even miss a beat. I was flabbergasted!

that's just good practice guys. laugh.gif laugh.gif



went to the local walmart yesterday. got out to the parking lot, all I heard was metal scraping pavement. See 2 ladies in a minivan driving up towards me slowing, windows down. the sound getting louder and louder. they were slowing down. I thought they were trying to check the sound but it turns out they just wanted the parking spot I was walking by. They promptly parked and went inside, no care whatsoever.

Sigh, I don't expect everyone to know everything about cars but there should be some basic fundamentals required since they effect the safety of the vehicle.

Rude!




Sure would be nice if UPS had actually given me four wheels though.

So in other news my brother traded the Miata for a 2009 Suzuki Boulevard M90, this doesn't help my sadness.

So funny story, Erin is in Denver for a Lacrosse game and I totally forgot you all live out there now. She's over by the Pepsi Center and went for a nice 9 mile hike around Green Mountain and whatever park that is around it. Seems like a nice area, flight and hotel was too expensive for me to tag along this time though. Might be out there next year for some games or possibly the may 5th game but that depends who's playing what and where and who wins against who and all that sports nonsense.

The UPS guy tried to bolt one up to the truck, that's why you are missing one.

Ummm... I blame Chee. He made me buy the wrong size! Darn it, Chee! I actually wanted 10.5’s but the offset was pretty lame for a Toyota, something like +22. It’s be way out past the fenders and Mexiflush just isn’t my thing.

How is she liking it? We’ve had awesome weather for the most part all winter. Right now it’s back and forth between 50’s and 70’s but it’s staying very comfortable. Nice area around the Pepsi center but too crowded for me so I avoid it as much as possible. I spend a lot of time around Green Mountain for work as well. You mean May 5th of this year? Hopefully you can make it out here May 5th because of reasons.

You know my opinion of people out here... this UPS driver is just another example. Four identical boxes on his truck that aren’t exactly small, each box labeled 1/4, 2/4, etc. with one master tracking number that shows it’s a four part shipment, and the guy still manages to not figure out that I’m supposed to get four boxes. We called UPS several times and they weren’t much brighter and were no help at all. The last wheel better arrive tomorrow. I paid for these back in November...

What's May 5th? Besides a Saturday.

She likes it, she doesn't like the sunburn. The pictures she sent looked great, reminded me of being out in the Dakotas somewhat but with more rocks and more people.

just need some 40mm 5x100 adapter spacers, with neochrome spiked lug nuts and a vape bro. you'll be cool in no time flat, which is how long it takes my 7a to reach 60mph.
