It's not about money, it's about CHOICE. I struggled through college and I make a shitload of money. Now, if I wanted to go and be a mechanic, I could do that. Or I could do something else. If you don't finish college, it's limits your future. There are a lot of people who never went to college...

How are you paying for school? If you have the money available, what about going someplace and getting your ASE Certification, if you want to be a mechanic. What about transferring to a school and major in something to do with cars, like mechanical engineering or design? Or go to a local tech...

Gift certificate for a day at a spa. YOU CANNOT LOSE. She'll come back relaxed, happy, and looking better than she did when she left.

A buddy of mine has E-code lights on his Audi Quattro. He has 100W highs, 80W lows and a set of 100W Hella driving lights on his front bumper. He flashed me once and I think the paint almost melted off my car. Amazing thing about the E-codes is that even with 80W lows, there is NO glare to...

Wow, really? I had big Hellas on my old Audi, and they would blind anyone in front of me unless I aimed them WAY down. But that completely defeats the purpose of the lights. I guess it depends on the light and where you mount it also. Make sure you post when you get them on, I'd like to see the...

Here's the thing. The fogs are on with the low beams, and switch off with the high beams. That's completely opposite of what you want with the driving lights. Driving lights should be ON with the high beams, and off with the lows. I'm just not sure where in the wiring setup the "switch" is that...

How are you planning on wiring them? I was thinking about doing this also, since I barely use my fogs, but hadn't really thought about the switch wiring.

Did you get driving lights, or fog lights?

I think driving with your fogs on all the time just makes you look like an ass, so I don't do it. If you want to, go nuts. Personally I think it's about as cool and sensible as driving with your wipers on all the time. SUVs and trucks are another story, since their fogs are right in my eyes...

Actually that's not the definition of a police state. But no, I wouldn't want a cop on every corner but I could think of a lot worse things. Like no law enforcement at all.

But how is it any different than if a cop was standing there and saw him speeding? Just because it was a camera doesn't make a difference. The reason no points are assigned the owner of the vehicle is because they DON'T know who was driving. If you loaned your car to someone, then get them to...

Oh puh-leeeeze. Explain then how it's an invasion of privacy.

How could it be an invasion of privacy? You were traveling on a public road. You were speeding, you got caught. Pay the ticket and move on.

Kahuka - what model Pioneers are they? I may be interested in that.

I'd like to upgrade the speakers in my P5. Just something modest, not looking to spend much money. So here are my dumb questions: - Is there a huge advantage to component speakers? - If I just get some new 5x7s for the front, what do I do with the tweeters up by the mirrors? Anything? Like I...

I don't know either, but I enjoyed him as Ralph Furley on "Three's Company".

I started going to rallies about 6-8 years ago. I was (and still am) a big Audi fan, so we went with all our Audi brothers and cheered on the Sprongls, Bruno, Kemp, etc . There were TONS of Audis there. I hadn't gone for a couple years and I went recently and the roads/parking lots were ALL...

For the PC you can either get a PCI card (internal), a USB adapter (external), or an external adapter that connects to your existing network card. For the laptops you would want a PCMCIA card (I HIGHLY suggest an Orinoco) or a USB adapter. Seriously, spend the money for the Orinoco cards, since...

If you live in a place where the roads are more icy than snowy, get Blizzaks. They are fantastic on ice. They are also like driving on marshmallows. First time you take a corner, you WILL be terrified. If you live in a place where there is snow on the roads, you want something with a more open...

Quick quality story. I heard this was told by a former Chrysler VP to a trade group a few years back. He said when he was at Chrysler, they heard that Lexus used to pick a car off the assembly line, and lock a cat in it overnight. If they came back in the morning and the cat was dead, they knew...
