    What's up with the people here who want to show headlights, trunk shots, and balls (bearings)? I mean, I understand a "success pic", but have some class, people.

    You guys have surpassed my expectations in cracking me the hell up!

    By the way, I just got a FR from somebody and they have nothing but hot little exotic sports cars in their friends list. Think they're just a friend collector / creeper?

    Every FR I send comes with a photo of the "trucknutz" that I have hanging from my tow hitch.

    Let me see your bumper stickers!

    did you get them because they meant something? Did you just like the art or was it a drunken mistake you regret? And please don't bother replying if all you're going to say is "bumper stickers are nasty, it's like putting a tattoo on a fitness model." This may not be the thread for you. Mkay? Thanks.

    I see so many people out there driving while reading or texting on their cell phones. Obviously they can't be driving as fast and therefore not burning as much fuel...

    I refuel every two hours because it revs the engine and I don't gas up after 6 even if I know I will run out of gas.

    I keep hearing "fuel is fuel" and "fuel in / fuel out" on this site! Seriously, not all fuel is the same!! Look at these studies that show that higher quality fuel results in better performance, especially for you highly active turbo engine drivers...

    You're not fueling enough. Your car is going to stall. You should calculate MPG and MPH and fuel something between them, but never below the one.

    My car keeps cutting out at WOT, but only on a 2-3 shift. The 1-2 shift is fine. My neighbor, who used to live next to a mechanic, said that my fuel injectors need to be cleaned. My sister said that my car doesn't have fuel injectors, it has a carburetor. Do you think that maybe my carburetor needs to be cleaned? What do I use to clean it?

    Some of my coworkers think that it is because I have changed fuels to something better for my car, and that I should go back to using the junk gas that they use. Personally, I like the junk gas, cause it's cheaper, but everyone else tells me that I should continue to use the good stuff. I will, but not if it is causing my problem. I think they are just trying to keep me at their level and not wanting my car to run better than their cars.

    Don't tell me to take it to a garage, as I know for a fact that those guys have no clue what they're talking about, and they only want to take my money. My nephew knew someone whose friend took their car there a few years back to get an oil change, and they ended up with two extra cylinders and a slipped disk brake.

    I hate to tell you this but you have to go to a mechanic to determine if you have fuel injectors or a carburetor. But don't let him tell you about which gas is better for your engine, he only went for mechanic school and they barely cover and of the science behind fuel. What you need is a Petroleum Engineer to help you figure out what you need and your true MPG.

    I also think your friends are jealous of all the upgrades your car been having.
