Last week was a terrible week. After reaching 100,000 and purchasing new tires I completely ruined the excitement of enjoying the next few years. On my way to class here in tampa I was stopped at a light near Busch Gardens. as the left hand turn light went green I began to accelerate, got...

I had this issue around 80K miles. I would have a rough idle at lights, rpms would drop, and eventually the car would shut off. Never had it happen while moving. Sometimes it wouldn't start back up right away. I was off at college so I drove the car home (5 hours) dropped it off at my...

I hear ya, if you lived close I'd give it to you for nothing. I'd look through ebay...theres always deals and items up there.

hey this is how I ended up getting mine. scour ebay for sellers who are parting out ST or X sports. most of them are salavage dealers anyway. I found someone who had pictures of a high series in the add (they were selling something different) and contacted them. Then we spoke on the phone...

I have a factory radio bezel. made for the fog light and I have the fog light switch with the connector and some cut wire. Although It doesn't have the rear window switch or indicator (does the 05 XLS have that?) so you'd need to swap those from yours. heres the catch. I sprayed it with...

Bernard- I've been all over this state. Tallahasse for college, tampa for college parents live in Palm Harbor, lived in riverview while attending USF. I'm not to familiar with the area but I've played baseball down there next to the base. thats about it. Not sure what you're talking about...

Ahh, bernard I move around so much. I lived in riverview off 301 about 5 months or so ago. The house I was renting went into foreclosure so I had to move out. I'm renting a small place over off the veterans near westchase. Im not sure if you're familiar with the dog track but I live 2 mins from...

ahh, good call Jerry. I figured as much. Should have just clicked his profile link. it says it right there. :banghead:

Jerry I plan on doing something. I just have to wait to find some of the rub. Nothing shows yet but I can feel it. Once I get a good idea of exactly where I'll do something. JohnJR- I'll for sure keep track/a log of what these tires do. They are my 100k gift to myself. first set I bought...

After a bunch of looking around, reading, searching, reading again, and reading some more I've decided on a set of general grabber At2. Aggressive tread and set right in my price range. I literally got them mounted today and drove it to class then home. I've done the TT & Shackle gig and I've...

what size tire?? I did the TT&Shackle and mine doesn't look that raised. by the way...great color:supercool:

I hit 100,000 just this past weekend also. Since my parents signed it over to me I've taken a new found appreciation for making the another 100,000!

Old Bridge huh. I used to live off Englishtown Rd and Randolph ave as a kid growing up. Right across the parking lot of St Thomas. Wow its been a long time. I moved in 94 to Freehold and now live in Tampa Florida. I used to ride my bike to raceway park for car shows/bike nights all...

I have a gray overhead lying around. functional just no wiring harness. I'd let it go for the cost of shipping

what color? I have a grey overhead laying in the garage. No wiring harness though. I'd let it go cheap
