Man is Accounting a boring class. :( thank god I'm not the one paying for me to take this class. I sure hope I don't have to use it, or at least use it to the extent of setting up our own accounting dept for my dept |
Strawberry Hill is on fire again..... at least this time im not floating down the river as it burns.... Strange tho... its at the top near the communications tower, but its been cold, freezing rain, and snow for the last days.... wtf could be burning? anyone hear anything about it? |
when did you see smoke? it could've been my dept doing some slash burning today. I'm not sure where they were. |
I didnt see smoke.. all i saw was bright orange flames.... its been about an hour or so now... way up above the communications tower.... we thought it could be slash burning but i just can make sense of why it would be all the way up there... as the road up there is really narrow and shitty on a good summer day... weird |
oh that prob wasn't them then, cause they finished the slash burning by 3.... Hmmmm... we have snowmobiles that they were utilizing for wherever they were slash burning.... I guess I should start paying attention to where they are doing the slash burning, lol |

A very good friend of mine just bought an 04, theyre awesome looking inside and out. The interior looks like a luxury car, it would be my first choice for a newer truck. |

Although the new generation silverados have an optional vortec max package with 365hp/375trq, and multiple displacement where it shuts off half the cylinders for fuel economy on the 6L engine, which is one up on the fords for sure. |

lots of the 99+ chevy small blocks all have piston knock when cold, even my 5.3L does. It's a design flaw they created when trying to make power with lots of piston to cylinder wall clearance for efficiency... needless to say they were off by a thou or two. It's a disturbing sound to hear, but apparently does no long term damage to the cylinder walls, mines at 180,000km and never uses a drop of oil. |
3rd Time being stuck in the driveway since friday. Funny how it happens concidering we've got a flat driveway. Fuck I'm already starting to hate rwd. I cant park on the road due to all the snow, nor can I park in the yard. I'm really starting to hate parking down the road. |
what snow? get some real tires suited to the seasonal conditions. |
easier said than done. Only had the car on the road for 3 days, between a new trans, clutch anf misc parts, I didnt budget new tires. Unfortunately I'll need low pro 16's... Little harder to find these at the wreckers |
then dont buy them at the wreckers. buy some real tires. goto canadian tire and get something there. im sure you've got a pile of canadian tire money laying around |
in a pinch some Nexxens from Wal Mart should do....though they're most likely not very well suited for the weather we've been having |
maybe just be like marshall (prosho) and have a mis-matched set of wheels with cheap winters of whatever size on the rear for now until spring rolls around? I don't think he's had any problems with traction this year? It's better to look a little stupid with unmatching wheels, than looking even stupider by having all 4 pony wheels on with bald tires. Especially when you slide it into a pole, or worse another car killing someone. Use a little common sense. |
w00t you bought a Stang? |
I've got Goodyear 235-50R16 Gsd-2's on there right now. Fountain has Nexxan N2000's on special, bill a tire installed so that seems pretty workable. Not the best looking tire... but as long as they have good reviews I dont see why not. Definitally not a winter, but I'm sure they are better than whats on there. I'd like a good traction tire, with a high tolerance treadwear rating. Before buying any ole' tire, I'll do a bit of research to see whats best for my driving habits. Even if I just get summer tires, I should be fine untill march as long as I dont do any driving in the snow. Like seriously... the snow's on its way out. |
^ ive been rolling on my dunlop direzza's for 2 weeks, just use your head and your fine |
hopefully this weather can get ral nice soon. I'd like to get the O.Z.'s on, as i'm sick of driving my winters on dry pave. |
