My first bimmer! :yahoo:
Is Russ still on the air? I listened to him way back when he was on mornings and ran nekkid down the tollway.
Kind of screams uppity Liberal to me........ :fuelfire:
Yeah I caught some of his show online after I moved away. He was already on the talk station by then. His show was one of the things I missed about moving away!
I read online about his arrest. OMG.
Sorry for the threadjack!
Throw an Obama sticker on it..... would speak VOLUMES
FB isn't too far away from here & I DO have a doctor's appointment in Plano coming up... :stirpot:
Might as well be a Subaru!
Kind of screams uppity Liberal to me........ :fuelfire:
LOL, WTF? How does this scream liberalism???They're just jealous. :popcorn:
Stick or auto? :whistling:
Nice car. Not a color I would have chosen, but let us know how it handles.
They're just jealous. :popcorn::cheersmate:
It's auto. I've driven a stick for the past 6 years. Sucks in the city!
Yup!
I drive a Chevrolet 3/4 4X4 pick-up truck. I get 10 MPG. It's in 4 wheel in the winter or has the A/C on in the summer. I supposed I could get better gas millage if I suffered for the rest of mankind, and went green, turning the air and 4 wheel off. NOT!!!
I can survive knowing that liberals think I'm a selfish, greedy repub.
Eh. I learned to spend a lot of time coasting along in neutral with the occasional bump on the clutch to keep moving. My brother was bitching about his truck's heavy clutch in traffic yesterday... glad mine is pretty light.
Mine was a 2005 Ford Focus. Very light clutch. But still, getting stuck on the tollway in afternoon rush traffic with a stick SUUUUUUUUCKS.

Not as bad as getting stuck in same traffic while on a bike.
You said stick and sucks in the same post (http://209.85.62.26/6026/144/emo/giggle1.gif)
Dirty girl! :naughty:
:bawl: :bawl: :bawl:
I desperately need an automatic something as I can no longer drive stick with my left leg all messed up. What to do, I have a 2000 KIA with 35,000 miles on it and can get around $500.00 in trade in for it.
BTW, I have Low Jack on this car, when I sell or trade it in, can I remove this divice and transfer it to another car or truck??
Then what is with the doors on these things. I had 64 Stingray convertable with the same problems. When it gets cold the doors will not lock, had to put seat belt through the hole in the arm rest to keep the doors closed. Now years later my KIA has the same problems with no way to tie the door closed until it heats up. A summer car that one.
I never lock the doors on my car or Jeep, if anyone wants to get in, no broken windows or slashed canvas on the jeep. Radios are cheap to replace they can take the damn things, I only get Am radio on them.

No such thing, my man! Center stripes and shoulders! :naughty:
Not all states allow lane splitting or driving on the shoulder. I had a motorcycle for my commute when I was stationed in San Diego. Splitting lanes across the Coronado Bay Bridge was awesome, but one STILL had to be careful of the cagers. They liked to open their doors or crowd the centerline when they saw a motorcycle coming up in their mirrors.
Pretty, pretty car, TC!!
Congrats!
(capitalist PIG? :lmao: )
Congrats, you caught the double entendre!
Needs a bath...Whoa, this the new Vee-hicle Chris? Not bad. Probably doen't have that new car smell of TC 's but then it doesn't usually outlast the payments anyway. :-)

my dream is a Ford Excursion :naughty:
It really pisses me off that they quit making those. We have a 33' bumper pull travel trailer and really wanted an Excursion since we're a family of 5. We had to settle for an F-250 instead. I'd rather have that 3rd row seat than a pickup bed.

It's legal in Texas but like you mentioned dangerous as hell. Folks in cages don't know it's legal and they'll do stupid stuff to keep you from passing them. Most don't realize that some of the air cooled bikes need to keep moving in Texas heat.
Hell some cops don't know the laws on bikes and will pull you over for legal stuff. A friend of mine was riding and was issued a ticket for not having the helmet sticker on his license plate while riding without a helmet. He had to take the time to call the court and explain that you don't have to have the sticker to ride without a helmet. It was a pain in the butt.
KC

Helmet sticker???
And no, lane splitting is not legal here in Texas.
Helmet Exemption Sticker.
The Department of Public Safety issues Helmet Exemption stickers to persons who:
apply to the department on the form provided; and own the motorcycle listed on the application; provide adequate proof of successful completion of the Basic or Advanced Motorcycle Operator Training Course, or health insurance coverage, and, pay a $5.00 non-refundable fee for each sticker applied for.
Persons operating, or riding upon, a motorcycle with a helmet exemption sticker displayed on the license plate or license plate mounting bracket are presumed to meet the training or insurance requirements for riding without a helmet.
NOTE: Helmet Exemption stickers are serialized and may not be transferred from one motorcycle to another. The sticker expires on the third anniversary of their date of issuance.
2. Is the helmet exemption sticker required before a motorcyclist can ride without a helmet?
No. The sticker indicates that the motorcyclist meets the requirement for riding without a helmet, and law enforcement officers will presume that they do. Without the sticker motorcyclists may be requested to show police officers their proof of course completion or insurance coverage.
The law prohibits a peace officer from stopping or detaining a person who is the operator of or a passenger on a motorcycle for the sole purpose of determining whether the person has successfully completed a motorcycle operator training and safety course or is covered by a motorcycle health insurance plan and repeals provisions relating to a DPS-issued sticker required to be displayed on a motorcycle by a motorcycle owner.

If I needed seating for seven (or five with storage), I would be looking at a Ford Flex. I would love to have one even if it is for a little while.
The wife wants a Flex later down the road. They're way overpriced.
Texacon, that's the first I'd even heard of a helmet sticker! That must have been back when Bush first signed the bill.
heh, I've been doing this job in the Dallas area for 17 years and never knew that. Shows how much we actually enforced that!
There's some obscure little B.S. loophole in the law that allows us to stop people to ensure that they are properly licensed to operate the particular class of vehicle they are operating. An example would be to stop a biker to ensure that he's under a class M endorsement.
I've seen other officers use it, but I refuse to because if I end up getting a good bust, that chicken crap P.C. is going to lose the case for me. I'd rather wait and stop them for something legit. Any decent cop can get a GOOD traffic violation on someone within 100 yards.
