i hate austin with a passion

get this guys,

i wait for the ups guy all day, starting at 1 for my headers...i check the site and it says on truck for delivery, and i check again around 5pm because the guy usually stops by around 3 or 4. it says that he tried to deliver but nobody was home. that's total bs. anyways, i call the ups place up and they do a callback, they say if i come between 7:15 and 9 i can pick up the package. so i go around 7:20 to the ups center here and i wait...i sit there for a good hour and a half, just in case the driver was late coming back. and then the guy that works at the station comes to tell me that the package wasn't in. somehow it got mixed up and either got on the wrong truck or it was locked in a container and i wasn't able to pick it up until tomorrow. that pissed me off, but it was understandable, i mean shit happens. so he gives me the number to call in the morning just in case it gets on a truck for a 2nd attempt at delivery and i get in my car. i turn the key and nothing...my battery died. so i'm sitting there in the ups parking lot with a dead cl. my friend that went with me started asking around and found a guy with some jumper cables that was willing to help me out. i don't know what to say. i hate austin, i hate ups.

oh, and another thing. i go to the local super walmart to pick up a battery because i didn't want anything else happening...and i didn't know the battery part no. for our cars, and i go to the machine that tells you what kind of battery we require...only to find that the database doesn't have the cl in it. wtf.

so plz, can anybody tell me which battery we need? size? voltage? i'm gonna go to autozone tomorrow and pick one up. any suggestions on type of battery?

thanks a lot. sry, just venting.

Sounds like a bad day. Once those headers get installed i'm sure you'll forget all about today.

acura CL/TL battery is called a group 24. Make a mental note of which way the terminals are going (positive and negative) because you might accidentally pick up a group 24 R which has REVERSED terminals. That would probably piss you off even more so don't say I didn't warn you to look at the terminals.

ktown378: I totally agree with you on that.

Austin is nothing but a BIG PANSY and the only thing he Rules at is SUCKING THE COCK!. I don't even think he's on this site anymore and he's certainly not on the TL site either.



& Austin = :ghey:
:whocares: about him anyway.
