Well, I dropped my car off at the body shop earlier (not that anyone cares because y'all are too worried about workout playlist and whining about words that Yumcha uses) :chuckle:
Anyhow, I rented a new VW Passat. As soon as I got in it and started driving it, I hated it. Now, a VW CC on the other hand may be a different story. But, an 08 TL is better than a 15 Passat all day long. Hope you guys have a great weekend!

Don't worry, at least you're not Taco!


Just teasing. You're still invited to my parties. I don't believe I need to give you my address? :bitelip:

Not a VW fan. It's German, but cheap German, so that's like American...

Grabbed the e-book of Leviathan Wakes to read on the work computer ... completely hooked. Best sci fi with elements of noir I've read since Altered Carbon.

Duck I am drunk off free alcohol at these dermatology parties in SF.

Herr doktor is in town and hooked it up with free entry.

I'm his office manager this weekend :rofl:

Jamie's 08 TL 03-21-2015 10:58 AM

Looks like my bad luck continues! Got a ticket this morning for 88mph in a 75mph. :whyme:
There goes $197 :damn:
Oh well, it was bound to happen sooner or later. I haven't gotten a ticket in 6 years, and this will make 3 in my life. So overall, I guess I'm not doing too bad. :shrug:

TacoBello 03-21-2015 12:00 PM

88mph eh? You were trying to go back to the future again, weren't you?

I was doing 95 when I saw him. I backed off to 88 just before he clocked me. I blame that POS VW Passat. I'm not use to the feel of it and honestly didn't realize I was going that fast.
I've seen some nice Passats, but never driven one. This one is the Wolfsburg Edition. It's a decent car I guess, but just not "me". It's not fun to drive like the TL. If I bought a VW, it would be the CC.

Tickets suck. Sorry to hear.

Mugen.Justice 03-21-2015 04:56 PM

My TL-S finally got to go play outside for the first time in 2015. What did I get her?

Nope. That would be on the Epic mix.

rockstar143 03-22-2015 01:12 AM

I think you guys meant Lambada.

TacoBello 03-22-2015 01:21 AM

J, you're up late!

rockstar143 03-22-2015 01:31 AM

I am!
I should go to bed. There's a meet tomorrow morning. I'm just here, having a drink...tinkering. Just installed a new cabin filter on the S...and put some stormsure on a patch of soft top under the repaired tear in it...cleaned the soft top today, and will do the treatment to it tomorrow or the next day. Once I re-stitch the tear for strength.

also, against my normal judgment...I plastidipped the emblems today. Came out really nice.

Goodnight.

Jamie's 08 TL 03-22-2015 11:22 AM

Look out Houston! Here I am! :biggrin:

Nope, not on the Guardians of the Galaxy soundtrack (which is what this is), haha. All I need is a Baby Groot on my dash.

I was aware, great movie by the way. But you're supposed to make your own awesome mix!

For sure. Changed things on the TL again? Man, you never stop. :tomato:

Jamie's 08 TL 03-23-2015 09:05 AM

Didn't have time. I was in and out quick. Had to go to Pasadena, TX. Apparently, I was in a hurry to get back home because I got another damn ticket for 68 in a 60. :rant:

It was perfect! What did you change, J?

N1h1l1ty 03-23-2015 09:09 AM

Hwat... another ticket? Jeeze those are some overactive cops. Good thing I drive one route to work every day, and it happens to NEVER have 5-0 on it :boink:

thoiboi 03-23-2015 09:10 AM

Morning guys. :wave:


good to see it was quiet this weekend on ramblings, meant you guys were off your computers and enjoying life/your cars/ your women :pervert:


Sorry to see about the ticket Jamie! My last speeding ticket, officer 'clocked' me at 88 mph too.. I smell BS... was he using a radar/laser/lidar? My officer said "he paced me" but when I saw him, he was speeding UP to me and then lit me up. :rolleyes:

Jamie's 08 TL 03-23-2015 09:10 AM

It is what it is. :shrug: I haven't had a ticket in 6 years, and then I get 2 in 2 days. :whyme:

You were in TX? Just fight it, blame affluenza :thumbsup:

You're white right? :wish:

rockstar143 03-23-2015 09:18 AM

Jamie...

Absolute must have. The not tickets will pay for it.

Thanks...well, my idea to seal the heads with the butyl along the seam (as I do with my tails) failed miserable. Somewhere with the heat and pressure, they separated up top so I had leaks. With doing all the work to get bumper off, pay off had to be a different look. I missed the pristine cleared lights anyway. SO...back to smoked oem sidemarkers and decided to make myself my last set of tails. Simple...type S with black bezel.

I'm really happy with how it came out. The old knockoff mu lug nuts actually compliment well, and swapped from 7 to 5MM spacer on Friday on the rear.

Did some light maintenance on the S...changed out the TCT and installed some modifry goodies too.


Don't wanna clutter Ramblings with pics...there are a few new on my thread. :thumbsup:

I get between 2 to 5 popo on my 3km stretch to work everyday. I just drive the limit while on small roads, highways I let myself loose a bit. Never got a ticket in my life, put aside parking tickets. Montreal you know.


QUICKLY, CAN YOU PARK THERE RIGHT NOW?

The one on the way to work Saturday morning I deserved. I was definitely doing 88 in a 75. But, yesterday I was in my 18 wheeler work truck. And, it was a CMV enforcement cop that said I was doing 68 in a 60. Cars were flying past me. But, he was a CMV cop. :damn:

:rofl: yeah, thats TOTALLY sensible

Neighborhood I work in happens to be fairly affluent, and has a police station almost beside my work (less than 100 m away). Funnily enough ... never cops on the main road leading to work. I guess I should just shut up and not complain? :shrug:
