Cazio, in the lower right hand corner of each post, the middle icon is a Multi-Quote button. This allows you to respond to multiple people in a single reply.

Be sure to give it a try!

Cazio, when you see a posting that you want to respond to, just click on that icon within the post. You can do that multiple times! On the last posting that you want to respond to, just click the regular "Quote" button and all of the postings you want to respond to will appear in a text box.

Then, you just write the response underneath the posting. It will look like some of the posts I merged of yours above.


Feel free to send me a Personal Message (a PM) if you have any other questions I can help you with!

don't know why I've waiting so long to tint but I might as well wait alittle longer till spring or so. I've debated the emblem situation and decided that I like that little bit of chrome but still may do it in the future
