Lusid talked me into it. I'm back on the list, but note the time change fellas! 11 am on the 14th!! See you then.

 

have you guys seen the kia forte koup? it actually looks pretty good, although it's only got like 150 or 175 hp, it's not a bad looking car

 

That isn't so bad actually. I expected much worse than what I saw.

This Saturday meet up at BW3's was a good time. Nothing real fancy, but it was a chance for a couple of us to get to know each other a little better, and get some wings.

We thought we saw you Bmeyer, but I guess it wasnt you. Saw an SSM TL with black rims, and it at a minimum had an exhaust. Not sure what else. Turned into the area, but kept going.

Hopefully this Saturday turns out a little better. If not - I'm a wing fan anyways, so I'll be happy either way.

 

Sorry I missed out, guys. I got a phone call at 7 a.m. Sat. morning saying that some friends of mine were in need of some help siding their house. :/

 

need a little help guys.....recently when I put the gear in reverse and let go of the brakes, I have been getting this clicking noise. I have googled it and some say it might be loose rotors, others say it might be a rock stuck in the cv-joints, others say it might be loose brake pads, and Others say just live with it. LOL being the picky person I am, I cannot live with it. You guys have any idea what it might be?

 

Got my car back from the body shop the other day after someone was nice enough to back into me. Everything looks good as new.

 

I think we will be the judge of that! Come to BW3's next Saturday and we'll have to certify it for you

 

I would but I'll be at the Gopher game this weekend. Chance I may head to Wisconsin for an anniversary party for my friends brewery instead too. Maybe next time.

 

are we gonna have another meet/ cruise before the snow falls?

 

I'm out for any cruising. Already got the car put away for the winter. If It's nice, I'll bring it out for some photo's - but with no insurance I don't want to be taking any high speed S curves in the near future. lol

 

TheWeez - Where the hell did you come from/where have you been!? Are you the CL owner the guys mentioned about who moved away (but apparently has now moved back to MN lol)?

 

no, your thinking of underst8, but i'm pretty sure he's still in RI

 

Nope. I've owned my CL-S6 for around 2 years or so now. Been in the cities for 27 years.

Here's the list again.

 

Hey matt, if you're heading to BW3's on saturday we should head out there together.....just a thought.

 

i don't know if i can go or not, but if we can you have to drive, haha. my car is beaten and ugly. and i'm going to winter beaters and stock height by this satuday hopefully

 

Christ I'm so out of the loop. Been so busy with school and student groups and clubs and stuff.

Get out there, recruit a crowd and take pictures, i wanna see

 

I would be down for a meet & cruise. I assume most would be down for a meet, but not a cruise. I will be parking White Heat REAL SOON so I am enjoying as much time as I have 'til the Jeep will be getting it all. Besides, I wanna check out TheWeez's CL-S6

 

Man hearing you guys talking about parking your cars for winter made me wish I still had my old beater, but at the same time it's hard to go to a crappy car after driving something so nice!!! Still it would have been nice to keep the TL salt free :/

 

hah, well for me, the beaters i'm talking about is my stock rims

 

I'm not so much worried about the salt, but I've got a 45 minute commute to work. As much as I'd like to say the TL is great in winter, I went from a 4 wheel drive Jimmy, to an Expedition, to the TL.

All I can say is Dodge 4x4 FTW

 

My "beater" is a '06 Jeep Liberty, not so much a beater lol - I will eventually post pics of the mods I have done so far. I agree Glow, Acuras are good in the winter BUT nothing can beat a 4X4 in those conditions!

 

You mean Dodge FTW + COOLANT SPRAY!

 

LOL.... yea yea. Guess that's what makes it a beater. :-)

It's my version of a coolant change. Just dump it all out on 94 and fill it back up after you get home. BTW - I did use duct tape to seal the hose, filled it with water and drove it home. How's that for redneck?

 

^^ That's pretty good redneck glow! lol

As for me I used to have my old 1999 oldsmobile intrigue that I drove in the winters, but got rid of it instead of investing about $4k to keep it going. It was starting to need a lot of work.

 

Oh, and I think I saw the SSM you guys were talking about seeing last weekend. It's got rims, looks like a slight drop, exhaust and tints. I was headed 94W during rush hour earlier this week and saw him. I thought it was Jorge at first, but the car didn't have the hood cover thing Jorge does.

 

Hey, they are making disposal of car fluids a bitch, that was probably the cheapest disposal of used coolant in the last 5 years.

 

Subaru STI FTW. I get AWD and all the comforts of my sports car year round!

 

Damn... he does have a point. 4x4 "nice beater" for the 2nd? lol

 

Went to Costco and got 4 new Michelin Pilot A/S for my TL and man does it make a difference it is like a completely different car now. The crappy OE MXM4's are the worst tire ever it kills the performance of the car even my old TSX had those and I replaced them with Goodyear Response Edge and they were good but the Pilots are awesome.

For those still interested we are meeting tomorrow at Buffalo Wild Wings in Coon Rapids here is the address for your navi system
3395 River Rapids Dr NW, Coon Rapids, MN‎.
If you use mapquest/google maps the location is slightly off so just know when you see JCPenneys BW3's is on the west side of Penney's parking lot.

 

^^ Should have gone with the Nokians that I got on my TL! They don't hold up all that long (about 40,000 miles), but makes the TL feel like an AWD car in the winter. I'm already on my second set of them and absolutely love them!! They're expensive as hell though!


See you guys tomorrow.....don't forget 11 am!!!

 

If you can't make it - update your post

So we dont stand outside for 12mins waiting lol

 

It is call a bra. I do not use it all the time. Were did you see this car. Until recently I was driving my car, but I got a winter / kid car. It was free that's why I am looking for speaker deals CARMODIFIER.

 

I have go meet some kid who is selling some cheaaaaaaaap rims that I might get for my winter car, I might be in the area I will call and see if you guys are still I might stop.

 

We were at BWW last week for close to 2hours.

Here's an update on my status, there is a guy fixing my leather couch so I might be late. I'll reupdate my post if anything changes.

 

Sorry guys! Furniture guy is taking forever. Will have to skip this one out.

 

I guess I'm a little late. Completely spaced lunch today. Sorry guys - hopefully someone showed up...

 

Yeah that's what we did. I guess that is what I get for not having a Blackberry/Iphone to check the message boards then we would have known. 05TL and I watched the Gopher game and had lunch and I waited around till 12:30 to see if anyone else showed up before leaving myself.
