waiting on the insurance people to go back and look at it again to get more money so still waiting to get repaired... Taking quite awhile but hopefully everything works out.

Is there a wait list for the Type 2's or did they just recently get restocked with them?

Ahh ok,hopefully it comes out looking good tho.

Yeah Marcus at heeltoe said he didnt have em in stock right now (thats why its also not on his site).

He told me some ppl had problems with theirs so F&F was revising them

and that he should have em by the end of this week,

but i just couldnt wait anymore cuz riding 4x4 with hella stretched poking wheels sucks.

So i just googled & found a link on eBay,offered him $830 shipped.

The ppl who had problems with theirs were the ppl who had the V2 branded as "H-T Spec"

I'm getting basically "regular" function & form which IMO the whole branding dont mean shit (all the same except v2 is softer)

So if it eventually blows within a year,i can claim warranty thru F&F just as anybody with "H-T Spec" would too.

Rofl.hell no..i feel ashamed everyday im driving at that height with my wheels lol.

Just picture a mexipoke car rolling around with stretch tires on the front haha.

and then alignments off too.

Thinking about getting a lifetime alignment at this in ground brake check place on westheimer

They charge $2 for every other time you come to get an alignment.

Real-Time Traffic coverage in Houston is defficient

In Houston, the Real-Time Traffic coverage is defficient.

It should cover at least Westpark Tollway and 249-Tomball Pkwy.

Without these, any upgrade to the Maps is not worth it.

Most other GPS companies already cover them and also Grand Pkwy and HW-6 as well.

Does anybody know why and when this can be expected?

the thing that pisses me off the most about our navi is when you try to search for something, and it doesn't come up. It shows the next closest place like fucking three states over.

So i use my phone to google the address and type it in that way.

Also when you try to type in an address but it's on a highway and won't find it, so you end up having to go through every single possible highway name like i10, i-10, i-10 west, west i-10, katy freeway, etc.
