a few bad pics (camera phone)... at the salvage yard at about 3am... I am still soooooo tired!

... the guy who hit my family said he had been doing some suspension work on his F150 earlier and he just suddenly lost control while going 60 mph.... I am interested to see if this story reaches the police report o the insurance adjuster... he ended up in the ER via ambulance too...

Car drives so well. Even the sport shift function works much better. Hopefully it holds up for another 80K.

I thought about canceling my rental car and driving the TL to Austin today.

^we usually have one every month.

I'm thinking about having a crawfish boil this saturday.
Who all would be able to make it?
i would require for everyone to throw in some money, how much is depending on who all comes and how much crawfish and beer I buy.

I have had the Rotora kit on the front forever but never had a flat. Ended up having to have the car towed to my house, it was a pain.

I also called acura to purchase one for the future but they are discontinued

TLDude876 if I get a new one you can have mine. For now though I have to ride around with the old one and spare jack stand so that I can take the tire off the rear, move it to the front and then put the spare on the back.

I got luck because one if I would have not pulled over when I did the tire was about to desinegrate. The entire side wall was ripped over 3/4 of the tire.

Hopefully get the car up to discount for my new tires this weekend.

Thanks man. I actually have a spare but the tire is no good and I have been to few tire shops and none have that size tire

Edit: I think there are at least 2 bbk spares in black market for sale. I think Rodney and Sharksbreath
