At least it's easier to unload the groceries in a dump truck, just dump 'em out! You could make a swimming pool out of it too. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Re: If you want a birds-eye view of your car...

Anyway I was really used to the long 10 second yellows in long island because I had just come from there. This .5 second yellow really threw me off and I got caught :( The yellow lights in the Bronx literally change in one second and than the red in the other direction changes green just as fast, I...

If you stay on the gas on the clutch in while upshifting, you're going to have jerky shifts, the revs will jump up and then back down once to shift and clutch out to a higher gear. When upshifting the revs should go down, use the gas on the clutch out to adjust if they drop to fast. On the clutch in...

Just downshift to 2nd if you need to go further and third doesn't have enough power.

That makes me sick, I'd rather have her live through the accident and have to live the rest of her life in terrible guilt for killing her own children, then for her to die in the accident. As a soon to be railroad employee, let me say to everyone: THE TRAIN ALWAYS WINS!!!! Look, Listen, Live... http...

In HS I practically taught the Java class. The professor would ask a question and I was the only one who knew the answer, so he let me explain to the rest of the class. For me Java was very easy, C++ was more hands on, which I actually preferred. Of course I was a Comp Sci major in college. I spent ...

Really? I can slapshift through all five gears in my Mz3 without even a grind. I don't do it regularly or anything, but it's entirely possible. Really? Interesting. I'll have to try it again, but when I did the gearshift felt like a toddler had a firm grip on a toy. :lol: My MZ3 won't let me shift ...

My friend mike recently turned 16, and for his birthday his dad bought him 6 Brand-new Escalades (One for each of their houses). If he crashes / trashes one of them he still has 5 more... WHAT?! That is pretty ridiculous.. I mean, even Bill Gates doesn't buy 6 Escalades :) hmmmm, one kid, six Escal...
