Well it is what it is. Part of what is posted on here is so that I can look back, the other part is so that I don't forget what others suggest / say to me in case I need to look back at it.
For now, I just want a working reliable car, lol. I don't really care about power levels at the moment since right now it is a big fat zero! :O
And Eugene is graciously providing that for me even when he doesn't have to help me out and could have refused to. Although we don't always see eye to eye on everything, I can understand where he is coming from. I trust him fully with my vehicle and that he is taking care of everything, so I definitely take his suggestions into strong consideration since he is the one working on my car.
I do take your guys' constructive feedback as well very strongly because I respect a ton of you on here too!
But for now, I will focus on having a reliable car that I can drive to work every day and such as a DD, then pay everything off, then worry about upgrades if I still want it after all is paid off!
