For this car it was 3yrs... until I got this new job and could afford it.
I had a '08 350z and I blew that ride with an accident. 100% my fault and stupidity. Made me realize how much I used to take for granted. These days it's about what is sensible and would benefit me more in the long run.
Congrats on making it this far! That in itself is a very good starting point!

Will they let you return a small child?


Whew, thankfully I haven't made that mistake yet, but I'm just trying to plan ahead.

Man, I was soooo stoopid! at our engagement party her Grandmother took me aside and said, "you deserve more, she is a bitch and not worth your time." At the time I thought she was just bitter...yolk on my face

P.s. Her grandma spent $8 on her for Christmas, and she gave me like $1600 in tools lol

Yep, which is why I'm going to be buying a new TV and surround sound.

Waiting until Black Friday of course.

Be sure to sign up for Tigerdirect email offers. They have had good deals on 60" TVs and surround sound. Are you looking at a theater in a box type setup for surround or something more, custom?

P.S. I have a 60" LCd Tv and its HUGE, be sure to measure before buying! I didnt realize how big 60" diag. really was lol
I have a 1080p projector and usually have my PC setup to it...even having 4 virtual desktops open and a network montioring screen open, I can still have 3 more windows open without straining my eyes

LOL, When I bought the 60" I thought man this is going to fit perfect on the wall I want and enough room for tower speakers on the side...I was way wrong lol
It wouldnt fit the speaker towers on the sides without out over lapping the doorway. Did NOT work according to original plans lol.
