I do feel that I do qualify cause mine is a Z(L1) just like it is an import cause it is made in Canada eh?

Thats probably why he did you a favor and didnt give you the zone penalty.

19 over is boarderline level for a potential impounding of your ride...I hope this didnt actually surprise you...

And are you honestly surprised that it doesnt matter that construction wasnt actually happening? :|

Hey ya see we have two Canadians here at one time. Thats almost a hockey game eh? Put your sticks down. In NY there are hundreds of construction zones with no workers, just like all the truck weigh stations that are never open.

They have the same system in illinois. They will close down 25 mile stretch of the highway and you wont see a single construction vehicle.

Hey guys!

Noticed something a little disconcerting today:

It's full on 75° here in Fl but my thermometer shows 66°.
Anyone else seen that?

So Gale your saying that they are still spray painting and haven't gone to dipping the cars yet? It confuses me as to how one spray nozzle can be used for different colors without transferring some of the previous color.

I have seen that -- my outside temp got stuck on 71 degrees for a day and literally as I was taking it to the dealer, it fixed itself and has been fine ever since.

Yeah, it's very cool, the line never stops and you'll have all different colours going down the line. the robots have a "purge" program between cars. They can even paint an entirely different vehicle after painting a camaro, never stopping.... Flexible manufacturing... The cars are dipped (alpo/phosphate) after the bodyshop is done with them, before sealer and primer.
