I would drain/extract a little to be on the safe side pint. I know it's a pain, but better for the pressure on your oil pump and seals in the long run.

Just my $.02 worth though.

Thanks for the opinion. I'll be addressing it tomorrow.

Yeah, I know it's a pain in the azz..but "better to be safe than....." God that's such an old cliche. How 'bout "A pound of prevention Is worth an ounce...." Hmm, that's no better. Perhaps we can say "Fore(sight), while usually removed at birth, can prove useful at times, leading to higher levels of sensitivity."

Hey..that works?!

Seriously though, who steals card info to use on the damn iTunes store?!

I recommend that you NOT use debit cards. Ask your bank for a plain old vanilla ATM card. Then, get a credit card with a balance that you can handle, and only what you can handle. A credit card serves as a buffer between thieves and your bank account. You don't have to worry about missing cash causing bounced checks, and then having to clean up the whole mess with letters to merchants, or worse. "Honest, Your Honor. I didn't intend to bounce those checks."

My optimal setup would be to have a car pc setup with a touchscreen in the cubby hole and display digital guages on there.

thanks, zman- actually you defined wat i wanted, thanks!

i ordered up the nuvi 1490lmt (life time map update + traffic which i wont use) and the ecoRoute BT OBD2 transmitter so that i can use my nuvi as real time guage(s), and also run maps when needed.

i will use my current HU until next yr to see wat pioneer brings to the table for droid apps.

Garmin ecoRoute HD Demo Video - YouTube

on my G i will use my droid + googlemaps for nav and calling, etc.

(mr.alcheng- thanks again on the tips as well.

I think you need to get your first one out of the way so we can all enjoy it! What are you considering for the first?

Not sure yet. Perhaps, something that improves the looks. I suppose the swifts + Stillen sway + spacers.

I've been using my Amex as my debit. I just so happened to use my debit card out of town once and it screwed me. **** happens.

Good night my fave guys!

Mr.kenchan, that's a nice purchase!!

BTW, while I was watching the video you post, afterward I click on the kenwood one, and I think you might consider the Kenwood HU since they are using GARMIN GPS system too, yes, I am more favorite on Kenwood over Pioneer, LOL, maybe because they are the only brand capable of displaying Chinese characters.

Too bad it doesn't demo the real-time reading from those gauges but I think it shouldn't be that bad.
