Well i drove home from work and after the normal waiting till the rpm's drop below 1000 upon initial start i go to pull off easy day but after i put it into gear i hear a grinding noise like metal on metal i turn down my radio to make sure it wasn't me didn't hear it so i pulled off. I see a old 89 ford escort pulling out a few spaces away i let him go 45 minutes later of bumper to bumper traffic later i get to the light that takes you off base only to find out the lane is not moving at the green light low and behold 5 minutes later i see the same escort (F)ound (O)n (R)oad (D)ead. But luckily a good semaritin was there to help him out.

Let me know what you find. . I definitely wouldn't jump up to 20s though.
