Following the car washing activities will be Opie washing followed by TV shopping with Taylor (Mr. Techfracture). Shopping for big ticket items with either of my sons usually means they shop and I buy (or at least help).

So there you go.

Have a great day and don't forget to use up your daily allotment of reps.
Sounds like a good day! Have fun shopping for electronics!

47", eh? We put a backlit 47" LED in our bedroom and my wife wishes we had gone with the 52"! I love her!!

In my experience, I find that it's best to purchase the biggest you can reasonably afford. In no time you may find yourself wanting more!

We just bought a Samsung in the same specs as above. No complaints so far.

Morning!

Checked the oil @750 miles and was about 1/3 quart low, not bad. Topped it off and put another 100 miles on it. I should really wash it today, hopefully that happens... Chance of rain this evening, and I'd like to take it for a drive again, so maybe I should skip it.

So kenchan you have TWO Fit Sports in your driveway now? That's one for each foot, man!

I agree to go big -- when it is for me. For Taylor... I't all about how many dollars he can kick in to the cause.

Hello Mr. Alcheng... Well no news yet. Still listening to clips and such.

I was thinking NISMO because I would have the Nissan dealer install it, but then, I do have a good shop that I think will do it for not too much, so I guess I could do any exhaust!

Since I had not considered other possibilities I would have to say I am just at the very beginning of my search. I bookmarked that site you gave me, though and I've been looking at all of those.

I'm sitting in fog still, which will clear, so I won't build a fire.

Hello Mr. Davey,
I have a Nismo exhaust and in my opinion it sounds a little tame. Fast Intentions seems to be the ticket these days. My buddy has an exhaust by M7 Japan that sounds fantastic! Lastly, one of the guys on here has a full Amuse exhaust for sale (brand new never used) that's just beautiful...I don't know what those sound like. Good luck on your project!

thanks mr.gale! the drive was and cleaned her up a little when i got home. i think im going to redo the side clear bra soon. it's pretty knicked up near the rear quarter arch.

mr.onzedge- wow 47" sounds great! sorry to hear about the heat. i had to deal with humid 100F+ for several weeks in July. it was HOT.
so frikken hot i didnt get to do much outdoors with the kids.

So kenchan you have TWO Fit Sports in your driveway now? That's one for each foot, man!
mr.davey- i had to add oil on a regular basis until about 8k miles. from there it's slowed down considerably. this was the same way with my G when i got her 8yrs ago.

yah, i had 2 Fits back 2008-2011. i sold my 08' as i couldn't stand the pedal position and it's been in a fender bender. carmax gave me a great price so just let it go. i did one full year with the G as full time dd. worked out okay, im still not a fan of putting kids in the back seat in bad weather...and not being able to carry anything, ive been looking for a hatch the last 4-5months.

the current Fit's pedal position is 10x better; not as good as G and Z but for a family car it should do just fine. now i can finally carry my wheels and music gear around too, whenever.
