Its black but I am going to rap my new console with it. If you are planning to put it on a box or something where you have to use alot of glue, get the upholstery suede. Has a rigid back so the glue wont seep through -

Bad day to be a modder
John replied to slugdub's topic in Video Games (All consoles) Ratings, previews, demos......the latest
I will agree with you on that no doubt. $60 bucks for a game is getting quite rediculous. But its all a matter of greed...you raise the price of a game $10 and say 200k people buy it: Thats an easy 2mill in their pockets. Sad truth is, games are only going to continue to rise in price. Very rarely do you see a price drop on such a well selling item. Because the designers know that people will pay it. -

what blows my mind is the people who are getting all pissed off about getting banned. Its not like you had no idea that you were doing something wrong. You know 100% what you were doing and you took the chances, now you have to face the consequences. Was it so hard to wait those two weeks till the release date? Its a fun game but damn...its just that, a game. -

Here is something to rattle your brain!

Let this be a lesson to all you boys and girls. Open the damn garage door when you have your truck running... haha! We all got our retarded moments -

DING DING DING! Even tho I did remove all connections from the front battery, because I had a positive line from the back batteries still on the buss bar up front...it still was getting power. I was just running off the rear batteries and no longer had the front battery in the mix. Damn exhaust fumes got to me. Edit: But damnit if I didn't think my car was some sort of possessed when I glanced up at that little light under the hood. -

Not to mention...everytime in the past that I have disconnected that battery, everything goes night night like it should. -

John replied to John's topic in Electrical-battery- Alternators- Wiring
I do have two batteries in the back but they are ran directly from the front battery. I dont even have a run coming from the alternator to them. I have no other equipment related to the source in my vehicle. No battery backups for alarms or capacitors or anything. I understand that my pcm and my ecu do hold a charge. But not for upwards of 10 minutes with all lights on and radio playing... -
Long story short. I was disconnecting the battery I have up front(standard lead acid battery from oreilys) After removing the negative and positve connections. I begin to pull the battery out...I tell myself how nice it is to have such a bright engine light for working in the dark. LIGHTBULB ON! How in the hell do I still have power to my truck if my battery is completely disconnected? To double check myself, I run to the interior and flip on the interior lights as well as my headlights. Now these, ofcourse, shouldn't work with the battery completely disconnected from the car. So...unless I have a hidden battery I just don't know about or I am high as a damn kite...I shouldn't have power to my truck. Got any ideas?

cash for clunkers?
John replied to MTX J30's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
Used cars are selling like hot cakes like colin said. Before the CFC program, we had the same used inventory for what seemed like 3 months. Hardly moving anything. Now its a new lot everytime I go out there. -

More than likely not. It was good for the auto industry while it lasted...but I know at our dealership, we experienced a very big slow down once it was over. Not to mention how long it took to get the cars approved. We just now killed all of our clunkers. -
Responsibility
John replied to Melissa's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
Got a co worker like this. He missed a scratch on a GTO we had in the shop. Not a big deal really...I caught it before the guy came to pick it up. It would have been an easy 10 minute fix, but no. He had to bitch and whine to me about how it wasnt his fault for missing it. Even tried to blame it on me when I had no part in working on the car. Boss set him straight and ended up telling him to go home. I fixed the sratch and cleaned the car off as the guy was pulling up. As far as the whole teenager attitude...It will blow over trust me. I was the same way as well as my brother. It was hell on my parents and almost caused them to get a divorce. Stick in there! -
My New Ride
John replied to LT.Smoke's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
Nice trade man! Those impalas drive so nice. As far as performance parts for one...leave it stock. Its not meant to be a race car. I would tint the windows, put some hids in it and then work on the interior and audio and call it good!
