Yeah the tail winds flying east will make the trip super quick.... the pilot said pretty much all westbound flights have terrible head winds and it takes an hour to two hours longer flying west. The little t.v. in the seat back in front of you will show all that stuff , speed, head wind, temp., ground speed, travel time, and your location... kinda cool little program actually.

HMMMM..... Like titties????? :rolleyes: And hey man , I got on a plane for the very first time a few weeks ago. More nervous than you could imagine. Flew from savannah ,ga. to Santa Anna , California. I always had a issue with the whole "not being in control, feeling helpless to prevent my doom" kinda mentality.... It won't be that bad. My biggest gripe was the seats in coach just are not roomy enough even for a little guy like me . I sucked it up because there is simply no faster way to travel across country in basically half a day.

I saw a video on some website a while back where a guy went to europe for about three weeks. His friends went into his room and covered every square inch of his walls, the top of ALL of his bed sheets, his t.v. , computer, desk, lined every drawer, his floor , his ceiling, ceiling fan and blades, they even covered every garmet on a hanger in his closet... Trust me, they got it all. Took about two weeks working every night for like 6 hrs. or so. Poor guy came home from the airport and was so tired from flying that he just crashed on his bed and didn't even try to laugh or get mad.... Very big fucking mess. Something like 30,000 post it notes. Yes , I am sure they said 30,000 POST IT Notes.

The only problem with surfing on the iphone or a itouch is that its fine for stuff like checking email, you tubing, b.s. like that. I have tried to view the forum on there and type out a post or two, but a page like this with all the places to "click" that takes you to sections or threads makes it really hard to navigate a site like this one. plus youare constantly expanding and shrinking pages and your fingers end up hitting links you were not trying to go to . I am not saying it can't be done... Apple has a great concept and a great product out with this technology... But surfing like you do at home on a pc or laptop takes some real patience...

Hello sundown. I too am glad to have you as part of this forum. There are alot of folks here who have your products. This section is just another reason for me to stare and read here on the SMD forum for endless hours as I travel and sit hotels for work...

You got pics of a power wheels with a system in it? I bet that is sweet....

Mercedes Benz is one of the few manufacturers that still tock parts for virtually every car they ever built. Your local dealer may have to order what you need, but it is attainable to repair this with all MB parts. I worked for a BMW/Mercedes dealer for a few years , several years ago. We were always doing repairs on these old models, and ordering parts for other mechanics and DIY - ers like you. That car will literally run forever if you know how to repair it , and use the right parts when you do. I am sure you understand though, that car is not cheap to fix if something breaks down on it though...

Damn man, Did you have a port calculator and box design program implanted into your brain at some point.... You are a true asset to this forum.

my 9887 install, review I say get the 9887. the ipod features are amazing... Imprint. Nuff said. also, there is two links down in my thread that are very lengthy in the discussion and review of the 9887 and the imprint kit. I should prolly get a mod to move my thread to the head unit section too. I forgot it was here...

Damn with that set up, my only deciding factor would be the warranty issue. I would verify that from RF and if so, man go for it....

I am sure that they are great amps. I would love a 4001 for myself. But if you buy these amps, won't that make this statement very untrue? Any thing man made can possibly fail. Even a RF amp. How did this guys amps get inoperable? will RF give a warranty and a guarantee after the repairs or overhauls are done? If yes then by all means go for it. How is your electrical? did you factor in the costs of upgrading other parts of the system to get the full benefit of these amps?

<<< Eagerly awaiting to see how you are gonna wire these doors up to the distribution blocks. Can't wait. Can't you call in sick for a few days? (j/k) Cause you know , we are all a bunch of pic whores. And you gotta do work to post pics.

just goes to show what endless amounts of time and patience , with a little bit of brain power can accomplish.

I have a friend who writes military interrogation policy , he works in the pentagon, along with 25,000 other cubicle slaves, but any way, we have had several discusions on how a polygraph can be the most inaccurate, invaluable interrogation tool on the planet. However, if tested by someone who is very familiar with human biology, mainly the nervous and circulatory systems, and psychology , there is a very strong chance that it will be accurate, and the interrogator , properly trained, should be able to tell from the various monitors used on you and your body language or "tells" as the poker hands call it ; if you are either nervous, lying, telling the truth, or just really not know for sure the answer to the question. I am sure this dumb ass was not one of these highly trained medical educated interrogators...

No more than one screw about every four inches if you must. and pre drill your holes , or you are just asking for problems. And, yes these guys are right. Tite bond is stronger than any nail - once it dries and cures. Did you give everything time to set up and dry?

looks good. Nice job on the kerf too.

x2 How much more custom do you need really?

Look at it this way, you know who she REALLY is now. Better now than if you did marry her, have a kid with her then have all this shit happen. That bros before hoes bullshit, well fuck that , it's up to you know if you wanna call this guy your brother anymore. Find your friends, the people who you can really count on, and stick with them. sometimes it seems like the one or two true friends that we have in the world are the people we can really count on when we need them the most. Put stock in that, and walk away knowing that the two of them are gonna have their hands full, cause this is gonna be a show to watch. So make some popcorn and grab a chair!!!

I got this In a email from a friend yesterday. This is beyond funny..... Banned from Wal-Mart This is why women should not take men shopping against their will. After I retired, my wife insisted that I accompany her on her trips to Wal-mart. Unfortunately, like most men, I found shopping boring and preferred to get in and get out. Equally unfortunately, my wife is like most women - - she loved to browse. Yesterday my dear wife received the following letter from the local Wal-Mart. Dear Mrs. Samsel, Over the past six months, your husband has been causing quite a commotion in our store. We cannot tolerate this behavior and have been forced to ban both of you from the store. Our complaints against Mr.Samsel are listed below and are documented by our video surveillance cameras. 1. June 15: Took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in people's carts when they weren't looking. 2 . July 2 : Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5-minute intervals. 3. July 7: Made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the women's restroom. 4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official voice, 'Code 3 in Housewares. Get on it right away.' 5. August 4: Went to the Service Desk and tried to put a bag of M&M's on layaway. 6. August 14: Moved a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area. 7. August 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told other shoppers he'd invite them in if they would bring pillows and blankets from the bedding department. 8. August 23: When a clerk asked if they could help him he began crying and screamed, 'Why can't you people just leave me alone?' 9. September 4: Looked right into the security camera and used it as a mirror while he picked his nose. 10. September 10: While handling guns in the hunting department, he asked the clerk where the antidepressants were. 11. October 3: Darted around the store suspiciously while loudly humming the 'Mission Impossible' theme. 12. October 6: In the auto department, he practiced his 'Madonna look' by using different sizes of funnels. 13. October 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browsed through, yelled 'PICK ME! PICK ME!' 14. October 21: When an announcement came over the loud speaker, he assumed a fetal position and screamed 'OH NO! IT'S THOSE VOICES AGAIN!' And last, but not least. 15. October 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited awhile, then yelled very loudly, 'Hey! There's no toilet paper in here." Regards, Tom Richards Walmart Manager

sorry , I just realized that both posts were by the same guy. Either way. It is what it is. Sold.

I dunno. I am not gonna go back on my acceptance of my offer to this guy. He says he is gonna get it later in the week then fine. If he backs out no biggie to me. I am gonna keep my end of the deal up. He went to SBN, so when he gets back I will see what hes gonna do. I am clearly not trying to take anybody, as I said, The deck works fine, The harness from the radio to the connections to a factory compatible harness needs to be replaced, and I have had it in two vehicles, and the leads are short , and it still has my toyota harness crimped to it. I just figured that somebody on here might want first dibs on it, so I posted here first instead of ebay. I am not out to make a huge return on it, I just think it would be a waste for it to sit in the closet upstairs in the dark for who knows how long before it gets tossed out. If he cancels his offer , as I said I will let you guys bid over one another for it.

Well, It aint the easiest thing in the world to do, but it is worth the work. After putting in all the stuff ( see my sig ) I have, I can tell you it was money well spent. Money that improved my stereo systems performance, and made the truck just more enjoyable to drive , account not hearing so much of the outside world in your car " luxury car quiet" is what a lot people call it, but whatever. there is less rattling inside , less noise from outside, less tire noise, engine noise, exhaust noise, less of you hearing the next to you rattling the welds loose in his trunk, and few people with their windows down will barely notice you sitting there with your system cranked up, cause your car won't rattle anywhere near as much ( none at all if you take your time and target the noises with the right products) . Yes worth it. check these links out to see what I did.... my thread on the fj cruiser forums part two of the above thread and of course the thread in my sig. I got over 1500 bucks in sound deadener now. Is it worth that? Absolutely !!!!! And as far as re installing the interior goes, with regular adhesive dampeners , you could add quite a few layers before fitment issues arise, its when you get into the closed cell foams that things don't wanna go back in so easy. Just remember to not cover up any bolt holes and trim clip holes, and don't build up layers really thick close to weather stripping , don't cover any factory electrical wiring up, and take your time.

Aww man I had the ole moon eye style chrome wheels on my s-10 years ago. the ones with the big shiny " hubcap" cover that attached to the rim. Nothing looks better on solid white than a mooneye... IMO

man you need to get that shit back on the road. Looks good.

Damn man. Shit sucks sometimes. Hearing this kinda stuff will certainly make you stop and think just how quickly life can fade away. Sorry to hear it. hang on to the good memories. Damn. Sorry to hear it. give the family a call. Let them know you were his friend. I bet they would love to hear a funny story about him from you.
