      im not gonna sweat it. eventually she will get what is hers anways. as for the police, o well. a freind of mine is currentlly going through training, hopefully she will be the turn around needed. im not saying all the cops here suck but from my experience with them the last 4 times in the last 2 years they have done nothing to help. they are to protect and serve the people but so far i have not seen them uphold to wait the y claim to be. i now there are some that do good but i just havent had...

      Is this possible? Im sorry for the shitty situation, but this would be absolutely hilarious if this turns out to be the same 2 people that hit each other.

      You get taxes taken out of your unemployment checks then get a return on them, and it's usually nice since unemployment is like 60% (or whatever) of what your wage was anyways

      If anyone wants to hate on me because a got a little in tax return then go for it. it doesn't affect me anyways. I got under 2k back and what I got back is what I paid in.

  3. up at 4:30am still. cooking breakfast now for the wife who goes to work at 8am. gonna hate this but hopefully she will be happy. on another note, cant wait for tax return. putting a good amount towards subs, wood, adjustable alt regulator, and an smd-vm1

  4. so i know i have a sensor going bad on my car just dont know what sensor. gas mpg is down to about 15per gallon, while in gear at a stop it has some shaking to it, every once in a great while when i first start up the car and go to leave when i give it gas it acts like im not on the gas at all. cleaned the maf sensor. i had a used tps sensor that came off the car that i put back on. dont want to spend a fortune replacing sensors. im gonna start with the what the smd forum suggests the most. t...

      oh i see.. so you have no check engine light but car still acting up

    3. alaskanzx5

      alaskanzx5

      exactly, use to only act up at random but now its all the time. you would think that if its effecting the gas milage the computer on the car would catch it but hasnt. im gonna hook it up to the scanner and watch the sensors as i drive down the road see if one has anything that looks off. my dad is a mechanic but the last time we did it nothing looked bad. the proplem has got worse since then though so maybe it will be easier to see.

      If there is something wrong, the OBD-II would pick it up.  Right now I have a random multiple misfire and a bad heated o2 sensor.  You can tell it's misfiring slightly.

      ill be in covert, thats where my wifes family is. its like a hop jump and a skip away from south heaven and kalamazoo is like a 30 minute drive away.

      ill only be going to shows with in about an hour or 2 drive of where im living for a while but if i stay there and dont go back to alaska ill be sure to get out to other comps further away.

      rather not answer why im leaving oregon, ill just say that family should treat family this way.

  8. 5.52cuft for 2 t2d415. would it be worth it to go through the hassle of cutting some plastic and metal to gain .16cuft (5.68)? not sure if it would be worth cutting the car up?

  9. the wife wants to move state, i wouldnt mind doing so either but where to? she has family in michiigan, i have family in oregon. so many choices that i just dont know. would love to see my family agian, its been 7 years but i cant keep her from not seeing hers.

      Then it'd be a sacrifice. Someone isn't seeing their family, at least not often. Montana is closer to both states than Alaska, but yet still far. So if move to Michigan or very close? Ain't seein your family in Oregon. Move near Oregon? Won't see hers. Kind've a lose-lose situation. Think #1 thing though is job. Montana/Wyoming don't really have much.

      You also gotta think, if you move to oregon. You could get in a minor fight and she will use that shit against you haha. (although, im generizing most women, your lady could be cool about it :M )

    4. alaskanzx5

      alaskanzx5

      all valid points that make it so hard. i know i could get work in oregon and she could transfer to any state. she itsnt 100% on wanting to move back home to michigan because of family issues there but then again she has a lot of memories there.

  10. just had to completly reprogram my computer. lost so much info and pics... come to find out my brother inlaw has been downloading porn and music then putting it on his phone and deleting it from the computer. computer crashed but up and running agian. took a whole 3 hours. can you guess who will never touch the computer agian?

      yeah lol. I went through H&R and got the emerald thing. Saved me like $30 total and all I'm going to do anyways is pay off a credit card and buy an alt (MAYBE IF ANYONE MAKES ONE!!!). But hopin weds/thurs, get a status of "approved" then money like monday/tuesday at latest.

      Well, moved for family and no one acts like family anymore. They all just want what will benefit them. Goya take care of my wife and kids before worrying about other family members. It's a job working at a car audio shop in Alaska, start pay 12 an hour. I know the owner, real cool guy and has helped me out a few times.

    3. alaskanzx5

      alaskanzx5

      I've sort of been looking for a job in the car audio field fir a little while now. Tired if working dead end jobs, this will give me a chance at a job I can turn into a career. The shop dies everything from car audio to home audio and even sell nice high end furniture to go with the nice during sound setups they can custom setup in your living room. Not to forget the discounts I can get. Push them to but smd product to help petiole in the industry learn the right way to setup amps and eve...

  17. so lately my alt belt has been slipping a good amount. no system in the car right now and my voltage sits around 13.9-14.3 with the belt slipping. every now and then i see 14.8-14.9 when the belt isnt slipping. replacing the tensioner pulley soon belt is new. then when ever i turn my high beams on (hid) or off my hu cuts out for a second.

      i am, its my belt tensioner going bad. i have one sitting in my closet. im gonna go over all the wiring for the hid and make sure everything is good. ive already checked the hu wiring. its a new deh 80 prs, seems like whenever their is a quick voltage drop of about .5 or more it shuts off then right back on. actualy might be trying to get a 2 door hatchback same as mine but mine is a 4 door hatch. the body on mine is all beat up paint issues and its an auto.

      thanks guys, the one thing im worried about the most is insurance is up on the 1st and neither of us qualify for insurance through the state. then medicare says we can only make 1600 a month in order for her to be covered. i dont see how that could be logical for a family of 5 making under 50k a year.
