thats what I got the first time. I'm not a fan of the italian. I like the #8. 11 minutes?! thats too long!

heck, last night we were MAD busy. 6 drivers with about 30 orders waiting to go and phones off the hook. I took 7 delivereies to the same dorm @ FSU and I call one girl to let her know I'm here and shes like: "there is NO way you're here, it must be a mistake. I just ordered 2 minutes ago." i was like: "nope, get down here or I'm going to eat your mistake"

I think on anything before 2000 you can get some good $$. At some point Ford starting using less precious metals in the cats so they are not a valuable. When I sold mine I got $200, new hiflows only cost me $140.
