I wish!

no, i was going to Bass Pro last night, fyi i do live about 70 miles from there. But a little over half way there, my battery light comes on... so i pull over, keep the car runnig, and all of a sudden my lights go dim and radio shuts off... Well my buddy who was with me has an Ex girlfriend whos parents want to beat the tar outa him that live in this town... yea, the pulled in beside me to see what's up... I could see the color drain from his face and i immedeately knew who they were... I had him get in the car, i called mom gave her the situation and explain i may need bailed outa jail if things go south with my buddies ex's family, then told her im gonna make trail coming home after i get them convinced we were passing through. Anyway, we turn around and beat the car to the next town and the lights brighten up, and the radio comes back on... (i was running 4500 RPM the entire time) so that must have brought some charge back. so i slow a bit not wanting to get caught by the cops and a couple miles later it does it again... this time the alternator is toast. well i get to my turn and my car kinda sputters and starts dieing, i shut the lights off and the car comes back. Well i fininsh the last country mile at about 55-60 in the dark...

where's the hot tub full of hotties when you need it...

I just am speechless.....just got a $15 ticket for eating and driving in a town that I'm working in today....

The officer said it got tagged onto the town's no texting and driving law.....he was very apologetic about it....I just told him it was a crock of crap and I'd see him in court....alls I was doing was drinking some bottled water....make him sit in a court room and tie up some tax payer money is a win in my book even if the judge says I'm guilty.....

Yeah, it was between the 7190 and the 9990 because I didn't like the volume **** on the others. There was only $100 difference between the 2 but the 9990 is the Exceleon series so it has a better pre-amp and a 2 year warranty.

I'll pay it....just going to take it through the court first....

Point of principal.....that's all......a group of people got a camera enforcement stop light over turned cause they kept encouraging people to take their mailed tickets to court.....and they did, causing a drain on the judical system.....



There's a town around here where its illegal to have your horse in the bar after
10pm....
