wow...just wow...

im sitting here in my room on the third floor and looking out the window i saw someone get in their car, start it, and start revving the hell out of it, i guess to warm it up faster? they've been holding the pedal down for about 3 mins and just now drove off.

I will give it a few extra rpm's sometimes just to speed the warm up but that sounds pretty immature.

haha it reminds me of the other day i was parked at a gas station and some old lady came out and got in the f150 beside me. she put her seat belt on then dropped something so when she reached down beside the seat to get it she just floored it. i laughed and she just jumped up in her seat.

I hate that ****. People do it in the parking lot at work all the time. When I need to warm my truck up faster I just press on the gas slowly until its about 2000rpm and hold it there for a minute.

Probably needs a tune up. That's the starting procedure to keep it running until it can idle on it's own.
