Here in the GreaT state of Michigan we all just worry about R tire traction. ItZ best to back Da Truck in the night before, so that you can get up to speed on the approach ramp, before entering the RuNWay.Just start er up, drop er in gear, and mash the pedal to the floor, after all that's why they have those Big Red Thingy's on our mirror's, So they can C us a Coming.

ThanX for Da KooKing Tip..........

Since somebody mentioned using hot water to make ice... The only valid reasons for doing so are for biological or aesthetic reasons. If you boil the water long enough, you kill most of the "bugs" in it. The reason professional chefs like to use hot water is mostly for aesthetic reasons. Hot water has a lower capacity for dissolved gasses, so you end up with clearer ice.

btw, contrary to popular belief among my friends, I am NOT Cliff Claven!

I vaguely recall someone mentioning the hidden odometer, I think it was Neal the HP freak.

At any rate, he found that you can cycle through several diagnostics on the odometer (hp, mpg, etc).

Over thinking is as bad as not thinking at all. Start it up, don't rev it at all, put it in gear and slowly drive away while munching on a cold sandwhich. Its a no brainer.

By the way I have developed a new air box mod for making grilled cheese sandwiches while driving. I'm calling it "The Grill Raid System". Roger will be carrying it here on the online store. I will get pictures up when I can.

Is the hidden OD in a digital dash or analog, not sure how you can cycle through an analog, or is it in the computer hook up for diagnostic that the dealer has?
