Chris, don't sell your car! One little break lose shouldn't be enough to scare you into selling your car. I broke my rear end lose tons of times in my TII, and loved every second of it. But if you do decide to sell it then good luck. WIsh I had the $$$ I would buy it, but my house is taking my funds.

Damn Ren you are getting old!!!! I'll be 23 in a month. When are you getting out of Iceland?

And I dont think his suspension is messed up!oh yeah,ya'll might not of heard, but he scratched the rim so bad that they couldnt get the tire on without air comin out of the side of the rim(the bead was screwed up bad) and out of no where it started holding air, So me and Chris put the tire on and it didnt leak any air. he didnt drive it to work becuz we werent 100% sure. but trust me, he wouldnt be sellin it if it werent for the engine about to go and all the other crap wrong with it.
Tony, this is why he is sellin it

I just about lost my first 7 two days after I bought it, back in '96. I was going too fast heading into an onramp (well, too fast for 300-treadwear 195/70-14's, anyway), and made the mistake of lifting off the gas. The car spun car around 180º and stopped less than six inches from the concrete barrier wall.

I learned two very valuable lessons that day: 1) Don't pretend your car is a slot racer on 70-series tires, and 2)DON'T lift off the gas in a turn. Actually, I already knew these things from reading, but there's nothing like a little personal experience to drive a point home.

need i even mention all the stupid **** i have done in random cars/truck/vans/suvs? yes thats right, i said vans

I guess I should have said Happy Birthday to me also on the 3rd. I'm now officially and old man of 30! Damn, I remember when 30 was old...

Ren
i must be weird. i never thought/think 30 is old. then again my parents were thirty when they had me and i have always grown up with parents older than all my friends. but it is like my late grandfather said when someone asked him whjat he thoguht old was. he looked em straight int he eye and said "old is when ya can;t wipe your own ***"

Yeah, it's some new thing that's been incorporated with the reply box at the bottom of the thread only. I left Ryan a message about it in the thread about the upgrades on the home page. I sure hope it's temporary; some people have WAY too big a sig to post every time.

1) More or less means I hope to be stationed here again some day. I will come back to visit at least, but the frequency depends on whether or not my G/F and I get married, and whether she will be staying to finish college here or in the US.

2) Yeah, I work at a cryogenics plant for the Navy. We make liquid oxygen and liquid nitrogen. Sorry, no NAWWZZZ! Too bad, too, because my Hyundai would have a bottle if we did.

Well, I had originally written that, but I decided to change it. Neither way was right, so I just went with something that sounded like I at least I knew who he was.

Thanks, Joel.
