48k miles.....and then you would have the headache of trying to sell your 8 which would be a great car for anyone because of your low mileage and how you've treated your baby....but you'll not get much on the sale of your car, especially at this time in the economy. Enjoy the 8 you have, and if you want yellow....pay 3 grand to have a reputable shop paint your car yellow.
i'll do crestline, big bear, and idlwyld. but not GMR

I can always take a 100' extention cord and use a trickle charger while the movies playing.
I don't know if my Optima will make it almost 2 hours. Someone bring jumper cables.
I've got a battery charger but we'd need a place to plug it in and it'll 'jump' anyone who needs it.

good point. I think quite a few of us have subwoofers in the 8's so I'm sure they might not be too happy with us. (off the top of my head)

i TOOK THE 8 AND THE COBALT TO THE (sorry) drive in, both had 2 JL subs. they did fine. battery was a little weak, but still started. if you got worried you sould start the car half way through for a little bit.
remember that playing hard pumping bass music is going to draw WAY more then a movie that only has hard hitting points in a few spots. the rest is voice.

yea, i was going to say the same thing. just start the car up for a few minutes to let the alternator charge the battery.
...question though...i know drive-ins have that dialer thing to tune into the appropriate radio station to listen to the movie. the last time i went to a drive-in, the tuner thing had a wire that would hook around the antenna of the car. my question is, where to you hook that hook thing onto the 8 to get a signal from it?

Last time I took the 8 to the drive-in, I had the radio blasting, subs and all, the whole movie.
Had no problems starting the car afterwards.
Of course, that's when I had my optima yellow top, and no carpc.
Now, there's no chance my car will last 30mins.
I'm probably taking the Bu to the drive-in.

no hangy things at this drive in guys...they simply hand you a slip when you pay, to tell you what radio station to turn to, for the movie you paid to see.
Last time I went, I failed to idle my 8...and I had nothing more than the Bose stock sytem...my car was dead...we did the push start thing.
