The meet is ALWAYS the same spot and location (2nd saturday of every month at pirate city tatoo in san bernardino at 9:00 am) The crusie route usually changes from month to month.

All the way from Indio? Glad to have you.

No I was joking about the RX-8's coolant issue.

i hated the "new" look initially. but, now it seems to have grown on me... how time flies...

I agree except for that solid black plastic strip on top of the grill.

my motor should be done today or tomorrow...so I'll be there hopefully.

I swear after a new radiator, new clutch, and motor it better run smooth as hell...or else I'm driving it off a cliff and buying a 3rd rx8. LOL

keith... I'm glad you found that spark to! we woulda been up ***** creek without finding that.

I'm getting the connectors this Friday from Tom. Scott is coming over Saturday. I plan tot take it to adams on Tuesday.


Cesar: I was this close to getting that phone, its an amazing phone. but the lack of a keyboard made me decide not to get it. (that and paying an extra $10 a month for 4G that you cant use here). I went with the Samsung Moment. I love it.
I now have sprint.

Technically, the $10 is because they anticipate people using more data because it's such a cool phone. It also removes the 5gb cap everyone has on the "unlimited data" plans.
You definitely use more data on this phone too. Deanna use to use about 200mb/month she's had the phone 1 week is already @ 225mb. There's so much to do it's hard to put it down.

As far as the keyboard, in landscape view, it's bigger than the keyboard on the Moment. It takes about 1 week to get use to using an on screen keyboard, but then it's super convenient. If I were you, and you're still within the 30days, switch to the EVO and see if you like it. If you decide to switch back, they only charge you for usage.
Not to mention the EVO has a ton of hacks already. I can use free Wifi/bluetooth tethering for the internet.

If you decide to try it, let me know, I'll hook you up w/ what you need.

hmmm. I'm not sure who Tim Albin is??? I'm sure if I saw a face (or a car) I would know. :-)
I'm much better with faces then I am names. I just learned Keiths name last week. I always thought it was SirChickenHeart. (his XBOX Name for those of you that dont know)


Cesar..... yeah, I dont think so. I am almost over my 30 day trial, and I just cant bring myself to pay the extra $10 a month, and losse a keyboard. touch screens and I are not the best of friends. the moment has a touchscreen, but it also has a keyboard which is super nice for text messaging, and surfing the net.
I'm sure your right about the on screen leayboard and getting use to it..... but..... yeah.... i duno.

we'll see.

oh and 5gb limit... I didnt knwo that... thats retarded. that kinda makes UNLIMITED rather...... LIMITED.
