damn it! The ABS light came on this morning on my Explorer. A quick google search tells me it might be a bad wheel speed sensor.
I really don't feel like fixing this, maybe I'll be lazy and go to the dealership.

 

weekend was good, must go into detail later though.

 

got a message from a kid in Rancho about RXZ88M. Not crossing my fingers or holding my breathe, but at least the person is close and I won't have to drive all the way to BFE to find out I won't be selling the car.....

 

There only 30 dollars.

 

If you sold your car locally . . .. . . and one day you were out and watched it drive by . . .. . . with someone else behind the wheel

I would sell it to someone who lives in Florida.

 

see i find it funny... evrytime ive went to look at a car to buy, i was the one who had to drive to their house... thats just the way it works.... damn lazy car buyers

 

^^^ seriously!!!
When I was helping Shazbot28 find his 8, we drove like a freaking hour and a half to go to the seller's house. (out in BFE)

 

I'll have to remember that....I guess I was just trying to be extremely flexible given that there is not alot of buyers right now. I figure, if they are in the market, and they are looking for an 8....means they are going to buy one. I just need to make sure they buy mine....

 

Jedi, this might sound silly, but some vehicles use the ABS light as an idot gauge for the brake fluid.
Why don't you check the level of your brake fluid first?

 

morning everyone...

 

some *** wipe dinged the hood of my beamer in my work parking lot last thursday... made an app't with the body shop tomorrow to see if they can get paintless dent repair to make it less noticeable.

had to attend a friend's dad funeral friday, and have been super busy all weekend. then this am i discovered a goddamn squirrel running around the freaking family room. (we had ppl over yesterday, and someone might've left the door open.) anyhow, i was livid. but, i think i finally got mr. squirrel out and made it into work an hour late.

how's everyone else's day going? better than mine i hope...

 

great minds think alike. It was the first thing I checked, no such luck.

 

^ Rats

How's the brakes. Maybe they need bleeding and the brake cylinder is slightly stuck.

 

woohoo...... just installed my manual boost controller...... SHES ALIVE!!!!!!!! it was fun flooring it, getting out, adding a little boost, flooring it, getting out, adding more boost..etc....... i think i have her at 1-2 lbs over stock..which is ok.... but ill wait for the boost to go way up for when it gets tuned.....

but since i installed all my parts, this was the first i got to really feel her opened up shes fast...she faster than fast... she makes fast cars look..not fast! (sorry, mangled quote from The Longest Yard)

 

I never had to sell my cars private party. I have always traded it in to buy another.

 

awsome Jesse! I cant wait to feel her up.

 

yeah me to!!

Calendar page needs updating.

 

brakes feel great. I had new pads, rotors, and a brake system flush done in December.

 

chasing squirrels through your house...that is funny. I can just see you running around the house with a gold club, trying to scare that sucker in the right direction of the front door. Great way to spend a morning, and was definately an interesting excuse for being late. I'll have to remember that one the next time I'm questioned about being late

Almost as good as Jessie's rat story for his Evo.

Our cats brought in a mouse once...it spent two days under the stove before Erica suggested that she had heard a mouse under the thing. Went and bought traps just to prove to her that there wasn't anything under there....well, she called me later that day saying there was a screaming mouse stuck in the sticky trap. Even funnier part of the story was when the cat attacked the mouse, and then got it's paws stuck in the same sticky trap....and hilarity ensued.

 

Boo!, its so quite in here.

 

yeah, work is taking up all my time today.

 

jeid got you letter/check (i think) i didnt open it but it came from a bank i think

 

did u get my check yet loren? i mailed in when i PM'd u a week or so ago.

 

tell me about it...

i came downstairs and was like, "oh crap, wtf is that?!!" (i thought it was a dog or possum.) pretty damn big for a squirrel-... making things worse, my sister left their dog food out in the kitchen too. so, if i hadn't have found mr. squirrel he might've settled in there with ample food + water. <augh!>

oh well- it's funny "after the fact." (my co-workers got a good laugh of that one, and i swear i'll never hear the end of it.) but, what can i say? i always have this kind of luck with stuff. the last time i was late to work like this- i fell out of a tree and hurt myself.

on a side-note. went to the body shop this am, and it's going to be $125 for paintless dent repair to fix my hood. kinda pricey, but, oh well.

re: selling rxz88m... one thing that we learned when selling the acura TL for my mom is that it's worth it to advertise in a wider radius and more affluent areas. we listed the TL in san gabriel valley on craigs list for like a month and no one called. then we listed it in OC, and the calls came in like MAD. there were so many buyers lined up that we couldn't even fend them off. IRONICALLY, the guy who bought it works like 5 minutes from us. (turns out he lives in OC, but works in san marino.) we bought the car new in 2006 for $35.5k and sold it for $29k.

hope u have good news soon.

 

I has a cheeseburger


That is all
