I got soured on Pontiacs after my 1994 Grand Am blew a head gasket after only 120K miles.

I'm going to be buying a new(used) car with my tax refund. Something in the 2005 range will do me just fine. Just e-filed 10 minutes ago, should be about 2 weeks [:yay:]

Did you pay with a check?

I realize this makes me a snob, but I'm much rather drive Nexa's Corolla than that thing. Risk of deadly sticky gas pedal and all.

It's Pacific Slate Metallic (yeah. I'd never heard of it either). It's basically a greyish blue color.

And yes Smash. I did pay with a check! ;)


EDIT: Hah! And this day just gets better. My boss just showed me the window office I'm going to be moving into. Apparently, due to seniority, I now qualify for a better office than he does...

But, I thought the sticky gas pedals were Toyotas?

Pretty car - I like the coppery colored one.

Not terribly fuel efficient. But I'm sure that it's important to be able to transport one human being at speeds that are faster than legal limits allow.

Grats on the window.

Hehe! Yeah. Took one of my co-workers on a ride. Took it easy for a while, then got on a clear stretch of Mira Mesa Blvd and floored it. We were both grinning and giggling for several minutes. Still being pushed back into the seat as you hit 70 and then decide to let off the gas cause you don't really want a ticket on your first day is fun as hell...


And don't mind Smash. He's just one of those guys who doesn't get the porcupine BMW joke...

This changes after you've been pulled over.

Just get on the freeway during some light traffic (or no traffic) and hit it. You'll rarely get in trouble.

I did find myself almost in trouble when I went to South Carolina for a while and the freeways around the Myrtle Beach area were all 55. I was so used to it being 70, and being allowed to do 80 without issue.

It's generally best not to do really fast speeding while you're in a more populated area because unless you have incredibly keen senses, you're bound to miss something and after a certain speed cops are not going to be happy to let you off.

For cross-country travel, though, I usually average around 75-80 because I'm impatient and I hate staring at the road. The fastest I've ever gone for an extended period was 100 mph for an hour, because I was hundreds of miles away from school and I was going to be damned if I was missing class.

The company we took over outside of Myrtle Beach was on the side of the main highway going to the area. The cops would sit in the factory parking lot every day and spend hours pulling over people who sped by.

I'd imagine that town pulled in a ton of money off of impatient tourists.


The only real reason I had such a lead foot in the area was because while there, I used a rental car. That car ran so much quieter and smoother than my personal car that I didn't even know I was doing 70-80. It still felt like I was doing 50-60 in my old car. And the freeways going around the highway there were not used much, so they were not a lot of cars. The highway was packed, constantly.
