I should note that they were Goodyear Assurance Comfortread's. Another good feature they had was a very good rating for snow which always seems to come every year in this area.:mad: A friend of mine refers to snow as "sky poop.":p
I just reviewed my bill and here is the breakdown:
4 tires@ $85 dollars each
mount, balance, valves 4@ $13 each
replacement tire fee-House act #142 4@ $.25 each
tire disposal 4@ $2 each
4 wheel alignment 1@ $59.99
Total: $460.99 + 6% tax = $484.51

HOLY, wow. You should of shopped around. Here's how I talk to my tire guy.

Me: "I need some BFGoodrich Traction T/A H" (I know they were being sold for around $61 per tire)

Him: "how many you need?"

Me: "2"

Him: "It's going to be $160"

Me: "how many times I hooked you up with some customers??"

Him: "$150 and they are in stock"

Me: That includes taxes, installation, and all the fees, RIGHT??????

Him: "yes"

Me: "cool, I'll be there tommorow morning"

Unfortunately for me, I don't know any tire guys that well.:(

I was really getting angry that I was having trouble finding a parking spot at my university 2 days ago. With a bit of rage, I gunned my car in first gear for a moment.
I've been driving in crazy low rpm the whole past month that I was like: "who the hell would build a car with so much needless power?!" (btw, my car has 55 HP)

174. When you are slowly merging on the onramp to get onto the freeway, a truck pins the gas and passes you on the shoulder and cuts you off... only to have him 4 cars ahead when you exit the freeway.

175. You haven't used your horn in months because you know you'll just lose anyway.

176. A pick up truck is tailgating you and you see that he goes around you to pass but there is not enough space inbetween the cars. So you keep downshifting till you make sure there is absolutly no way he'll pass you. Then you cringe as the fuel gauge is falling.

I was going 65mph:rolleyes:

177. You get such an economical car that you actually start to drive more. So the gas bill stays the same between your gas guzzler and your economical replacement car.

178. Somebody cuts into your buffer zone and you have to slam on the brakes.:mad:

To: Compac888 Your post is immeasurably better than the lame jokes that folks like to email you every day.

Sad (grin) but true.

179. You can't take your wife with you because she weighs 85#.
180. You can't take your cat anywhere because she weighs 9#.
181. You tell your wife to drive your gas-guzzling pickup today to keep her out of the car.
182. You're thinking of lightweight underwear, WAIT no underwear.
183. You ask the shoe salesman if he has a scale.

An ICE is an air pump!
 

I question your technique of putting an auto trans in "N" at a red light ; if airflow determines fuel flow...what happens when "N" is engaged? The engine increases in RPMs, right? More air = more fuel , does it not?
Why not just turn off the engine? No RPMs = no fuel flow! :cool:

so glad im not the only one to do this... :)

haha... read my post from a couple days ago regarding my 'ghetto windows project"

I am so guilty of # 148... Is there a compiled list somewhere? Or did I just volunteer to make one and host it?
