Exhaust is fixed...
« on: July 09, 2009, 12:24:32 PM »
Took it to Monro this morning, and they had me in an out in about an hour.

The guy behind the counter agreed with me that on a car that old a new cat converter didn't make a lot of sense, and that welding a bridge pipe to replace the sections that had failed was a lot more reasonable.

So, $156 later (included an oil change), I can actually hear myself think again while driving.

Didn't the new law go into efect the first of the month?

Seems to me they no longer allow you to do anything while driving, except perhaps flip cigarette butts out the window.

stay safe.

If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.

Your voices must be different then mine. I'm not always sure it's a good thing to hear myself think. :laugh:
