Thanks. I actually looked at the Boss 302 and the Camaro 2SS's. There's just something about the Vette that I couldn't pass up.

Funny thing. I just spoke with my insurance adjuster, and they valued my car at $2K more than what I owed on it. So, who said they don't hold their value?

Bunch of morons.

There's also another power port on the passenger side, under the glove box. Most people end up hard-wiring them in, hiding the wire's along the rear-view mirror, then over and down to the fuse box.

"Only" four months? Holy cow. I usually ended up changing mine every 6-8 weeks for every car I've owned. My previous car was an 05 Mustang with 209K miles on it, and I was putting 3-4K a month on my...

It's a long road to recovery with ups and downs. Yesterday was a good day, but today's been rough. My ankle and leg just starting hurting WAY more than it has over the last few days.

Well, I got lucky. I work part-time in the ER that they transported me to, so I got some pretty heft doses of morphine and dilaudid for the pain. When it came time to try to reduce the fracture, they...

Yeah, you got me on that one. The tat would be on the shin, not the bone, but you knew where I was talking about. Where the accident was is directly on my normal route to and from work every day, so...

I'm thinking of getting an "Iron Man" tattoo on my tibia. Too much?

Talk about irony. I got home from the hospital today to find my overlays in the mailbox. I think I'll just save them for the next car. :)

As soon as they quit giving me these damn drugs, I'll be 100% ready again. I see this kind of stuff every day at my job, so I probably have a slight advantage on the mental aspect of dealing with it....
