    I sure feel bad for these guys. I hope the conditions are good.
  2. Athlon, I am not ASE certified... I am just a shade tree mechanic that has been working on cars ever since my father made me (one of the best things that man ever did for me BTW). 20 years or so... I am sure that does not hold a candle to your experiance. But my parents also instilled another good thing in me... how to spot a scam and that device, sir, is a scam. Point one - as Vii correctly pointed out seriously dude the only things that start that expensive and sell that cheap are A. old cell phones B. Stolen items C. False and or misleading claims about (fill in the blank). Since we are not talking about A OR B I am left with C as the most logical choice. Point two - My original point... ANY vehicle that you put in on that web site it will claim the SAME performance increases for your new truck and my old car (I drive a 99 Saturn SL1). It also makes that claim for these cars too... http://www.gfchips.com/astonmartinvanquishs.aspx http://www.gfchips.com/geometro.aspx http://www.gfchips.com/bmw530xi.aspx http://www.gfchips.com/daihatsucharade.aspx http://www.gfchips.com/smartfortwo.aspx and every other car I that I try... Athon, I respect you and what you can do is amazing all I am saying brother is BUYER BEWARE! Peace
  3. DON'T do that.... not from them. Reason is it is a sales pitch and nothing more. The instructions and claims are the same the dodge and the chevy that I looked up. I dont trust them. I dont think that it is worth risking voiding a warrenty.
  4. I have tried the rice method for drying electronics and can report success. Rice pulls moisture from the surronding area very well. heat, airflow, rice and time. bout a week or so.

  6. Really? I thought that I had heard that it was an Astra but that was a few years ago. Regardless I stand corrected, thank you for your clarification.
  7. QQ more bro? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVptre3Ixyk
  8. Not that you have a say in the matter (we both know that you don't) but do you like the change?
  9. Subaru is a great car in the snow Elvis... you will get many years of enjoyment with it. I will be buying a new car in the next few months and I have have come to the conclusion that for me the right car is a Chevy Cruze (Opel Astra for the euro guys). The Eco model gets 42mpg hwy. Like Forrester I drive 40K or so a year.
  10. good to see you on Kim

  12. the out side... The inside(s) Glad I was not the guy sitting there.
  13. Quote from the article... "Excellent product. Most prisoners confessed within five minutes of the first application. Can recommend. Yours, Ali Muhabarakah, Secret Police, Damascus " AND "Picture the scene: a badly sunburnt, blistered and shaved Boris Johnson carries two red Space Hoppers accross the surface of Mars. This is an accurrate description of the current state of my genital region 3 weeks after a liberal application of this product. Seriously, my once proud Biggles looks more like the lone equine survivor of a fire at a donkey sanctuary. On the positive side i can report the following unexpected benefits: - My pain threshold has almost trebled - I can now pass urine in 3 positions: standing, sitting and curled in a ball weeping. - using a shammy leather and some wax I was able to polish up my ballbag enough to act as a signal for passing ships, saving me from certain starvation one time when i was stuck on a desert island It is due only to point 3 that this product gets 5 stars"
  14. At the tender age of 28 Tyler is Sexy and He Knows It, just like these people... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghrDIQ-K8mg
  15. I played a little with ACRE... I like it
  16. So what happens when your daughter kicks you in the nuts with ice skates?
  17. The RAM series of trucks is really mature... My only beef with them is the tranmissions but that is more MOPAR in general and NOT specific to the RAM. I hope that it serves you well. Oh and I think that you should drive up to the chevy dealer in you new truck and wave at the staff... with 1 finger. I will let you pick the finger.
  18. Its not... Chris Roberts is running things and it will succeed. Furthermore, if they were selling stock in this company I would invest.
  19. Insureance ... Insurance One major issue we?ve seen come up time and again in the past week is that of ship insurance. What does it mean, how do you get it, who is eligible and so forth. We?ve put together the following short FAQ document to try to explain the topic: What is insurance? Pilots in Star Citizen can purchase insurance policies for their ships, modifications and cargo. This ensures that your ship will be replaced and/or its modifications and cargo will be subsidized should you be destroyed in a fight or accident. As in real life, insurance policies must be maintained: you must pay a regular fee in galactic credits (the in-game currency) or your policy will lapse and you will not receive a payout or a ship replacement when your ship is destroyed. Will this Insurance cost a lot? Like in real-life insurance should be a relatively small part of your regular in game expenses which will also include paying landing fees, trade tariffs (if in a system with lots of infrastructure and law and order), fuel (if you don?t collect it yourself from a gas giant), buying cargo to trade, hiring help, making upgrades to your ship or even buying a whole new ship. Some of the additional policies like upgrade or cargo insurance will be rated based on risk levels. Risk level 1 being the safest systems and risk level 5 being the most dangerous system that is insurable for cargo or upgrades. Any risk level over 5 is un-insurable. A risk 3 policy for cargo will cover you for all cargo losses in a risk 3 system or below. The higher the risk level of the policy the more it will cost. As with the base insurance this will not be crippling financially but instead be a reasonable running cost that relates to the risk / reward profile of the systems flown. How do I get lifetime insurance? Anyone who pledged for a copy of Star Citizen before November 26, 2012 automatically has lifetime insurance on their pledge ships; this protects the investment you made in the game in perpetuity. Anyone who pledged for a copy on or after November 26th starts with a finite insurance package for their ship. This can be anywhere from 2 months to 12 months depending on the ship and policy type. Lifetime insurance does not exist for modifications or cargo. What happens if I don?t have insurance? Your character will have to buy a new ship with any credits he has, or if he doesn?t have enough credits fly missions for a third party (both NPC and player) until he?s earned enough to buy his own ship again. Will ships I add to my account have lifetime insurance? Users who registered and bought at least one ship before November 26, 2012 can purchase additional ships with lifetime insurance for the next twelve months of development. Users who registered on or after November 26, 2012 can purchase additional ships with variable length starter insurance policies ranging from two months to twelve months. Can I trade my lifetime insurance ship? Yes. The lifetime insurance will follow the ship hull when it is legally sold or gifted. If the ship is stolen or otherwise captured, the policy will not transfer. Will my insurance carry over to ships I earn in the finished game? No, and you cannot transfer insurance policies from one ship to another. Can I use my insurance as an excuse to simply ram other ships to death knowing I will get my ship back? You can, but this will be a very bad idea as it is inconvenient and time consuming in getting your replacement ship ready to go again. Additionally there will be an increasing delay in replacing your ship every time you make a claim within a certain period of time. Can I insure alien or one-off ships? No. The only exception is the limited number of Vanduul fighters sold through the RSI site during the pledge campaign; these ships do have lifetime insurance included. What will you do to combat insurance fraud? A ship cannot be sold without a legitimate hull id code. Claiming on the insurance policy invalidates the hull code on your previous ship, so if it was captured or stolen the new owner will be unable to sell the ship at a regular ship dealer. Additionally if you have claimed on a policy and someone is flying the stolen ship in a well policed system, the hull id will mark it as a stolen ship, the law will be after you and landing privileges will be denied on any lawful planet. You will be able to fly a ?hot? ship to the less savory parts of the Star Citizen universe, where you will probably be able to land and may be able to purchase a fake hull id code, but it will take effort and not necessarily be cheap. Finally the Advocacy takes insurance fraud very seriously. If it can be proven that a player has colluded with another player to defraud the insurance company, that hull?s lifetime insurance will be invalidated and the player may have to pay a large amount of credits to keep their record clean and not be marked as a wanted criminal.
