It was good. Went down to the piers to the fish market and ate at Elliots which was pretty damn good. Went to a Mariners game. Went to the museum down at Boeing field. Was going to go to Ranier but it ended up raining the last day we had the car. Fun trip though, broke up the monotony of sitting...

Yeah thanks a lot bear. Useless.

Renting a car tomorrow. We have sims every day from ~3-8. Figured on the Museum of Flight, the Space Needle, and Pier 9 I think it was somebody told us was pretty cool.Will have the car through probably Saturday or Sunday.

What is there to do here? I'm stuck here until next Tuesday.

For the 'holy hell' moment:Notice how things start shaking from the roof and coming towards the camera (getting sucked towards the entrance door immediately behind it), then at 0:31 suddenly gets positive pressure, blows the doors out and all hell breaks loose.EGtumnBej2Q

That second one goes from remarkably peaceful looking out the window to can't see the airplane the rain is falling so hard to oh holy hell let's get out of here pretty quick.Glad you guys all got out fine.

I had a "pop" during turns in my Explorer...during an oil change noticed that one of the sway bar end links was busted. New end link, no pop.

Thanks guys!!! :beer: :beer: :beer:

It's a really...really...realllllly big prop. 13 feet, tip to tip.

Zero to the ground. smilieteaseFigure 4800 shaft horsepower...1210 RPM redline...should be 10410 ft/lbs...each...

37-50 passengers depending on model and almost 5000 shaft horsepower.

Yep Randy. Start class May 9th. Three weeks of ground school, a week and a half of simulator work. Should be on the line mid-June.

May 9th:

check the lines where they go through the firewall. You can also pop the radio and see the lines coming straight out of the A/C unit if I remember correctly.

Sure!261.2 gallons...at let's just call it average of $4.80 a gallon for the trip... $1253.76...

Very cool.Zach S. Dallas, TXI liked Dennis's lonely little pin in Canadia...then I went southwest...way...way...southwest.Have some ideas for flights now. :idea: :beer:

The cable can tend to wear out over time, leaving both the shifting sloppy and the indicator in the dash incorrect.Check the cable for tension and correct mounting (make sure none of the brackets that hold it to the body of the truck have come loose). One of the HD guys will be along soon to...

just saw it on Facebook,Happy birthday!!

Without a doubt...even with the parts interchangability with V6 Mustangs, the 4.0L is limited. The 5.0L has a massive following and a plethora of cheap, easy to access parts of all varieties.I have the biggest Flowmaster they make behind my 4.0L, and while it sounds good, you'll never have V8...

OHV, yes absolutely. SOHC, not so much. An idential Explorer with the SOHC 4.0L will outrun the 5.0L from a standing stop on 0-60 (8.1 v 9.6) and 1/4 mile times (16.1 v 16.8). The SOHC will also net you better mileage in equal applications. People get so hyped up over the V8 they forget the 302...

The quoted ones work just fine for me as well (on IE and Windows 7). The non-quoted original ones do not.I went through his posts and couldn't find any problems in the code, just one of those odd errors.

Hmm...after 20 minutes of going through your posts trying to figure out why the pics won't post, I have found...nothing.I'm a useless mod. :p

Those 4.10s will do that to ya. What kinda mileage you pull out of it Chris?

Welcome to the nuthouse.

Welcome aboard the madhouse and very, very, VERY cool truck.

I'm quite curious about that transmission, especially in terms of off the line response. Is it going to be instantaneous right when you put the pedal to it, or is there going to be a delay as it lets the clutch in.As Ian said, I find that quite impressive.

Not really a car I pictured "scooting" lol.Not real familiar with the Mazda 2...will have to look into it.

Ashley's looking for a new car and seems to like it (mainly because you can load it out for less than a lot of basic package new cars).Anyone know anything about it yet? Granted it's brand new but if anyone knows it'd be you guys.

That's rough. I had to replace almost the exact same stuff on my '94, was about $800 if I recall correctly with own labor, save paint.

A razor blade super-glued to the back of your radio may not keep it from being stolen, but it will definitely make the thief think twice next time.
