Still the funniest thread on this site. I catch up on it every few days.
I was the one posting up some funny **** within the first few pages of that thread.

Out of the 2 camera, the one on my car error out somehow and the one in rear ended up fogging up. I think when I cleaned them a small amount of water must have still been inside of the housing. So I have about an hour of footage but its hard to see whats going on but ill still get it up online for you guys to see.

Yep, get used to it.

The more car cruisers you go on the more chips you'll get. Its sorta like a memento

Cruise video!

http://www.vimeo.com/5567681


Footage is sped up to shorten the video.

Condensation killed the footage , thats my fault for not getting all of the water out before I sealed the camera back into its housing...I didnt realize I missed a few drops.

Alright peeps. My brother just bought a Sony Vaio laptop from Best Buy today. I am having TONS of trouble hooking up his computer to the internet. I ran the wizard, set it up and I am all connected to our network.

Problem is, a webpage will not load. It will say in the bottom of the webpage, "Website found, please wait," or something familiar, but it always times out. When I connect his laptop via an ethernet cable, it works just fine. It's just the wirless connection, and like I said, I am connected wirelessly, but for whatever stupid reason, it won't load a webpage.

I don't know if it is Vista not liking our router or what. I have the latest firmware on our router so that's not the problem...

EDIT: Nevermind. I figured it out. ******* VISTA. Complete **** OS. Microsoft is GARBAGE. Apple FTMFW.

3:26 is where I almost rear ended P when he stopped for people wanting to cross the street.

9:42 is the guy's driveway that flipped us off.

I will never see a dome light turn on in my car. When I first bought, I looked for one and was like "What the ****?"

I finally found reviews on the Bluetooth OnStar replacement thing. It has nothing but praise about it and offer a 60-day money back guarantee. I'll probably order it in the next month or two.

So it takes out onstar and puts bluetooth to your head unit? Hell yeah do that, onstar is something I dont use and wouldnt pay for. Speaking of which...I may be looking for a ford escape as a winter car... we'll see if my dad helps me out some on a loan because even he was like 1200 for snow tires? what the **** you should get a used escape, i love mine. mmm a winter stored ss would be ****.

Buying summer rims and using the stockers for winter makes the money hurt a lot less. That way you're buying something nice that you like instead of buying something shitty that is just going to get dirty and banged up. I spent $2200 between my rims and snow tires and the only thing I ever though was "Well, this is my chance to have a sporty car with no real drawbacks." I refuse to buy used things too. You'll probably end up putting more money into a used car fixing it then buying new winter tires every few years.

yeah but im not buying rims on a loan... You know the only rims I'd get now are the ultraleggaras. And i'd like to get the smallest rim for winter I can. 18" snow tires cost more. Yes it will be cheaper than a truck but its still more than buying winter wheels/tires. The escape is a solid truck, my dad has one and never had 1 issue on his 04. Course a used one under 100k miles is like 5-7k but thats not bad. Well of course you spend more money on a 2nd car but dude...guess how much money my car will depreciate if I drive it year round. My ms3 lost over 9k only because of the miles on it.
