Damn it! I'm tempted to somehow buy the Nismo rear fins from Peter at M1. That would be the ***** with the rear bumper tucked in.

That sucks. Oddly enough, I didn't see any accidents on the way home.
Did you hear about the drunk driver on Hiawatha this morning? I heard he hit a car so hard that it took out the trunk and the car blew up and burned the dude inside.

Hey guys, a little off topic here but where is the absolute best place to take your car in the Twin Cities area to have pre-cut clear bra installed? Preferrably a place that does high end cars. I need to get mine done in the next few months here so it's ready in the spring. I've had to have the fascia buffed two times because of bug stains. The flex agent in the clear sucks. It never completely cures.

I towed 4 people up hills and out of snowbanks today.
My friends G20.
Some dudes Q45 on 20s.
An indian lady in a Honda Odyssey (had to drag that thing up a steep *** icy hill)
And a Cadillac CTS.
This truck is epic. it literally does NOT get stuck. Just plows through everything. You bog down a bit, throw it in 4low and it climbs out. Just an awesome truck.
08 Silverado 1500 Vortecmax btw. It is pretty damn quick for a truck too. 367hp...

One of the installers actually went to school for auto body work...so I told him that I would pay for lunch or give a little bonus if he would install the new Stopper's into the door to fix the problem. Most of the labor is in taking off the door panels...which they will have off anyways to isntall the dynamat and car alarm. Then I will can redo the tint with out having to worry about that #%^@ door screwing it all up.

I was out by concord (wakota arena area) today. an accident and two semis were stuck so I couldn't get back on to 494 east bound from concord. Had to go up the steep hill past wakota arena. My little nissan didn't do too bad.... better than the chevy z71 in front of me I went up to 5th street and got on the highway there.

Wow, that sucks for that guy...I bet he is just happy to be alive. I saw two semi's that were stuck on the road! One was stuck on the off ramp to 13west from 35W and the other semi got stuck going up a hill approaching 35W on 13east. Everyone started merging except for two people who were actually nice enough to stop and try to help the semi out. Not sure why the other people didn't want to help...they were going at best 5mph.

How impatient was that driver?the kid just got off,give him a second to reach the curb/snowbank.He should be fired then forced to work for metro mobility he would learn patients real fast.The world is turning into ****,almost time to grab the rifle and head for the hills.

Well it sounds cool lol but I agree not practical. I think the closes thing that resembles hills No/So Dakota badlands/blackhills or in MI the porcupine mountains I have hiked in 2/3 places and you could borrow your self deeper then a Alabama tick know one could find you.

Nice not the drive,the awesome snow.I got spoiled snowboarding in UT/CO/NV. in Minnesota we call it Iceboarding.I think I might take the old snowboard out of the garage rafters.At second thought I want the snow to melt not accumulate

or a shotgun
Only if the zombies take over...
I'd probably stick around the high rises of downtown Minneapolis or St Paul.
