A goddamn Fox badge from the dealership.



It's on the list for removal.

Lossy?  :facepalm:

Let him make up his own goddamn language if he really wants. After all, his normal excuse has been that he's not an English major, so he doesn't have to speak the language properly.
2. 1995 Saturn SL2 5-speed, 126,500 miles. 5,000 miles in two and a half months. That works out to 24,000 miles per year if I can keep up the pace.

I don't care about all that shit.  I'll be going to college to get an education at a cost to my parents.  I'm not going to fool around.

I wish I had the money to get some ceramic brake pads.  I'm sick of feeling the urge to clean my wheels after every 25 miles.  I try to brake as little as possible, but Christ; this shit just piles on like crazy. :rage:

Duct tape some plastic wrap inside of your spokes. It will block the brake dust until it melts to your wheels.

Was thinking of computer terms.

MP3 is a lossy format. FLAC is lossless.

I'm not advertising a car care business on my car, but I just let mine go for awhile. I clean 'em every month-month 1/2. It's next to impossible to keep a car clean down here without a garage anyway.

I'm a goddamn engineering student and even i don't make up silly words. We're supposed to be the ones that are terrible with engrish.

A month?  Jesus.  I wash my car once a week, whether or not I've got a sign on my car.  But, I've always been into keeping my cars clean anyways, so yeah. :huh:  I do love the fact that I have a garage.  Unfortunately, I won't have one once I go back to school.  Ugh.

Well, no.  We just got through ~2 weeks of straight rain.  Pissed me off.  Slows down the detailing business a lot. :( Now it's nice, though!  Should be for a couple weeks, with a couple random days of rain. :rockon:

Took the damn Fox dealership badge off.  Payed $35K for a car and they want to get free advertising on mah trunk?  Fuuuuuck daaaaaat!  Nothin' a piece of floss and some Goo Gone can't take care of in 5 minutes. :rockon: :lol:

There's still a faint outline of the badge from crap building up around its edges, but it'll come off 100% next time I wash the guy.  You still want dat Fox, Nick?!?!?!?!

Of course.  Dust will stick to anything, regardless of how much it has been waxed.  If dust didn't stick to waxed things, my car would never ever ever ever be dusty.  Alas, it is.

It would take 4 minutes of my life, and it'd be hilarious to see my Fox badge on your Swift, but whatevvvvvv.
