oh yah, just a follow up to my BB Torch's exciting venture with its pos touch panel. althought it was working well for about a week, the errors came back again over the weekend making it a useless feature.

im definitely getting me a DroidX. hahaha.

 

this am driving through rain and around crappy drivers i noticed something about crappy drivers driving old pos cars and saturns in general.

they drive too slow for condition to piss people off.
they brake too early for condition to piss people off.

they should just stay home and call in sick so that brighter people can get to work and get things done efficiently.

 

finally got a chance to pick up some loctite during lunch.

on the way out of the parking lot i had to swirve out of a way of a crazy woman driving a cavelier in the middle of the parking lot aisle with brain somewhere outside of the car. hahaha i clipped a protruding curb with my rear tire but with 195/50's no issue. gotta luv dd's. made to adapt with local dumbarses and airheads.

 

cant wait to motor my FitS home. nice and cool out, it's going to be a nice window down cruise home.

 

Woot, drive home was nice, washed my FitS.

 

gotta werd request from parents (retired) that they want to see snaps of their houses they owned when they lived here many yrs ago. i suppose it could be kinda fun to see wat your old house looks like today after decades passed.

it's going to be very werd though taking picts of people's houses that i dont even know but hope i get some good ones while i make a pass or two in my old childhood neighborhood in my FitS tonight. LOL i hope i dont get chased down.

 

Gotz my new droidx. Its awesome! So much better than my bb Torch as far as smooth processor, accuracy in the touchpanel. Luv it!

 

Only downside is I can't select copy paste like I can on the bb. I can only copy paste on gmail and limited apps. Hope they fix this in the future.

Motored my G today. Was a good drive. . Afterwards pressured up my tires including the spare on my FIT's. tomorrrow going to motor my Z.

 

Motored my Z today. Was a good drive. Looks like the new K&N filters are a go.

The filter is a tad restictive vs the one i was using but got rid of the toilet flushing woosh sound at WOT.

 

Was yet another crazy busy day at work. Driving home in the FitS was kinda rewarding. 　got it some gas on the way home.

After supper my wife practices piano so enjoying her tunes. Mostly classic piano which is a good distant variety from my funk/jazz i play so it's real nice.

 

need to get some mobil1 this week or next week to do my FitS's oil change. i want to do it before it gets terribly cold... the oil life indicator still says 30% but i know it will go past zero again by next March. hahaha. i suppose i could let the dealer do it in a month or so...

also need to replace the wiper refills on the GE this weekend. i already have a new pair stashed away.

 

So today i got the joy again to drive a KIA Rio thanks to a rental in canada... sigh such a pos car its unbelievable.

It reminded me of a corolla from the 80s.
Got back in my FitS when i got home. Ssooooo much like a car.

 

not too much going on today... need to remind myself to do the GE wiper refill change tomorrow. tonight is booked with lots of house chores...

so hope you guys are checking your tire pressures and pumping them up to match the colder weather. for every 10F temp that goes down your tire pressure will drop by 1psi. you want to be at or over 32psi when cold (measure in the morning preferabbly in a garage or before sun rise if you're parked outdoors). i use 35-37psi on both my GE and GD.

 

looks like we got a rainy weekend coming up... oh wellz. means im going to be in my music room most of the time. hahaha. i dont drive my hobby cars in the rain. im just not into washing cars there days. i just keep them clean and only use SpeedShine/Spray On CarWash at best from Griot's.

going to another offsite meeting this pm and im done for the weekend.

going to do the wiper refill swap on my GE as soon as i get home before it rains.

 

Took the kid to his private school this am in my Fit since it's raining. Was a good drive. I should find me a used S2k.

 

Pulled out the z despite some rain. Was a great drive. Only took about one hr to clean and wax using Griots SprayON WASH and SprayON WAX. Looks perfect again.

Going to take the pm easy. Kinda tired from staying up late watching dvd with the wife last night.

 

Picked up some mexican carryout tonight in my FitS. Was a good drive.
As expected, ate too much.

Was quite a bit warmer than i expected. Lost some of the torque i had earlier in the week.

 

dang it, it's nice out today. wish i had this weather over the weekend. hahaha.

these days im looking at weatherchannel's extended forecast to plan when im going to switch over to snow tires.... probably not for another 2 weeks but it's getting colder here.

 

with the crappy weather this am (warm + rain, super high humidity) my FitS was a frikken dog. every gear it bogged. this is especially painful because just last week it was nice and cool/cold and so the car had ample power. this am, super slow. hahaha.

so every gear i floored it to get the ECU to adapt ASAP. i think before the clutch, the engine mount is going to break on my car from the wheel spinning during take off. hahaha. not that im racing or going that fast, no grip for some reason this am.

 

Much colder weather today, means

DEFINITELY liking this weather. Hahahaha. GD was actually quick.
