Well I got behind some old lady that wouldn't drive over 20 mph all the way into Ann Arbor she was leading a pack of cars, took me 45 minutes to go the 15 miles to my wife's office building...On the way back I was able to do about 45-50 without any trouble.

THANK YOU.

I REALLY miss living in Syracuse. Anything under 2 feet of snow is a "meh" there. Here anything over 3" is OH MY GOD!

This kid that I work with didnt come in today because his stock daddy bought Saab 9-3 is "too low to the ground" :rofl:

Christ, you had a dealership change your plugs? Thats a $16 job if you do it yourself.

Get the code and let me know. Blinking usually means a misfire. I would have highly recommended a half can of seafoam before you took out your old plugs to prevent this.
