Whats up Denovae?

You havent posted here in a longgg time.

Yea... school got in the way of a lot of my free time and this summer was all about finding a new car. The SRT-4 somehow destroyed 1 OEM Fuel Pump ... replaced it with a Walbro 255lph pump... destroyed that in the middle of nowhere Indiana... had the dealership replace all electrical lines from the main harness to the pump, installed a new walbro 255. My stock turbo died ( so that's two turbos that have died on me - an aftermarket turbo and an OEM. )... the steering wheel cocked itself about 30 - degrees off center to the right - dealership did an alignment and 'fixed' the steering wheel issue but it came back less than a week later. Oh and my CD player and CD Changer stopped working about mid - may during a trip to illinois.

i wanted to wreck the car... but a local place offered me 14k for it with all the aftermarket parts and originals - they're selling the aftermarket parts and replacing the OEM stuff... i didn't want to go through the hassle of parting it out so i said "hell yea!" and bought a fully loaded Acura MDX.

You made a great choice. That thing was definitely going to give you even bigger problems in the future. Plymouth/dodge/neon FOR LYFE :lol:

The MDX is a nice car though.

it's awesome... my only problem with it is that the HandsFreeLink (HFL) won't accept my friend "laura" in the phonebook because it sounds too similar to "four" ... i then tried to enter her as her nickname "bubble" but HFL responded that it sounded too similar to "trouble"... yet when i tried to put her in as "trouble" it worked fine... <_<

I didnt know you had friends :lol::P

But yeah, a small problem with the HFL is better than blown turbos and fried fuel pumps.

I think the whole "hybrid-rage" is worse. douches in hybrids moving slow so they attempt to never have their gas engines kick in.... or holding up traffic behind a left turn arrow waiting for a huge opening so they don't have to press the gas hard enough to engage the gas engine. I was behind one lady who sat there waiting for maybe a 200ft opening before she went... damn prius owners ... you save gas by wasting mine!

ive come to the conclusion that God might possibly love me...i passed a highway cop in a 45 zone(dont know why its that low which is why i go so fast) no traffic or anything going at least 65 if not 70(yes a N/A can attain those speeds)...i got that sick feeling the second i saw him, first time ive seen a cop on that stretch. thankfully he must of not had his radar gun out or just didnt have it on.

first scare ive had of a cop possibly pulling me over for speeding since the end of high school which was 2 years ago

definitely wont be doing those speeds on that stretch anymore
