LOL! So, i think today, i just had the best day ever!!
I went to Brandon, and got to test drive a new Tahoe LT (5.3L w/AFM), and a new Escalade (6.2L), and a new CTS4 (256hp 3.6)!!! All back to back! It was amazing, i still don't even know which was the best, but that Escalade sure moves when you put your foot down WOW!!! And the CTS feels so perfect to sit in and drive, almost like you're one with the car... very nicely balanced too, nice and planted. Just the 256hp V6 doesn't have enough ooomph for me. The manushift feature is nice on the Escalade, but unwarranted if not towing/etc. But on the CTS, i can drive in the manushift all the time! It's great!!!
And then, i went and seen TF 2! That movie is the best movie ever! So much amazing ass kicking action! I couldn't believe it! It's a close call between it and Star Trek though!!

I've actually been co-owner for over a year now. I kept quiet knowing we were changing the name, so I waited for that to happen before i spread the word. We were formerly "Arizona Salon" and now we arre "Salon Fuzion" It's been doing VERY well for 2 years now, and I expect us to grow and expand very soon. Our girls have over 25 yrs experience combined.

So I was on my way home this weekend, and picked up some debris and slashed the sidewall on the front tire. Was only going around 50, so no real damage other than toasted tire. First thought was "Sure am glad this never happened on the highway on my last trip (2 weeks ago), as myself and a yellow ss were playing hopscotch between here and Davidson. Blow out @100+ would have been....bad. On the side note, was wondering if the owner was on here? When I pulled in for fuel @ Davidson they did also (2 ladies and 1 lucky dude lol)Should have bought a lotto ticket that night, not too often you pass the bulls at that speed and not get pulled over

dealership helped me out, I got a new one comin in a week or two had to pay 200 bucks for road hazard warranty coverage but at least it covers any tire i put on it for the next 5 years and these tires on it now are 350 a piece. And i only need one its on the back and there like brand new so i shouldnt have to worry about different amount of wear i only have 2 k on it.
It just really sucks lookin at your car sitting there with a gay ass donut on it!! I dont know how people drive around for weeks on them, i wont even drive out of my driveway with them on LOL

It's just that I thought he would go through ZZP for some kind of turbo. Also a bit shocked since he just got some other mods. Suprising, but still good news! I wont have all the parts here until winter myself, so hopefully this winter is full of fun garage times!
After putting on th 60's, 2.8 and getting a tune had a taste of power and wanted more.LOL. Actually I was looking at buying another motorcycle but after checking it out decided I love my current bike and didn't want to have the slowest car around since everyone else is going turbo or tvs. Plus I already have all the supporting mods. Orderd meth and the zzp h/e too. Can't let raptor rule the rl scene in the town haha.
