yeh and the best part is rubbing it in haha!!! I parked my mostly because of the KM and the rock chipps in the paint, it just really save on the car when you dont drive the winters here. they ******* suck!

 

indeed they do. Winters here are hard on ****.

 

i dont really try to hide anything i'm doing. now if only i had jordans disposable income!

 

haha disposable income? I'm not too sure that I would call it that.... maybe during the summer, but not right now.

 

haha same here!

 

Hey guys, I am looking for an OEM Carbon Fiber hood for my 07' Cobalt 2dr. I have no idea which ones are the best to buy as for the quality and so on but I also am hoping to find one fairly local to save on a big shipping bill. Im from Edson,Ab. Anyones help would be appreciated. Just please PM me if you have any ideas. Thanks!

 

Ask in the Calgary thread, I believe there's a guy there that wants to sell his. Just can't remeber who now...

 

Rob why were you part of this site like 2 years before you got ur car>?

Hey, So i have heard the Martin at AFI performance in Edmonton is a wicked tune!!! Rob I know you biased, but has anyone heard of him or his work?

 

Martin is a great guy to deal with! He has built some badass rides (414ci TT AWD Silverado for one).

You cant go wrong with Martin. He knows his chevy stuff.

I heard that his work was warentied through GM???

 

WWWWWHAT? Are you on crack?

First of all I'm not biased. Where do you get off making that up? I've heard good things about the guy, but just because I got someone else to tune my car doesnt make me biased...

Second, I didnt join the site two years before I got my car...That would mean I got it just this past december

I got my car in September of 2006.

 

ohhh hmm i thought that you bought your car when i biguht mine!!! but calmb down Rob, anyhow I heard some really good stuff about him, but i also heard GM warenties his work?

 

ah

well GM doesnt honor any aftermarket work.

 

hmm I didn't think so, but maybe somethign to look into. I have heard different place that do ish.

Ok get this and I'm not bullshitting anyone!! I decided to take my car on a day trip to Revelstoke B.C... Great weather blah blah and ya that freakin Rogers Pass is crazy ****.. Anyways my car got 7.6L per 100k

It was just about 1100k round trip, over 10hrs on the road and I really never took the cruize off except for Calgary. Oh and I took my spare out. Man thats gotta be a record or something?

Revelstoke or to Banff would be a nice cruize witha bunch of cars, hell my cell even worked very deep into the mountains.

 

I get about 7.9 on average per tank now! Haha. I filled up and drove from red deer to Calgary and back once doing 120 and got 6.1!

Get your car tuned and your economy will sky rocket.

What you got is still wicked though.

 

Ok I just thought that was something impossible after all driving in the mountains up hills and then theres the altitude, which I'm not famieler if its really that much a difference? I seen you guys talking about that fella that does some tuning work so I'll have to keep that very much in mind when that cash flow starts to smooth out.

Now wtf is up with this weather!!!!!!

 

Oh gee I didn't even think about the hills. Well in that case you did very well indeed!

 

That's awesome! I'm sitting at 9.6 L / 100 km right now because all I do is get 6 miles of gravel, then 30 km of highway, and then 10 km of town driving every day, and it's all snow covered and on Blizzaks. And it's winter blend fuel.

We've gotten 3/4 foot of snow since this morning.. it's coming down in small flakes but it's really adding up. This morning it was coming down so hard I couldn't see my wipers on some spots of the highway. A blue intrepid hit the ditch in front of me. Really hard to stay between the white and yellow line and still do 100 km/hr... I really didn't want to get rear ended by some jackass. There were some trucks still doing 120 km/hr (20 km/hr over the speed limit) this morning. Frigging idiots.

 

Yeh, not too happy about the snow, but on the plus side I finally have some money in my pocket for my car that was totaled.... and there is more on the way . AND this is my 1000 post

 

Haha! Congrats. :P I just inherited $1000 from my recently deceased great grandmother. I'm deciding whether I should save it or invest it in the car.

 

Ya what the hell is with this snow!?!?
