Popped my cars cherry (motor) at 11,121 miles. The way I look at it is, now I have a car thats almost 2 years old, and only has 11,121 miles! When its back together I might as well reset the odometer, cause everything will be brand new, except the transmission itself.

So is it only Cobalts and Ions? If it is I'll definatly go, just to say I was the fastest car there

Seriously though, MOST of my family lives in So-Cal, and its only a 5-6 hour drive, so its not like some huge trip for me.

NO! Lake Havasu is a waste! Nothing out there but a lake, retarded heat in the summer (120+ for 3-4 months in a row), and billions of idiotic college students partying

Move somewhere in the valley, like Verrado, WAY in the outskirts of Phoenix, so its not too expensive, but development is getting closer and closer.
