Check Sam's Club before you buy that jack. I got mine from there and I like it more than the Harbor Freight one. I think it was $60, and those fancy jack stands I've got came from there too.
Let me know when y'all go either way. I love that store.
Oh, and anyone who's not working June 5th and 6th:
I really will need some help moving. Beer and pizza help?

****, after Friday, I'm off for a while. Anytime is good for me. I'll need a break from the packing and cleaning. Bad thing is, anything I buy I'm going to have to move to the new house.

Well, if all goes as planned, I'll be joining you fellas in the lanes sometime in the near future. Going to pick up my g-ride here in the next week or so.
The guy says it's an LT car, auto, t-tops and red. We'll have to wait and see if that's actually the case.
It's a good thing I'm quitting my job - I'll have time to work on it myself since Josh can't seem to tear himself away from The Mistress. She sooo monopolizes his time.

well i tried to get a piece of a gto but he wouldn't slow. when i finally caught him and lined up with him he was getting off 20......wtf? he was doing like 95 the whole time. guess he didn't want none. funny thing is....there was a sport bike that saw me on it and decided to get into the mix. he prolly woulda made me look silly but o well. the gto looked stock so i think at had a decent chance for a win.

That's why I hate the damn interstate. I always just get in the fast lane and set the cruise at 80. Last night as I was getting on 49 at Bert Kouns, just picking up speed, this Eclipse slows down and gets beside me, then speeds up and passes me. By then the hamsters were running and I had reached cruising speed of 78 and went around to pass him. He speeds up, like I'm wanting some. 
I kept my speed, and he finally went on about his business. I guess he had a hard on to race ANYBODY or something. I mean, seriously, it is an HHR.

Nobody ever messed with me when I had my Mustang. It was a six, but I had the exhaust dumped and it looked badass. I don't know if they didn't want a chance it because they couldn't tell what I had in it or what.
I've had more people try me in the HHR, but it's usually goobers in mini-vans.

Well I've vowed to get my goddamn Z running right before the end of summer so I can take it to RRR. I'm beginning to point fingers at a possible vacuum leak *sigh* Gonna have to start with that valve cover gasket...otherwise I'll be replacing some burnt *** O2 sensors again.

Chris:
Yah...same codes. P0172 and P0175, Bank 1 and Bank 2 System Rich.
I've been in discussion with Greg today via PM, and I'm gonna drive up to Prescott on Sunday...wanna go? hehehe.. ROAD TRIP! But yah, I cleaned the MAF today and put in a new air filter. SES went off after that, but at 3/4 throttle, letting the RPMs build, she still falls on her face all of a sudden at higher RPMs...WOT is a different story, usually. We'll see come Sunday.
