Re: Weight reduction list!!! JS, this is kind of "off topic" but seriously.. I would look into Xenadrine or Hydroxycut for weight loss.. They have a new formula now with no ephidrine.. I am a pretty solid guy and lost 30 lbs in like 2 months.. I am only 175-180 from 205.. I swear by the stuff man...
BTW: you can get in online for around 22.00.
GNC has the same stuff for 40 +

Re: Weight reduction list!!! With a lightweight car and skinnies, power steering really isn't necessary. I can drive mine with one hand even at parking lot speeds with no problem.

Re: Weight reduction list!!! LOL! Yeah, that being the lightest of all colors (actually, white technically isn't a color at all. Neither is black.)
Thanks for the block weight info. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

Re: Weight reduction list!!! has anyone instead of taking there ps pump off & driving tried to install manual steering so it would be easier as well as loose the weight & hp loss of the stock setup. i drove my lumina for 2 years without powersteering & my arms were hard as rocks.
