Not that early. It will have to be after 1500 any day. Skipper made it clear that the end of the workday is 1500 and "happy hour" or the ships cleaning out is at 1415-1500 to ensure folks remain aboard. If not I can meet up this weekend.

Or if all else fails you can just shoot me pics.

I dont have a problem with mine using it all day.

If u turn off 3G and wifi during the daw when your not using it ti helps on the battery usage.
Plus certain Apps suck battery life.

U get the new update yet? 2.1??
Battery life better with it??



My judge went easy on me today...


Its my Sons 1st B-Day.









Sorry Shawn

Not a problem. No rush. I won't be installing for at least a month. If any one cares to help me with this project let me know. I can supply the beer...and food. My wife can cook like no other and is great with asian dishes (yes she is of asian descent).

Ah, no big deal. We were beat from 10:30 to 7:30 highway driving and ended up calling it a night. I have duty this saturday. But I believe we have friday off.

I need to change the oil in the T/A. I see most people use Pennzoil Platinum here. I will do a search but what do you guys use?

One of the tv car shows like 'Horsepower' or something replaced all the fluids(motor, blower, tranny, rear end, and coolant) in a bone stock '03 cobra and picked up something like 15hp/15tq on a dynojet!

Well there is no secret oil that any of us use. Oil is oil, just pick one that fits your budget or one you like. Royal purple never really impressed me with its tests. You put fresh fluids in any vehicle and it will pick up power, doesn't mean it is special. Gimmicks usually cost you extra money i.e, 8 bucks a quart.

Well I'm only 23 and felt that owning two of my dream vehicles paid for in cash was worth mentioning. I didn't add my wife's 01 Corolla, maybe I should?

Oh wasn't looking for a miracle oil. Just curious. I always ran Valvoline in my GM trucks. They seemed to do better on it. Anything over $5 a qt. is far too much for me. Never ever been a fan of RP. Back when I worked at Oreilly's Auto Parts Mobil 1 was the best seller for full synthetic by far. Amsoil is great from what I always heard, but you have to rely on finding a reliable source. What is Amsoil running a qt.?
