Default o2 Sim price hike?
Buddy of mine shelled out $189 @ USA Motorsports for o2 Sims, they told him they are no longer in production? Anyone heard of this?

Yeah, Caspers has discontinued manufacturing or warrantying their O2 sims as of August 2006. Apparently their brass has succumbed to the emissions poh-leese.

I agree with all of you. Our cars get damn good gas mileage for what they are and these tree huggers must die. I loved it when I got my SS earlier this year when gas was still high.

"Oh man, an SS huh? That gas is going to kill you, lol111!!11one"
"No, I get around 30 mpg on the highway."
"OMFG RLY?"
"Ya, RLY."

Because that place will rip you off. Everyone up there seems knowledgeable to a certain degree though. I think that they are money hungry. Why in the hell would he go to a Mustang place for F-body stuff?

Tell him take that **** back. I have a pair that I will let go for 50$.
