  1. Ah, $h!, PHX is too far...
  2. No...here's what I meant...it was if it had, or had not, been put through a trans fluid flush. Tread lightly here, meaning that if the trans fluid has never been changed, then you don't want to subject it to the "power flush" after so many years, as there are seals and all. My opinion. I prefer to change it the conventional way (drop pan, drain and refill) and do it often enough so that what's in the torque converter will eventually cycle out with as many times as I do it. Plus, there is no pressure applied to the trans case. It has worked for the Regal.

    I'd go anywhere (SAFE) at least once. The only time I set foot in Scandinavia was on a SEA-CPH-FCO flight, with the nonstop to Copenhagen (CPH) being the first leg. It was August 1997 and it was raining upon arrival....why even leave Seattle? The plane then lands in Rome (FCO)....cell phones, loud Guidos yelling into them, cigarettes, sun, palm trees....ok, I'm home. As for cruises, I would love to go on a Western Mediterranean cruise for about 2 weeks.
  6. The 2008 LaCrosse has between 3K and 4K. "Fun car" only at this point, purchased in January 08. The 1992 Regal will turn 250 K in a few weeks...probably about 12,000 miles this year.
  7. Well, tire pressure does have a minimal impact. So does the air filter. No "check engine" either... If if was carbureted, I've known those to act a little goofy during the warm-up. If multi-port injected, there should be no problem at all. In fact, most cars run better in cool weather and in damp air. About the tranny fluid....have you done this before? I stay on a regimen of every 20-25K and DO NOT let them power flush it. The pan has to come down and they have to put in a new filter. Be more cautious about this, especially if it's been a while. I think that, if you're already in high gear once at highway cruise, the transmission becomes moot. Maybe a basic tune-up?
  8. Wait, there's even a sexual reference with respect to dead fowl? What haven't you been getting lately? :wink:

  11. QUOTE (empowah @ Nov 28 2008, 12:06 PM) sweet potato pancakes Very tasty. Also, since I've gotten more health conscious, I read that this is one of the "Top 10" foods for your well-being (the sweet potato itself).
  12. Don't do it. "Just say no"... to tattoos. My two cents.

  14. The day after Thanksgiving Distance traveled: filled up north of Portland OR and filled up again in Bellingham WA* (20 miles south of the Canadian border) My new Lacrosse with the 3800 V6: about 64 mph (cruise "on") on open stretches and about 60 mph (cruise "off") through metro Seattle. No A/C, obviously. 32.54 mpg. Couldn't believe it. *lots of granolas in Bellingham.

  18. The QE2 arrived in Dubai today. This is very sad, as it is the end of an almost 40-year career "the world's most beloved liner." When it was launched, the ship's profile was remarkably "yacht-like" for its day. You can see the webcam (from the bridge) link on this other website: QE2 webcam from bridge on QE2.org.uk You can also see pictures of the ship in various harbors, including passing the World Trade Center (see exterior photos).

  25. I think I know what you mean. I prefer the thin crust most of the time but, in the Midwest, there was an awesome chain called Garcia's that did a "stuffed pizza." Unbelievable. If you went for lunch, you had to make sure you wouldn't have to study in the afternoon to sleep...and you could also skip dinner.
