I've never killed a car, what are you talking about?

OH MY GOD
I know what Sixty8 means... I've got one pair that's a 10.5 and another that's a 9. How the size can vary so much is just odd. I don't know what my real size is.

Control arm bushings
I just dropped $300 to have my bushings replaced. Yay me.

Facebook
I'm young and gay. It's against all that is right in the world for me to not be on it. I've been on both facebook and myspace for a few years now. Wasn't so keen on the idea at first, but it's great for your social life. I've met more friends there than I have otherwise.

Just the 2.0l with a whopping 116 hp. Spunky engine, though.

I'm having a hard time
I don't care what someone else believes as long as it doesn't affect me... The day that it stops affecting me, I'll start believing.

Cobalt Cometh to Cory
Coming from another great handling car, I haven't found it be quite as tossable as the Jetta. The Jetta was a blast on back roads. I was told the bushings on the Jetta were bad, as well, the last time I had it aligned. It never made nearly the same amount of clunking noise that the Cobalt does. It sounds like the struts are completely disconnected. I imagine this would be attributed to the difference in feel between the two cars, though, I'm sure there is more to consider. The Cobalt is a few hundred pounds heavier with tires that aren't very grippy. Those high RPM's that I'll rarely ever see. It's gutless around town and on the highway, especially with that lard-filled transmission. My Jetta was nothing to write home about, power wise, but it was much peppier. It was always willing to scoot along in those settings. Once you do venture into those higher RPMs, though, the Cobalt's power does start to show whereas the Jetta never had much more kick in higher RPMs than it did in lower RPMs. It wasn't a powerhouse.

I said the shift kit wouldn't be worth the money, thus I'd rather bitch and moan. It doesn't improve performance and only affects the torque converter. The ratios will still be the same, it'll still have four gears, and it'll still shift itself. Fixing the issue would be dropping a 5spd manual into it. Bitch, please, indeed.

The drilling rig outside my home that moved into the area a week ago. Nothing like constant noise.

The Art of Overworking Yourself.
I think the lack of days off is exactly what's getting to me. Especially with two part time schedules that aren't set. My shifts for both change day by day, week by week. That and those double days where I work both.

Let's see: -Fix control arm bushings Vs. Buy an automatic shift kit. -Buy a CAI/exhuast/etc Vs. Buy an automatic shift kit. Or, better yet: -Save money Vs. Buy an automatic shift kit. Yes, I can see exactly why you rolled your eyes. It's clearly the most important thing ever to exist in my life. I mean, god forbid, I might bitch about it forever and that is just terrible. All that time I'll spend bitching could be spent jacking off or even picking my nose. Oh joy! I can't wait! Bitch, please. Again, I think I'd rather bitch and be more aggressive with the gas pedal than spend money on a worthless kit for a worthless automatic.
