Welcome to the IHoP
Nice You will really like the A6 for sure. I think you'll like the 340hp out of the R/T as well our charger r/t (patrol car) has zero lowend. teh crown vics pull alot harder out of the gate, but the charger is extremely smooth on the top end. easily faster then the vics, more refined, but with the lackluster bottomend, definitely not a "fun" car on patrol. even my z71 jumps on it out of the gate and IMO, even the truck's torque curve is too high up the rpm band compared to my 04. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Got my First ticket...
Thats straight up horsechit. I'm not sure how the law works in your area but apparently it's based on something else other than actual law. In most places they can't pull you over for something you did the day before(unless its criminal). Where I'm at if the cops here see you but don't get you, then see you again later w/o the system on, they can't ticket you for it. I should know, I went thru this from a rookie cop and the judge threw it out because of this. But yes, tickets suck, that's why I only bang on the interstate and my bass amps are switched on the remotes. Rules Of The Highway Bitches! re-read his post. he wasn't pulled over for the previous bumping, but rather the bumping (factory or not, in the tunnel or not) of that day. and sound does indeed carry more inside the tunnel. The previous incidents did indeed plant the seed. this cop knew to look for the OP and knew he was going to be loud. again, it's the officer's discretion whether or not to execute the stop and or issue a citation. if this cop feels he should write a ticket everytime, well, that's up to him. also, bumping on the highway can get you pulled over as well, depending upon location. meaning if you're inside city limits (and said city has a sound ordinance) at the time you were bumping on the highway, you are getting pulled over. if nothing else, it gives the officers PC for stopping you in hopes of finding a bigger ticket in wait. bottom line, you don't want stopped? don't give any reason. oh, and if you are in illinois, the vehicle code allows for ALL vehicles to be pulled over. there is a statue in the book that essentially makes ALL vehicles in violation of something. i'm sure most states are similiar. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

LCP= refined keltec p3at. i'm selling my keltec possibly. thinking a wheel gun, like my charter undercover .38special, is a much better choice. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Got my First ticket...
officer discretion as to when and where and what vehicle. he heard your from 75 feet away, be it loud or not, factory or not,it can be heard. and i guarantee you got the ticket today today for the previous days bumping. you might get it tossed, but then again, how does the court know you didn't change systems in the meantime? like it or not, you had this coming, be it in the 'bourban or the mazda. like jim mentioned, this officer knew you, and knew you liked to bump. it's a chance we all take with our systems up, and the law doesn't care if it's stock or aftermarket. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Welcome to the IHoP
I'd imagine they'd have to cut the weight down a lot, or otherwise the tradeoff from a regular transmission would be too much for most people...I know Honda made the Hondamatic, but other than that I don't see a lot of automatic motorcycles out there (other than the super-scooters, which can be bigger than some motorcycles ) that cheap, korean maybe, weird named motorcycle is cvt, IIRC. i'll have to google the damn thing to make sure. there are a few around town here, dunno if i'd put it on the interstate. i'll be back..off to google and jim, good luck on that beemer! wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Give me your opinions on vehicles
yeah, they don't wiggle much on price. though i disagree about the looks. if set up right, like ours, it's actually a mean looking little gocart. i enjoy looking at it, not too mention the looks i get getting out of it, lol. but from your standpoint, price is a bit too much to overcome. our insurance only went up $108 a year compared to the silverado that was traded in on it. if you like the mazda 6, why not look at the mazda 5? i like the hatch/wagon version. maybe a 2-4 year old wrx?? wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

your car has some to do with that. that gas tank doesn't help the sound, lol. the sw8100 is also the LMS driver, IIRC. which makes it closer to the rl-s then the rl-p. and the LMS isn't all that efficient when compared to teh underhung rl-p (iirc, it's underhung, lol). if my memory serves, you should notice a difference in switching from teh 8100 to the rl-p or the ICON. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

rl-ps don't model well, lol. and i never trust what the program says, just way too many in car differences to say for sure. what i will say is this, the eclipse subs and the rl-ps are cousins. amongst other things, they share buildhouse and cone material. the icon is the outsider. paper pulp cone, different buildhouse, amongst other things. the icon and rl-p just have really good people behind them. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Sub suggestions
the rl-p is good with anywhere from 1 to 1.25ft^3 sealed, at least IME. i loved my rl-p in 1.25ft^3, LOVED it!! a lil polyfill and boom!! teh ICON would be an awesome choice as well. personally i prefer the rl-p sealed over the ICON, but the ICON is still a great choice. i just love my ICON ported, lol. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

what were the cooper's drawbacks? (save that you drove the auto, tisk, tisk) can't be room, especially if you are looking at a crossfire. i'm 6'2" and fit just fine. if backseats are just for grocieries (my son rides in the back comfortably behind his short mom, he's 5'9". we have gone 4 deep no issues. i've plenty of room to scoot forward), then the car is perfect. they hold their value, we are averaging 28mpg combined, with very spirited driving. (hard not to drive the car that way, lol) they seem to fit what you are looking for. well, maybe not price wise. but i'm curious as to the drawbacks. and i like sean's last post. i think that says a lot ansd should direct you towards the cars you should be buying. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

new to me car - system ideas
that speaker combo is going to be a bit over his budget, but worth it. and chad, that's not just a cutty. it's a supreme, lol. in 86 they also had the cutty sierra, which is nowhere near as cool, and fwd. when you siad 86 cutty, that's what i pictured, not the supreme. just nitpicking, lol. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

My new Challenger!
nope. been typing it since 2001 or 2. can't stop now, lol. if the wheel wells are anything like the charger/magnum, it'll beg for 20s. 18s would work. old school rally wheel would be pimp. and that wing you're looking at isn't bad, but looks better without. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Or it's some kind of inuendo, like she's offering the cigarette for after the sex she wants to have with you because of the stress she caused with the parked car. considering she stayed the night and one of the guys walked her out and gave her a kiss goodbye, I think it's fairly likely she had gotten laid recently you smoke?? ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww sorry, had too. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ick, no whew.....good. i was worried there for a second. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Welcome to the IHoP
ya thats about how it is here plenty of traffic comin from the east My cousin and her fiancee live in southern louisiana and on their way out of town on saturday a lady ran a stop light and hit them and totaled the car. The lady didn't have insurance or even a driver's license. I'd be so pissed off. we pulled over at least 10 vehicles from louisiana last night. all but two used the gustav excuse. and while i sympathize with them, they were well over 9 hours away from the hurricane, and unless the hurricane will traget them individually, well out of danger. there is absolutely no need to be doing 80-85mph in a 65mph zone that far away from the damn storm. the two that didn't use the hurricane as an excuse (one a truck with quite a bit of their belongings in it) didn't get a ticket, everyone else did. we did let one guy off the hook for driving down to louisiana to help his step kids evacuate. kinda makes sense to be in a hurry going that direction. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee for cool cops! I never give excuses but sometimes I wonder if it would help. And if its an excuse it will be the absolute truth. "Officer, I really have to pee." excuses will usually get you the ticket, unless it's something completely brand new. " i have to pee" only works if you ask the officer if you can step out of your vehicle and use a tree. we had a chick do that saturday night. we freaked out when she asked and ran out into the woods. problem was, she asked after we issued her the citation. she mentioned she had to pee, so we thought she was bs'ing us. after bobby handed her the ticket, she asked if we would mind her going in the trees. neither of us believed her until she opended her door and bolted for the woods, lol. this works wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
