Newnan meets

The yellow top is a bandaid for people drawing too much additional current even WHEN the alternator is doing all the work. If you're not overloading the charging system and deep cycling the battery (which I doubt you are, your two amps combined are probably only pulling around 80A?) then a regular quality startup battery like the red top will be respond better to partial discharge and recharge much quicker. Ultimately you couldn't make a bad choice, but IMO the redtop is a better choice for your needs. If you had some nig sound system with 3 15" and your lights were dimming and stuff like that then it would be a different story.

I just replaced a Yellow Top in My Dually, it was 3 years old (external factors ruined battery). Truck has a 2500 watt stereo, remoted windows, remote starter, xenon police strobes, 4 Flexalite fans, and all sorts of electrical conraptions. It worked great, just bought another.

Well as a mobile electronics expert, I'll trust your opinion! You happened to save me about $30 too!

I love my tires they will hold on further than I have pushed my truck this far... and I have been really pushing them... I don't think my truck will go fast enough to really lose traction... and I think its amazing it doesn't undesteer with how much my truck weighs... I do think there is a bit of sidewall flex with them though.... the only aftermarket upgraded swaybars are $600 by hotchkis...

Bold: Sounds like you're gonna get it to lose traction unnexpectedly one of these days and then we'll be peeling you up off the pavement....
sidewall flex and swaybars share very little in common.

It's a white DSM with a 16g strapped to it.

Perfect example of a setup actually requiring a deep cycle battery!

Always glad to help! Thank you for trusting and valuing my opinion.

I know this... I've already thought... I'm going this fast and if it does lose traction... ima be uber fucked... and the sidewall flex and swaybars I know have nothing in common in the way the truck sways buy they both lead to it... so if I can atleast eliminate one it'll be better ... currently there is no swaybar on the rear

anyone who is interested in ever buying a buffer, i recommend staying away from meguiars machines, the cords they use are pieces of shit.

[MeFryRice]

^^ My PC started smoking the last time I went to use it. I'm thinking about picking up a Makita unit this time around.

Get the griots garage 6". Unlike my Meguiars paperweight, it has a lifetime warranty (my megs only has a 1 year.) I am going on my 3rd megs unit, and if this next one has this problem, im getting myself a flippin refund. BTW: this is my newest buffer from meguiars, the g110v2, i have a g100 which is 4 years old or more and works flawlessly.

Also the GG6 is only 130 through amazon.

I can put a new cord on it for you if you want.

Thanks but I can't void the warranty. I thought about just getting a porter cable or dewalt replacement cable, but again warranty issues.

Corbin, Andrew, and Ronel: Did you guys see NCR?! I was tempted to pull into the parking lot and check it out.

Hey guys, any opinions on a roof rack on the Fuckus? Go or no go? I'm trying to imagine how it would look. And no, it's not for looks, I have a bike I'd like to transport around.


And why I'd rock the hell out of a Fuckus. I don't mind it at all.

[Sawyer]

Corbin, Andrew, and Ronel: Did you guys see NCR?! I was tempted to pull into the parking lot and check it out.

What happened?

[Bacon]

Ronel, that my friend is a Competition Orange SVT Focus with the European Appearance Package. A buddy of mine had one just like it except his wheels were the factory color and not black.

I've seen a few with a roof rack. Not bad looking.

Saw no such thing. What parking lot was it in?

Why would you post a picture of a Focus with no roof rack if you're asking for opinions on roof rack? :facepalm:

What happened?

I have no idea, but heading south on 74 to go home I saw at least 2 fire trucks, an ambulance, and a few cops all with lights on at the corner of the building, looked like something big.

It was in the corner of NCR, when we passed the stop light right after the post office it was to our immediate right, I don't see how you missed it.

[Bacon]

He posted the picture of that focus and then made a comment that he wouldn't mind having one. He asked his question and waited for a reply.

i think autocrossing is in my future. lol

[SHHHH]

I hope the weather is nice on next friday. I'll be back in GA in 5 days wooo! Okalhoma is too damn hot and the roads are shit.

[Ricer]

you'll love it and get addicted

I'm going to guess someone tripped the emergency alarm by accident. My old boss, whom worked for Hella, was telling me about how the warehouse people would walk through a certain door which would trigger the alarm. Needless to say, the PD/FD and Hella got to know each other very well.

Last nights meet was a decent turnout minus the rednecks that showed up in the V6 mustang and primer grey Z28.

i think autocrossing is in my future. lol

I will do these with you if you want. It's cheap and a lot of fun. Unfortunately, with our mods, we're going to be stuck with a class which will make us look slow. The auto-x guys take this very seriously.

[FlipA]

All the good looking Focus are in Europe wtf is up with that Ford?!

And Daniel, I asked how it would look like with my sedan not the hatchback. Hence the "And" between the 2 part post.

[andrewu]

Oh nvm i saw that. IDK but if there was an emergency, good thing the FD is like 50ft away right across the street.

[PTCDC5]

Well Andrew, now we all know why you and dozens of others that got iOS5 from Nick were bricked in unison...

[bbuba]

dammmmmmmmm... droid ftw

dammmmmmmmm... droid ftw
