You do remember the Evo came equipped with AWD, right? Pussay!

As long as Im at least nipping at the heels of a liter bike, Ill be happy
After hearing the Black in my car Mikey was sold.

I have those three days off work and thought it would be a good time to come. Just need to make sure my cams are there by then.

I'm guessing my car will be ready by this window. I'll talk to Luke next Monday probably, and let you know. I'd love a ride down in your beast!

I just had my PRT today and I ran the 1.5 mile strech in my car (after I ran the 1.5 mile) with my friend Brad that has a SRT4. He was laughing so hard at about the half mile mark he said he was buying an evo this weekend. His favorite is the semi truck turbo sound

hahaha Well if your fiance was making 180,000 a year would you kick her *** to the curb? Prob not, I'll live with her

I like some firm ***. I tell he she is fat once every couple months to keep her in the gym. She only weighs 127 so she is not fat... lol It's called playing mind games with her.

Well my wife doesn't make that much but she does work at bestbuy which is ****in awesome. And I didn't say kick her to the curb just teach her the passengers job is to shut the **** up while your gettin your drive on

And yeah my wife is pretty understand since I'm dropping 20k into my car that could go toward a house...but I tell her being in the military it doesn't make sense for us to buy a house unless we wanna rent it out and I don't really feel like leaving my property with a property manager...I've heard some bad things.

But yeah she tells me she doesn't like the fact Im spending so much but she supports me and shes glad it makes me happy.
