Theres nothing worse than owning an Evo..

..And not being able to drive it

I've owned my Evo a little over 2 weeks and I've driven it twice. Spent the first couple days in the shop swaping out springs, and now I can't drive it cause I got laser eye surgery. Hopefully wednesday I'll be able to take her out.

think about how much more clearly you'll be able to see the white lines blur! Just kidding, be careful, don't need to wreck it! Enjoy your new-found clear vision!

well for a few months or even weeks after the surgery your eyes will be sensitive to light..... its nuts......

I've been seeing halos and glare like crazy.... florescent lites drive me crazy and cars with low beams look like high beams to me.... but all in all each day gets better
