Needs some chrome 22's 8-)

V is still all torn apart. I guess I should try to work on it at least one time a week.
and I do not like chrome. It displeases me. |
Pics look good. need pics of V there when shes back together
|
I should just add, I didn't make the trip up there to vacation, lol. I had to go back up to where I was stationed in the Army for a court case. I'm suing the dirtbag who I sold my Durango to for non-payment. Good news is he didnt show and after I showed the contract he had signed and other evidence, the judgement was made in my favor. Now I get access to his bank info, assets, and social security number in order to locate funds to take my money from. I found out I can also put a lien on his house and with some effort, even force the sale of his house.
When my friend(my roommate tagged along for a ride) and I finished with all that paperwork and additional filing, we stopped by a large Army surplus store up there. He wanted to go to Canada which was just 25 more miles North, but we didnt have passports with us so I just went 8 miles west to the lake. |

I remember a few years ago I didn't need a passport to get into Canada. Probably changed though.

Yeah, I actually think they checked us then.

NJ to Lake Ontario... Did it cost like .60 cents in gas :)
I need a gas sipper a new Cruze has been in my cross hairs for a month now. Good to see you like it |
I just bought a cruze last weekend...
I love it. You get the 1.4T or the 1.8? http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-...21648283_n.jpg |
Gas cost like 80 bucks or so for the 10 hour round trip, so not that bad really. Plus that will be repaid to me through the lawsuit as part of my expenses.
I have the 1.4T automatic. I'm getting close to hitting 20k miles soon and only minor issues to date. I've had the car a year and a half now and I think I was one of the first to get one(in upstate NY at least) because in Dec 2010, I didn't see another one on the road anywhere. Took about 3 months before I saw a second one. When my lease ends in March 2014, I'll need a new daily driver. I have decided already that it will be a Cadillac(to compliment my CTS-V). I'm thinking of a used Escalade/SRX or a lease on a new ATS(or buy an ATS-V if I'm crazy enough). |
Nice plastidip :)

Funny how people like the same cars :) Sold 2 of my old trucks and eventually i will list and sell wifes 2004 SRX and Her 2002 Alero she bought new :-? Cars we are considering New model SRX and a Cruze :) You guys have some nice rides and good to see one of the originals going trouble free especially with up NYS winters. |

-The transmission was a little jumpy and wandering before that but now seems to have gotten a lot better since the previously mentioned ecm re-flash. It doesn't "search" for the next gear anymore really. -Trim around the shifter popped up a little after one of the clips in the console broke for no reason. -At start-up, sometimes I have a loud whining sound, more like an electrical whine though, but goes away once i start driving. It never caused an issue and in the times it was at the dealer, no one ever brought it up, so I don't care. -Last week the A/c needed to be recharged already so it must have leaked out over the fall/winter/spring. Remember, I got mine in Dec 2010, (almost 20k miles soon) so it's one of the first batch out and bound to have some issues. But I am still very satisfied with my decision to get this car. Its comfortable, fun to drive, better on gas than my other cars, and reliable. And since mine is a lease, I'm not too concerned about its longevity. It just needs to stay running/driving until March 2014. Haha |
Haha yeah! Nice man! I'm glad I got it too...... It's very comfy! And sporty for a daily! Did you do the air box mod? And gap the plugs?

That makes 4 Cruzes I believe?
As to the poster who is thinking about getting the new SRX: Don't. Probably the worst car GM currently makes. Not for faults or defects, but the overall car is just a giant pile of meh. Get a Terrain Denali with the 3.6. You will be happier. |
