I have a 96 Accord and love it, though it's time to start thinking about a new one since my wife packs on the miles. The Jetta is nice but the Altima while pretty nice has nervous handling.

We have a 2004 Acura TL with 126,000 miles. Best car I've ever owned. Still feels new. The only thing that broke in 6 years? Seized rear caliper brake. $300 repair. That's it. Amazingly well built car.

It's a little over rated. You race more lose more crash more. I may take a consulting gig in 2011 to kills few hours a week.

In the meantime you're welcome to stay here, snipe with me, and kill a few brain cells a day.

My email is back. Hell, I was afraid it was going to take a couple of days.

I have the TDI sport waggon and I am very impressed with the MPG, quickness, and overall solid feel that you get when you close the doors.

patentcad 07-16-10 10:21 AM

I love the Jetta TDI. Can't go there. Can't buy a VW. Not reliable enough.

Japanese or Korean cars. Oh well.

Prove it.

The aero bars I threw on my bike today removed half of the 3T logos. It says Rotu____u. It said Rotundo.

Physical therapy is reason enough to not crash. Man, this is boring.

It's all about the W/kg, not just the kg :thumb:

You should try being nice to me. I was a pretty ardant supporter of you coming on to the team back when.

Once I get one for myself, yours will be in the mail shortly afterwards.

Hint: Although it would be nice, I don't need a powermeter.

Cool story, bro.

I can't even keep up with the stupid team, and you can't even spell ardent. I'm always nice to you. You are mentally unstable.

You are in the right place.

Racing is even more pointless for me than cycling, and that's saying something right there.

iPhone at PT typing one handed. Bygones.

Velo Vol 07-16-10 10:47 AM

It's getting angry out there in the 41.

You're at PT posting on BF and you think I post here too much? That's impressive and everything, but I only post here when I'm at my desk working with big computer screens all around me or hanging around with the laptop.

Regardless, I always enjoy a good pissing contest. And BF is the pissing contest epicenter of the bike weenie world.

patentcad 07-16-10 10:49 AM

Wait til I get my Prius. Then you'll see. You'll all see.

This is painfully boring stuff with a Muzak soundtrack.
