Wow! Your car has completely removed your ability to communicate in English.

Dan, good luck with that car. Although many domestics don't get a lot of love in the press, with regular oil changes and maintenance they go many, many, many miles. That looks like a nice clean one.

Ok, so before I go one with the replies to this thread, I must say that its now in the repair shop

But, the good thing is that based on what the tow truck guy said and my minor searching on google, its prolly just the fuel pump or something.

I also had some very Daoist moments today that deserves a lobby thread imo. Sorry to you non-supporters, but what can you do?

LOL, I thought the same thing when the nice insurance lady brought out the plates.

Oh, and good idea. Didn't even cross my mind. I changed the pics, tho you would prolly have to refresh the thread for the censorship to take effect. Im just dumb while excited

I figured I'd just do a fun post just for the internet

Trust me, im gonna do my best to maintain that sucka. I seriously had that car on my mind for like a week after I saw it. It was one of those "the car chooses its owner" moments. When it stalled on me, I instantly wondered whether it was going to transform....

Its the "graduated licensing" bull***t that some provinces in the great white north (aka Canada) has. You basically have an "L" or learner level where you cant drive alone, or at night, or intoxicated (duh ). That lasts for 3 months to a year! Then you have the "N" or novice stage (some peeps turn the N around sideways, so I guess they're sleepy ). The only restriction is that you can't be caught with ANY alcohol level what-so-ever (which isn't hard for me as I don't drink frequently. Maybe once every 2 years, and even then I don't consume much). The N lasts for 2 years. Mines coming due this January. Thank god for that

A little update for those that care:

The first thing the shop had to do is recharge the battery from dead flat. They had it for a week, and couldn't make it not work. They did put a new batt in there, and I've taken it out for a couple of good, long runs, and it seems to be running just as good as it did on the test drive I did. Apparently the shuddering before it stalled was prolly the "automatic clutch" (lockout converter, etc...). It seems the computer controlling the converter may not have been working due to the battery being so low.

[shrug] Strange..... [/shrug]

It works, sounds good, and that's all that matters

Oh, and I only plan on using this for a year, year and a half at most. Then im gonna get something new. Hopfully
