NO SHOES ON THE CARPET!

…………..David Farnham of Salt Lake City.  This jackass left his 2yr old kid in the car so he could catch a midnight showing of the Dark Knight.  I’m a big fan of TDK but you sir, you are D-bag.  I hope your wife kicks you in the nuts.  Hit the link for the story.

About two weeks ago, the clutch went on on the focus and after a few days, I was finally able to get it into the shop.  They confirmed what I already knew, the clutch needed to be replaced along with the slave cylinder and the flywheel.  The repairs would cost me about $1150.  After much debate and back and forth reasoning, I convinced myself that the focus didn’t hold enough value to drop $1150 more into it.  So I began looking for a new car and was interested in a new corolla, civic, jetta, or xB.  After a lot of research and test drives, I finally settled on the 2008 Civic Si.  So last Friday, I parted ways with the Focus after 7 years of pleasant driving and took home my new car.

So far, after 3 days, I have no issues.  This was a great purchase.  It’s sporty, quick, sleek, and fun to drive.  It packs 197 horses in a 2.0L VTECH engine guided by a 6-speed manual transmission.  This car came loaded with options such as the powered sun roof, rear wing spoiler, chrome performance exhaust system, 17in alloy wheels w/Z speed rated tires, premium cloth interior, and a premium audio system.  I could go on but you can read about it here if you really want to.  More pics here for your viewing pleasure
