very happy with my monte :)
on sunday, my dad and i went to michigan to go shopping, went to auburn hills area and then to the huge great lakes crossing mall in pontiac
well anyways, round trip the car had 450miles on it, and there's still 1/8 a tank of gas (light just came on) and we were going 85-95 miles an hour the whole trip :) cept for when we were stopped @ lights and crossing the border |
RE: very happy with my monte :)
When we rented the '06 2LT to make the trip from Dayton, OH to Nashville, TN and the 2006 Monte Nats we filled the tank on the car one time. ONE time.
Nice car by the way. (next time you come across the border in it we're keeping it) [sm=icon_rofl.gif][sm=joke.gif] |

I've worked IT for over 10 years now, I was surfing the net in 1992 via a company called Promonade and had to call 104 miles away for the nearest ISP on a 2400 baud modem, I still own a Commodore Vic-20, Apple II GS, 2 IBM 486's, 2 Compaq 500's (one being used to play Final Fantasy VII as we speak), 4 homemade pc's in various states, the laptop I'm running on now, and literally a closet full of old parts (8 interal modems from 14.4K+, 6 motherboards, SIMMS from 2MB to 16MB, etc)
I think that is a definative yes to being a geek. Oh yeah, and last week I was playing D&D 2nd edition. |
RE: very happy with my monte :)

well does playing final fantasy make you a geek??? cuz i own all the recent ones from 7 and up, cept for 11(the online one) i'm about 25 hours into ff 12 right now :) so if playing final fantasy makes you a geek then i guess i am one too...lol... but all the computers i didn't have, my first computer was a tandy 1000 then up to a pentium 100 then to what i have now :) |
