Isnt it nice to get compliments on your car...It always makes my day when people compliment me on my car...Just today while I was filling up (which cost $53 bucks! ) I had a guy compliment me on the color of mine, he asked if it was custom, he was shocked to hear it was factory!

Well we fed all that came over. There were a few that didn't venture into our neck of the woods. We gave them all random nicknames as well. Like Moto Moto, Achmed, Truffle Shuffle, Thomas the tank engine, etc...

Jamie Lynn, I was thinking the same thing.

"C'mon. Do the truffle shuffle."

Matt, why "Thomas the tank engine"?

you certainly are a lucky person when you can say something like that!! i hope i can have a garage like that some day!!
Stop over. You can help me.


that sucks about the dent, and the decal too. keep us posted.
Tell me.


i got my new tires today, the service at the shop was great, i went in when they were almost closing and they fit me in. the manager was the one who mounted them and he was really nice and made sure to point out the marks on my rims before he did anything, which i'm kinda glad he did because the front left one has a mark on it which i knew but the front right one also has a little scratch which i didn't know. really very nice and gave me 2 of the nascar posters. i forgot to mention that there's a $20 rebate so after that the total will be about $550. he was gushing over my car, it was kinda funny. he said they don't get many nice ones like that, haha. gotta love the monte love!
WE NEED PICS!


Ouch. Sorry to hear about the ding and decal. You left it for a month. How long did they expect you to wait? When the factory puts decals on a car or truck, they don't tell you to wait before putting your car through a car wash. Hopefully the Pace Car is back to 100% soon.
Beats me? He said if the decals had been on the car longer there was less chance of this happening. How long is long enough though?

84 days, 3 hours, and 2 minutes in direct sunlight for a vinyl adhesive to adhere permanently.

...okay I made that up, but at least I gave an answer :P

Thats very odd about the decals. I washed my car at the carwash the next day after i put the one on my hood. I even used the power wand on the body and never had a problem with it lifting on me.
