I just found this on Mlive (Michigan news site) and thought I would share it. Some of the MI members may want it for something. It's the Detroit skyline for those who don;t recognize it.

Hello Everyone! Got my HID's in yesterday, rear window decal taken off, and my pink rally pig stickers put on! I tried taking pics of my lows and fogs on, but they look normal in all the pics, but they are pink!! Now everyone will def know its me!

It's beautiful here in the mittin like all our other fellow michiganders have said. Washed the inside of the monte, eating some lunch now, then going to wash and wax him and help my mom with her 300.

I hope everyone is having a great day and staying outside!!

-Ash

Afternoon everyone, spend the majority of the day under the hood on the monte working on that stupid thermostat. What a pain in the ****, but it is finally finished and back together. Missed the race though all well..

Afternoon guys. Just sitting here right now watching basketball. I slept most of the day LOL. I think I have tires picked out for the truck now. Just gonna let Dad know (he said the tires would work fine for my bday present just to let him know the cost and where to get them from) and we'll go from there. All 4 tires plus the full size spare. Asked around on the truck forum I'm on and a bunch of guys recommended the Goodyear Wrangler SilentArmor. They said it has good off road/snow traction and also good highway characteristics and is extremely quiet. Sounds like it'll be great for what I need it for. I'm gonna relax and watch some basketball. Might step outside at some point as well cause it's in the 80s. So freakin nice outside lol.

Oh btw the truck has a new nickname. Up to three now. First two are BUTT (Big Ugly Tactical Truck), BUFF (Big Ugly Fat ______), and now we have Southern Slayer (due to the deer I've killed with it).
