My car is nice to commute in they're roomy and pretty comfy but still sporty enough when you want them to be. The temperature guage, i have the same thing on my monte it'll get maybe to 1/4 of the way up driving and usually no higher unless i'm in traffic, seems strange to me.
Keane, thanks for the reassurance, with that I may take it to work tomorrow? I was just a little concerned because I drive the PA turnpike, but that shouldn't matter to much. My commute to work is only about 12 miles.

Hi Todd; I like both sets of wheels. I am glad you were able to get Walmart to do the work for you. Every time I deal with the Walmarts here it is a major hassle. If the car is not 100 percent stock they can't do this or they can't do that. I've gotten to the point that I want to get my own tire changer and balancer. I never knew getting minor work done on a car could be so complicated. I had to argue with them to mount a dam tire because the tire size I either had on it or wanted to put on it wasn't the size their tire book said should be on it. Another time they wouldn't mount tires on the car because it had mag wheels that were not factory. Another time I had a tire that had a broken belt. It was on one of the mag wheels on my Monte. Money was tight and I had replaced one tire a week because that was what I could afford. I was dealing with a Walmart near Disney and they had changed the first three tires without a problem. The fourth tire I was getting done near home in Lakeland. Because the last tire was different they wouldn't work on the car. I had to go into the parking lot and remove the tire and wheel from the car in the rain for them to change the tire. If I had any other choice I would not have done it.
