I need tinted windows!!

You all know how it works. If you are in the front at a traffic light, it turns green, you take off and can start hitting all green lights. You know what I mean?

Well today coming home for some reasons the lights were on a really weird alternating thing and no matter how fast I got up to I couldn't catch the next light at a green (Cough 60 in a 40 Cough)

Well, I got in the front and this next light. I was determined to get to the next light before it hit green. (Traffic was light at this time. I beat rush hour!) It was also just starting to rain so the roads were getting slick (No, I didn't get in a wreck or anything like that. Just provides for better wheel spin). I'm using my left foot on the break and the right is getting ready to hit the gas. I'm also watching the light for the other direction to see it hit green. Well, my light turns green and I stomp on it and do this huge peel out. Well, Everyone was looking at me!!!

I got up to about 75 on that run and I STILL CAUGHT THE FREAKING RED LIGHT!!! I just said how fast I was going. You should have seen the breaking job! It was A+

Now, I'm sitting here at the red light as all these people that did the speed limit pull up next to me after seeing me do that huge peelout. Both the ones that pulled up next to me looked at me. I really wish I had tinted windows! Well, I had to do another peelout just for the hell of it and then make my turn. GRRRRRRR

Note to self: Skip new rear diff. Get windows tinted!

LOLOL That's funny man!! lololol

When I first got my Mustang I was in the opposite situation. It was later in the day and there was very little traffic on State street. This Mitsubisi Eclipse was next to me and we were racing from stop light to stop light. (Little did I know, it was a turbo Eclipse) After getting beaten at every light I decided to get an advantage and maybe jump the green light a little. We were at a pretty major intersection, but traffic was still pretty much non existant. I was watching the light for the intersecting traffic and as soon as their light went red I floored it. I expected my light to turn green but instead we got the green arrow. So I lit up the tires and blew right through the red light while the Eclipse probably just sat there. Probably laughing their heads off. The sad thing is that it was a chick that was driving and she had a friend in the passenger seat. I was alone. The shame....

I'm still laughing my arse off at your tale though, Intel. ROFLMAO!!

Good story! Get the tint. A light or medium tint may very well make any truck look nicer. EOM

yhea, I think tinted windows make F-150s look better.

Talking Get the tint!

Hehe, that's one reason I'll never own another car or truck without tint. I love the privacy as well as the protection from sun damage. Plus, it looks really sweet when done tastefully!
