Put 'em on the right ones, lol. From another board I frequent, pic taken in Tahoe:

Specifically San Jose? We want to get some basic remodeling done for a townhouse, 1050 sq ft, 2bed+loft/2bath. I would DIY but time is an issue: - add risers to a staircase - paint living rooms, 2 bedrooms and loft: living room and master bedroom have vaulted ceilings - laminate floors for...

Hummer being an *** in California? Never.... :eek: http://www.mercurynews.com/mld/mercurynews/15717564.htm Man apparently trying to pass in median crashes on I-280 By Kimra McPherson Mercury News A driver was apparently trying to pass cars in the median of northbound Interstate 280...

What's the deal with the hp wars among the sedans? 250+ hp for the V6 Camry? Does my 60 yr old father REALLY need to get to the grocery store that fast? I'm kind of confused...high gas prices, more hybrids being sold, the Yaris & Fit...ok, makes sense. But the Hyundai Azera with a 3.8L V6...

A potential customer has a tire scuff mark on her VW bug. I've done scuff mark removal from paint transfers using a laquer thinner, but never a tire scuff mark. Any recommendations on what to use? I pretty much have most everything in my detailing arsenal :).

I've been using the same stuff for the past 3 yrs or so (mostly) and was wondering if there's anything new that I should try. Currently I'm using: -S100 -VM, AIO, DACP, #9 -EO 20/20 -EO Tire Shine -Plexus -Meg's NXT QD I'm looking to replace the EO 20/20 and maybe VM. I have a...

We gave it a test run yesterday with some Korean BBQ and it came out delicious!! Sure beats our dinky portable camper grill...cost just a *little* more too :D.

My mother in law got a job recently at Meguiar's down in L.A. :D. Sweeeeeet, now I can get Meguiar's stuff with a great discount. :woohoo: btw, from what she has told us, Meguiar's really takes care of it employees and is a great place to work :).

My wife and I have been looking to get a home here for the past few years, waiting for this bubble to burst. Or not, depending on who you believe. I have a question, let me know if my assumptions are wrong: 1) People get an ARM because they can't get a fixed rate loan, e.g. not enough $$ for...

Is it better to not do a 401k contribution and have it help accelerate my car payments? Let's assume the following: 5 yr term (1.5 yrs paid so far) at 4.84% APR 27 yrs old, married no kids with $50K in my 401k + an ok corporate pension + small amount in mutual funds I can pay off my car...

I've narrowed my choices down to these (in order) $158 11.5g Tri-colors dices King $200 14g clay set $99 13.5g clay Triple Stripes Is there that much of a difference between the non-clay and clay chips? I'll probably stop by the person's store to take a look :).

My Autopia search couldn't find anything, but then again my search skills are a bit rusty :). Dunno why I thought of this just now after using S100 for a few years, but is it ok to drive off almost immediately after applying a layer of S100? I'm concerned about the wax applied on the hood of...

All of the stuff that I am looking at are either pretty useless or alcohol/tobacoo related. So I'm stumped as to what to get my groomsmen/two best friends. Any ideas? Requirements: - not alcohol or tobacco related - somewhat compact, easy to pack in luggage - no watches or swiss army...

My wife is still in school and takes classes at a community college nearby. I get a call at around 12:30pm today from her, "Honey, no one's here. Can you check the school calendar to see if it's spring break?". And sure enough it's spring break this week. She arrived late to class last week...

Right now my wife and I are in a 2 bedroom apartment. Our lease is coming up and we're looking to move into a 1 bedroom apt in the same apt complex. In the renewal notice for our 2 bedroom the new rate is ~$100 more than the online price (new contract). Before I walk into the lease office, I...

I did one application of AIO and then Klasse SG ~4 times over a span of two months. I have the somewhat infamous Klasse 'haze' similar to this on my car. I still have it after applying VM and then S100 by hand. Is the best option to do a dawn wash? Or use my PC and new pad on my new and...

So the weather here is a bit bothersome for an Autopian. It'll rain one day, then downpour, then be sunny & perfect for 2-3 days, back to rain for a few days, and then sun again :wall. What does everyone do in a similar situation? Just do a quick wash at the beginning of a sunny streak even...

I see the Mother's QD spray bottles everywhere, but haven't seen any of the refills around :(. Anyone find it locally? Just wondering before I get it online and end up ordering way more than I intended :).

I finally tried out AIO + SG (2 coats so far) today and I like the results. The appearance is a hair more reflective and brighter than VM + S100, but is not as liquid...just by a hair. For practical purposes the only person that can tell the difference is myself and maybe another autopian...
