You got an Amen!

I'm LONG-past "cool"!

Guess I could change my moniker to "Too old to be cool..."

So, what's with the Nitto ad video? I see they have spammed every regional chapter with it.

When does it disappear again?

Oh, yea, I tend to overlook that's what drives the bottom line here.....

Hey, good to see they are spending some of their ad money with IB!

What's good for IB is good for the chapter!

Go Nitto!!!

That said, I still prefer Firestones.....

Partial to Michelins for wet weather traction, but honestly haven't gotten to drive anything with firestones in years.

What's everyone up to this evening?

Good news, it's official. I'm a now an employee of the specialty tools div. of Snap On Tools. :-) It's interesting to realize that you're fabbing parts for one torque wrench that's worth more than your first several cars.

Edit: It was the first day, so no... I have not inquired about employee discounts. That said, it's refreshing to be working for a respectable organization with such professional coworkers.

I was involved with them here for a while, but they are a bunch of goofballs. Sounds like you guys have a great group out there.

It is. The forum's boards aren't particularly active but there's always a good turnout for the anniversary meet.
