Default What weighs 36 pounds?

The package from FD Motorsports that I am tracking on UPS every 5 seconds that contains my Stage II Exhaust, Oval Tips, and new Silver Center Caps

I think this is worse than trying to sleep on Christmas Eve when I was 10

it only gets worse...next you'll want that 37 pound package, then 38, then 39.

That 36 lber is what we call a "gateway"package. You'll be back, yes sir ree, you'll be back.

Brett,

As mentioned above, it'll only get worse. The packages get bigger or cost more money, and the Fedex/UPS man knows every time he comes to your residence, it's to deliver toys for your Porsche.

Once you put them on, your MPG will go down by half, now you will want to rev it all the time.

UPDATE:

San Pablo, CA, United States 03/21/2012 2:15 A.M. Departure Scan
San Pablo, CA, United States 03/20/2012 11:00 P.M. Arrival Scan
Concord, CA, United States 03/20/2012 9:55 P.M. Departure Scan
Oakley, CA, United States 03/20/2012 3:44 P.M. Pickup Scan

UPS says delivery by end of day 3/27, which is torture.

I am fully prepared to lose MPG! At this point, I am not calling it a slippery slope, I have re-named it the cash cliff!

unlike other addictions in life, admitting you have admitted and embraced your problem doesn't begin the cure.
