EH....Comp is on the way......well that is what i was told...but im not too worried about it....i made it this long with out on....whats a few more days/weeks...

Brian...need to pull that chip out of my car in trying out down there and try it....pretty fun little bugger......might start to spin the rollers!

 

checking in. everything is good in Midlothian the best I can tell. I had to do some semi off roading this morning to get to work due to some trees that fell into the road but other than that all is good.

 

my little area of bedford seems to have been hit fairly hard.. no hail but atleast one tree down in every other yard. my trees survived both my neighbors didnt. i took a bunch of photos.

it was a pretty gnarly storm. no damage to the dodge. others around here woke up to trees on there cars.

i should still make buda, unless i get a $1800 tree clean up job.then i might be a day late. $ is $.

 

Okie boys are coming down to my place on Friday. Then we'll drive down in the morning if we can wake up in time. Mmmmm BEER!!!

 

the murphy usa (walmart) in buda is showing diesel at 3.79 if this helps anyone.

 

I hear McKinney got hit pretty hard on the east side...(my side)...with 87 mph winds. I was up and watching the storm come through and the winds were def. tough. But im ok, the stupid cats are ok, and I don't notice any damage to the truck, house, or new western red cedar fence. Thankfully I wasn't in it's direct path.

RJ...no need to be jealous of the trans! Yours works great. I hope mine works as well after I get 100,000+ miles on it! So far so good. I am trying to get scheduled now to go see James for the included free fluid/filter change, checkover, adjustment....

..

 

All well here, but that PM must be hung in the damage somewhere.

No trouble here at the house. Nothing like waking up to a tornado siren at 3:45am. Only thing we had here was a couple of rearranged trash cans. I guess it's a good thing to have a one-story house squeezed between to two-stories, the wind went right over the top.

G/F said there are power lines down around her office over in Irving and Belt Line Road was shut down.

 

Just came back from the Midway/Frankford area....things are torn up down there. Most of the big store signs are down, power is out and trees are uprooted. Looks like we missed the worst stuff by just a short distance.

 

when i drove around town(keller watauga southlake) it appears that bedford suffered the brnut of it. i didnt get the tree job so i am still on schedule for tomorow evening.


edit. anyone bringing any form of grilling apparatus(sp.) i have some more deer links. and RJ there not hot. but very tasty.

 

Made it through the strom Wednesday night okay. Didn't see much damage in the Lewisville area. However the big hailstorm last week got me good. New roof, gutters, wind turbines. Most of my area got damage.

 

I have VAG-COM for the car.. Pretty cool little live data dealeo... That thing can read and test EVERYTHING! like exact fuel comsumption per min or even per stroke! Real time MPG, codes, timing, start up parameters, radio controls, etc.... Crazy stuff..

Apparantly I can set up some performance 'stuff' with it... I'm just scared that I would like it and my MPGs would fall...

 

I know you have to adj your injection per stroke when you increase injectors......

I want to talk to you abotu Vag-Com.....i have been looking at getting it....but never really figured out where, what, how, when and why......

About what it can do....the dang thing found a CODE...freaking code that my car set because the CD changer was removed........ I mean come on! I might hook up with ya on the next trip in and play with your Vag......Com if you dont mind......haha......

 

There are so many things I want to comment about Brian driving a Jetta having a Vag thinga ma-jig, but I won't

Gets me to thinkin' might not be too good if the ol' Lady finds out about that Vag-doohickey upgrade... I mean, it sounds like it could report when ya swing by Beer-30 on the way home!
