guess i did alot with the truck today lol o yeah i set the superchips to the mileage setting and put it on 87 octane and averaged 21 mpg even going through the mountains(adirondacks next time i'll take some pics its very nice area)

found an awsome car wash in albany too and went through it to get all that salt off the sides and it almost looked as good as doing it at home

70%? Thats basically stock UV reflection! I tohught it was at 50% at least. I haven't been up to NY in awhile anyways, the last three times was at night. Summer time i'll remember to keep the winders down.

Drove it all over San Antonio and New Braunfels looking at new cars for Mrs Clown.
any luck?

We really liked the New Honda Accord EX.

What was it about the Honda that you liked??? :dunno:
Drives great. Looks good. Gets great gas mileage. Excellent resale value. Smooth. Nice build quality.

Emily liked it better than the Malibu, Fusion, Jetta, Altima, etc that we drove. I have to agree... although the Jetta has world class seats.

yeah its retarded 70% = no tint but the back window or back doors on quad cabs can have anything you could spray paint them black if you wanted to lol and any % 6" strip on windsheild i guess if i want to be legal go 5% back window with a 5% 6" strip on windsheild kinda sucks i love my doors tinted at least i do the tint myself so i wont be ripping off $100+ worth of tint:lol:

True... but we aren't much on Toyotas anyway. The Scion has been flawless for a the little over a year we have had it, but it's the only Toyota we ever bought.

Thats good! Nice skill to have huh? I'm a Decal and GTint master myself. Order pre-kits through Northern Tint Co which match up perfect with only a little excess and they are great films. Run fine with the heard like Lumar Tint does.
