It'll be 40+ degrees today so no worries.
Another beautiful day in Cedar Rapids. GPS is programed in the car to Metro Buffet with a side trip to Boxcar Hobbies afterward.

There's a cure for expensive mods Bob... the lottery.

Hit that and parts won't seem so expensive anymore.

Funny you say that I stopped at Casey's this morning and had the wife pick out her favorite Powerball number and I picked my Mega million numbers. Played them for 10 plays each. The cashier hands me the tickets and I filled out a Powerball ticket instead of Mega millions. Drove away mad that I spent an extra $20 then looked at the reciept an saw she only charged me $20 for $40 worth of plays I couldn't live with that so I turned around and went back as I figured she would be on the hook for 2 -3 hours worth of her wages. Plus they would somehow be the winning ticket and get voided. So hope I get a little luck out of the deal

Bob, I have went back into stores and gas stations, on numerous occasions, when I have been given back too much change. It's like these folks don't know how to count.

What's wrong with today's education system? Instead of giving these kids laptops, calculators, etc. try giving them a pencil and paper and using their brains to figure things out.

Then again, they don't teach proper grammar either.

Got bored at work so I decided to take a look at Adam Polishes...that was a bad idea. This spring could get expensive quickly.

Ryan You will not be disappointed with adams products. They are pricey but worth the cash.Use camaro5 for discount and take advantage of their deals.Tim S also uses adams. They just came out with a new detail spray. I have the flex polisher and most of their products.

I am looking at some of their products. They have the paste wax and the buttery wax. Whats the difference? Also, have you used their sealant at all? Is it worth it?

Right now I am looking at getting the clay bar and lubricant spray, glaze and some wax, SRVT, applicator pads, and their double microfiber towel to start with.

I do like the Adams stuff. I was convinced last summer at the Camaro Superfest in Michigan. The Adams guys were using the black Lingenfelter Camaro Vert for demonstrating their products, and they let anyone use to try, including the buffer they offer. Plus the website show online videos to watch and learn.

FYI you love that double microfiber! I now have 12 of them
