    You had said that the storm was stronger than Sandy in the "wind" department bu saying your chairs did not fall over in sandy... That is where my logic came from...

    Yep... More what I was getting at... More damage the longer its around... Doesn't have to be that strong either...

    If you add in variables like rain soaked ground thats possible. I'm just talking about my silly lawn chairs and they have no roots. :D

    Sounds like Fed-Ex smartpost right? Never ship via smart post. All items must go to VA first. I would ship items from Philly to Phily and they would go to VA first. It's not even really Fed-Ex...it's the USPS in disguise. Fed-Ex never even picks the products up the USPS does.


    :confused:

    50mph wind gust for 30 seconds that doesn't knock over a chair will not do so just because you prolong it.

    Ill run the numbers tomorrow on my computer. I could be wrong, but it would go against all my real world experience.



    couldn't be...the paint looks good and it fits.

    dimple die craziness to the max yo!

    Yea, avoid smartpost at all costs. The extra savings is not worth it.

    When I was web slinging I would get calls like yours all the time.... I told the people that they picked the shipping method not me so how was I at fault?

    No, but it's absolutely gorgeous up there. Adirondacks are awesome, hear it's a little buggy up there now but I'm sure it's totally worth it!

    What's your guys opinions on Audis?

    I'm letting the shop look at my car but if they cant fix it and have called subaru and everything I'm getting rid of it.

    I went to look at a 2014 Audi A5 premium plus today and I can get it for $46.49 for 36 months.

    To add, $1000+ would be put towards the payments so at least 21 months of the car would be paid for already..

    Audi is ok, but trendy and your at the end of the trend now.

    I'm a Lexus and infinity fan myself....they are timeless in my opinion.

    My buddy just got a KIA optima in white with black on black interior and its freaking sweet!

    When he told me he got it I was thinking it was a total turd. Once I saw it and drove it I was impressed.

    Update apparently all the lifters are wiped out with a 5k estimate. They are contacting GM to inspect the motor. If they cover it the cost will be $1500.00 :pray:

    It seems to be an on going problem with the GM 5.3 motor.

    No it's not. I almost feel everything is built like shit anymore. We have had it to the dealer in the past with the oil consumption problems and they told us 2 quarts of with in a 5000 mile oil change interval was acceptable to GM standards. So luckily all but 2 oil changes have been done at the dealer. I have noticed too the motor leaks oil from the rear main seal, which pisses me off because it's never been brought up and I know it just didn't start yesterday. I know a few of the mechanics that worked there and I asked them about the problem, I was told just check leave it alone and oil frequently they all do that. For a $52,000.00 truck with 82,000 mile on it I think that is a load of horse shit...:mad:

    No the truck is still on jack stands lol

    Ups ground, but I dropped it off at pack and ship instead of the ups center and the holiday must've fucked it up too.

    No but I've been looking at it. Hoping to do an early fall trip to the dacks

    What's wrong with the subaru?

    Audi makes some sweet stuff but idk about their reliability. Gonna be expensive to repair. Just pricier Volkswagens as far as I'm concerned.

    I agree. If it makes you feel better my 50k truck has leaked at the real main seal and transfer case for longer than I can remember. Toyota wanted 1k for the main seal :rofl:
