    Right, because the goal is to not have to be there for them to know its not ok to dig. Results may vary but its worked for us. And like I said, the shocks aren't violent... Just enough to get him to pull his head away from what he's doing and look around like WTF.

    ya we used them on our dogs, damn barking there asses off when no one was home so for the first bit we had to have some one fake leave and sit inside and bump them every time they did it. animal control kept being called by this old hag next door. BUt then they leared it was the collar and so when it was put on they had to calm down and be good. But then they had time when it was off and could go crazy and they did. One of my irish terriers was super stubborn and tough and he would eat the shock on high damn near everytime, then he got even smarter and would go out and shake so it went to the side and he could bark and it wouldnt register .....hence get one with a remote. Simple minded creatures they learn quickly....thinking about one for the cat now.

    Yeah, a 30K Tesla would be cool.

    IMO, the only remaining drawback to any Tesla is its range. About 230 miles is the max for the model S and from what I've heard, subsequent models will have the same limitations. I know that the supercharger network is expanding all of the time but right now (and for the foreseeable future) any cross country travel is pretty much limited to the interstates. It will be a while yet before I can drive from Seattle to Powell unless Steve installs a high output charging station in the garage. :)

    charge station in CDA idaho is between buffalo wild wings and golden corral, not the typical hybrid crowd from what i have seen.

    ghaha felony flats, great name and so fitting for that area. The apartments behind lowes over there when they were new i was looking at them for a place to live till i realized it was low income and required was a total of like 18k to live there combined by all the tenants. I couldnt even have a 4 bedroom to myself starting out lol. Then I heard how ghetto it became.

    Isn't it ironic how this factor colors our choices. I drive the corolla like a crazy man because IDGF. The truck is different.

    Talking cars, I just was daydreaming about replacing the Fiesta with an RS3. That 360 hp I5 sounds so good! Too bad theyre out of our price range at the moment haha. Gonna look for a decent used one in a year or two I think.

    Haha I know I know, deep down i like them. I always thought the ST's were pretty decent looking, and the RS just looks even better. Definitely mountain slayer for sure.

    yea for sure. Only ford I've really liked and would consider purchasing in recent memory that wasn't a GT500 haha

    be interesting to see what the downsides to it are. As inevitably, there will be some somewhere.

    And how it stacks up agaisnt the subies.

    Yeah i'm curious to see how it goes as well. Power-wise it's already an STI killer. But once they're around for a while im curious to see how they do.

    My dad of all people bought a used Ecoboost F150 this last summer and i'm a little worried about it lol. Turbocharged gas motors aren't exactly popular for their longevity, so i'm trying to get him out of it before issues start coming along. I know they're bound to happen with my car, but aftermarket support is massive with the EJ motors cause they've been around forever. I just dont think the Ecoboost has been around long enough to have all the support yet.
