Better in what way. I like the factory units because they work, they're cheap (free as the come with the car), and they'll fail and sacrifice themselves to save more expensive parts of the car in an accident.

It's like the guys that upgrade to a 400 ftlb clutch with a transmission that wont hold 300 ftlb. You're just moving your failure point to something more expensive. These are the same guys that would use four wheel drive to get stuck, instead of using two wheel drive to get stuck and four wheel drive to get unstuck.

Sarcasm

The internet needs a specific Sarcasm Font.

Either one needs to be created and universally accepted or on that already exists needs to be universally accepted as "sarcasm".

Comic Sans Serif MS. In Purple.

Seriously... Shoot me...
If you watch national news you've seen my city/state is in a state of emergency. Our main water supply was polluted by something they know nothing about. Everyone is being stupid... At work we just guarded water. Walked pallets out and made sure people acted like adults. Had to escort the water truck back and forth. I had to follow behind the FDs pickup that was filled with bottle water for the nursing homes and hospital to make sure no one tried to take it at a stop light... People are fighting over bottles of water (we are on a do not use thing. Can only flush the toilet and put out fires with the water)

I took a shower... A fast one... I'm fine. It's just an irritant not toxic. But they have no idea how to clear it up and latest "educated" guess is this will be going on for 8-15 days..... I'll end up beating someone.

To top it off I'm sick as CRAP!!! I was able to run to the health clinic real fast... Uhm they said my temp was 107.1........... Yea about that.. I was sweating in 26 degree weather but I was functioning. My head hurts worse than it ever has before on my life!!! And my sugar keeps dropping.

Joy!!!!!

Oh this turns me into mega bitch too lol. While escorting the water truck a can wouldn'tove out of the way (I had lights and siren on he was just stopped in the left lane) I had MAYBE and inch between my push bumper and his rear bumper lol he finally moved. Another car decided screw you I have a green light I'm going. So I kept going and came insanely close to t boning him. His face was priceless!!! I don't regret it a damn bit... Idiots...

You should be fine as long as the water doesn't cause a zombie epidemic.

I was watching the movie "I am Legend" and read this. I wonder if a simple problem could cause a "end of world" epidemic...

I wouldn't doubt it!!!! People are stupid. Trying to price gouge on water when we are handing it out for free. My god I slung so many packages of water today.

There are some kind people stepping up and helping out but not many! It's sad.

Rush movie was awesome but you have to hear the soundtrack as well. Hans Zimmer is a f'ckin boss.

love it. the car was silent before and just didn't have a sports car growl that I always wanted. I don't drive on the highway so I can't comment on drone too much.


plus, for $240 shipped (thanks eBay) it was a great deal.
