I've just never heard of spark plugs that cost more than $3.
Ever spend $105 on a hamburger? I didn't think so.
That is all. Carry on.

Yep. It was made with "special" beef and some exotic toppings which I do not recall. It was delicious, worth every penny and I would buy again.

But did someone else pay for it??
That's the only way I would eat a $105 burger!!

Nope. Was all me. You just have to go in with the confidence that it will be worth the cash. Why make money if you don't want to spend it?

Been preaching and proving this to skeptics for a couple winters now. Try it.

OK. Cold gearbox - in winter (not in south texas) - I can buy that.

Oh, South Texas, yeah. You might still feel a difference starting out on a cool morning. Just pause for a moment in neutral for that first shift into second gear. Or, if that's normally how you shift, try flicking it straight through neutral with your fingertips.

It spools down pretty quickly when it's cold; quicker than any other I've experienced.

Isn't the whole point of the expensive iridium spark plugs to get the longest possible life out of them because they are such a bitch to change?

I gather cheaper plugs will work just fine, but might not do 50k miles and result in having to change them more often at $$$.

So you can get a wife and kids and let them spend it?

You obviously don't hang out with many private pilots.

Yeah, but think of all the spark plugs you could have bought with that $105!!

I'll pay for a good steak, but not a burger.
I am giving my money to my kids when they need it (now) as gifts to avoid some taxes later. I told them to make wise decisions with it, because we are trying to zero out about the time we die!!

My kids can earn their own damn money. I have no doubt we can zero out all on our own.
