It's OK, but I have weakness for Hardee's (Carl Jr's in some places). But talk about a breakfast that will kill you if eaten more than once a month!


Most of the time, it's Waffle House for me because I can control it a bit better there. It's pretty bad when Waffle House is your healthy choice!


Damn it, now I'm hungry.

We have a morning roach coach team. I'm a sucker for their bacon, egg, & cheese muffin with some sauteed onions. 2 bucks! I always tip an extra dollar.

I'm thinking of getting PSS once it starts raining every single day here. Last time it heavily rained, I took a forced turn and slid into the other lane... at 20 mph -__-

Luckily there wasn't a car next to me or it would've been a mess...

while the PSS are a great dry and wet tire, they aren't very well suited when your average morning temp is below 45 which is why i don't run them year around.

You might want to think about stepping up one size to the 225-45R17's. I did and there are no issues so far. (I don't expect any.) The cost was the same as for the 215's so there was no reason NOT to step up.

^^this especially for the stock tires^^ They are definitely a summer-only compound.

True, we just choose to come to a stop using different methods and style points depending on the weather....

Had a weird thing happen last night with the car after watching the game. Unlocked the car and opened the door, the chime that tells you "headlights on" or "don't forget your keys in the ignition" started going off. This was when I entered the car.

Tried to replicate the issue many times but nothing. Shrugged it off as an isolated incident.

Little bugger is trolling me, I swear.

You drive just like me, then. With the same car and the same tires.
Long lost grandfather?

...Although, I usually add a little Scandinavian flick just to annoy people.
