    Monday was slow, mostly waiting to make a night pickup, so I was in bed. First leg was from Lowell, MA to just above 295 on the NJTP, then got up at 1 yesterday afternoon, drove thru Wilmington, Baltimore, and DC rush hour.
    Then followed a drunken cow path down through VA. By the time I delivered at 1 this morning, I drove to a vacant lot, passed out til noon today.

    OK Ramblers!!
    I am getting my new car on Friday FINALLY!!!!!
    It is actually going to cost me LESS than what I was paying before to move up to a new 2013 Malibu!!
    So excited. It has all the features that you can add to the car. All of them! I say thank you to my dealer...he got me everything I wanted: leather heated seats, 9 speakers system, backup camera, sunroof, keyless entry and push button start; among other accoutrements. I can't wait!!!

    I will post a pic when I finally get it. turned in the rental today and got a loaner from the dealer to make it till Friday. Will be glad to stop driving other people's cars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Ya know, if you got the turbo model, that's 259 ponies to play with. And, by the way, the average V8 in the 70s after the emissions kicked in had about 150 or less horses.

    No need to be nervous. That 2.5 has some pretty decent oomph.

    You know what's funny, that big Lincoln MKT wagon has a Livery version that is being equipped with a 275 hp EcoBoost 2.0L 4 cylinder. Now that car outweighs a Lincoln Town Car by over 400 lbs, and the TC I have is rated at 190 hp because I have the single exhaust. They designed that one to give V8-V6 power out of a small footprint engine.

    I do have the turbo-charged engine!
    So that means I will have the same "pick up" (read: zooming speed without sluggishness) as a V6? This is my only reservation about losing my V6 engine.

    The V6 in the GT model G6 ran the mid 220s in horsepower. The turbo 4 makes 259.

    Yep, I'm home! I didn't want to leave, lol. But it is good to be back home.
    I'm tired though. Need a vacation from vacation, hahahahahaha.

    Still waiting on 10.1. WTF. I so don't want to install a leak. But it looks like I may have to. Or get a sim from Roger's or Tmobile and use that to push the update. ****

    I don't think I can do that with a VZW phone, can I? buy a SIM from somewhere else? By the time I get one, VZW will send to me. They started rolling out on 6/26.

    We can use Sachibar and install the leak and not have to erase anything. I might give it a try.
