global warming is making East Coast winters pretty mild. moose out front should have told ya. :wink:

but seriously: this area doesn't get that much snow, maybe one bad one a year in the 4.5 years I've been here.

Thursday's Weather

If anything, then a nasty mix. I was stuck inside working yesterday and couldn't enjoy the most beautiful weather of the year, thus far.

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.

No worries. Just avoiding the 'When did you paint your car?' :shocked: conversations at the meet. Thanks!

I was commenting on the AWD w/ the weather forecasts. Ironically enough, my ride home is RWD too. :) If the Franconia/Springfield Metro at 7pm is convenient for you, I'd love a ride. If not, RJ has volunteered as well. Thanks to both of you. :)

It was fun indeed, except I got stuck with some guy who just wouldn't shut up!

Sorry I missed the festivities all. Was actually taking a sick wagon to the shop while all the fun was happening. Looks like a timing belt will be replaced. As for the intense smell of raw gas coming from the engine compartment...well, that may take some further diagnosis.

Here's to hoping that she's not too sick.......... :( :( :(

Are you certain it's the timing belt? Did it jump or shred or break?
Who's doing the work? When the timing belt striped on my Galant VR4 it took the head with it. That could be why your smelling gas.

My thoughts are with you and your wagon.
