BoostenGTP02, could you shrink down that sig. It's over 5mb and it would really suck if you had a slower connection.
$2600 is a lot of money for a stock build. Probably would have been cheaper to find a lightly used one.

BoostenGTP02, you know the drill.
Your pixel size is barely okay, now shrink down the megabyte size please.
Not everyone has high speed interweb.

I know how you feel Boosten, I'm starting to run out of money for gas for the beast. It sucks because I have 2 summer jobs that I do pretty well with but by the time they're done all the stores have already loaded up with people for the holidays.
Finding a job after the holidays FTL!

where do u work at boosten? I work at a place called Byron Center Fun Spot, its a roller rink, making 6.50 an hour, its not much but its a job. and 20gtp02 thats how much i did pay for mine with 140,000 miles. and then a month/500 miles later. BOOM! motor blew, so im better off to rebuild the whole thing, start from scratch, pluss has a 100,000 mile warranty.
