Nice! Me too. Trying to get a car for my wife, and it sure is frustrating. I called a dealer on Wednesday, was sent to used car manager voicemail as he was with a another customer. Left a message to call me and that I wanted to buy a car. So on Thursday no return call so I called another dealer, talked to a rep and told him what I wanted, a 2010 Malibu LTZ V6 (would consider an 09 with low km's or 11 with low price), black leather, sunroof and as much of everything else as possible... prefer silver, blue or red jewel and may consider black or white, 60000km or less. No trade cash deal. So I called the first guy back and told him all the same info. Now it's Friday and still no call from anyone. So now I'm heading to look at a 2010 Maxima, have always owned GM and don't know much about Nissan's but I'm gonna check it out anyway. Seen a Maxima with dual sunroofs, that looked pretty cool...

And I'm playing with a new cell phone I picked up yesterday, after 17 months of no cell I'm now connected to one again. I didn't want to spend huge money so I got a Samsung Galaxy SIIX. I really like the talk to text feature and the big screen. Most of my friends are Bad Apple or Crackberry users so I wanted something different.

And I gotta move 10 bags of mulch to the gardens and add a few bags of soil to the veggie garden and get it finished.

And lastly I'll be going to the Beer Store for some bevi's for when I wash the Envoy, got the Niagara Meet tomorrow and a dirty truck in the driveway! What a busy day it's going to be...

I'll feel it tomorrow. Started about 930 and finished around 530. Took my time and did them in stages. Only wax once a year though - so I try to do them all at once cuz I HATE IT! I don't do windows, tires or trim either. Wash the car, dry the car (shammy, then follow with a towel), put on the wax, remove the wax, then hit it with the buffer. Usually the boss helps me - she'll flip the cars around and does windows and trim. Shes in Myrtle Beach though, so I was on my own.

Hahaha i wax mine every month or two because i start seeing swirls and scratches once the wax washes off (black is the worst but the shiniest once it's waxed) plus i live in an apartment so i cant buff :no:

I'm lucky to wash once a month :rotfl: I live in a duplex, have on street only parking. So I go to my parents to wax. They have an oversized 2 car attached and a 2 car shop. Plus the driveway is like a damn parking lot.

I personally have never waxed mine. It likes mud baths too much. It was waxed by Voltage once for me helping install his lifts.

Hell it was 7 months since it was washed when I did it last weekend.

Just summerized the snow blower. I think it's finally safe to do so :wink:. Going to cut the lawn. Then going to sit back with a local craft brew and read some more of Terry Prachett's Discworld stuff :smile:.

(Unless SWMBO comes up with more stuph for me to do...)

Just finished the yard chores. Date night with the wife. Hopefully I can convince her that we need to see the new Fast & Furious!

Picked up the 32MB AT&T variant yesterday after spending almost 2 years with it's older brother, the Galaxy S2. The phone is amazing except for the fact that the stock Samsung web browser doesn't sync with Google's Chrome browser. Cloud storage of bookmarks is a wonderful asset the Korean designers overlooked. The mobile version of Chrome isn't as fluid as the stock browser. Hopefully, the XDA boys will have a fix soon as others have had similar reactions.

Hoping to do some fishing after I fix my caliper slide boot. Really hope replacing it fixes my dragging brakes in the rear.

I tried doing the 'rear hatch' handle delete. Stupidly I bought 2" carriage bolts (don't laugh). I got everything painted and set up and quickly realized I couldn't shut the glass because the bolts are too long. Then I had to go to work. So next step is to throw those bad boys on the vise and hacksaw/sawzall them down to an acceptable length.
