Why are you so touchy Ragtop?
If I didn't know any better, I would almost swear you were that "boostedstang" guy and snuck back in hear under another name just to pizz people off! It's kinda funny how all these people you are calling azzez are well-respected forum members that get along with most everyone else on here. You got the answers you were looking for. Accept that and go away.

I am getting my post in cause I want to be on the longest thread EVER. This thing stareted over a question over an oil filter change in the mid-point of oil life usage? I must say that I have thought of the same question myself, but figured who cares anyway? I have to go save the world now-talk later.

Too bad Johnny Cochran passed away today. I would have liked to hear his argument on this topic. "If the filter ain't changed, he must be deranged."

I don't have a problem with differences of opinion, but I do have a problem with anyone who seems to enjoy throwing out insults and criticisms like you do pewter99. Do you see me arguing with EVERYONE who's disagreeing with me? That's hardly the case here. My problem is with a punk like you who seems to look forward to his next opportunity to hurl an insult at someone.

BTW when are we going to see some pics of your mat mods? Couldn't help it, the devil made me do it.

ooooohhh you called me a punk you have disagreed with everyone who didnt like your idea....get over yourself...no one cares...I just keep coming back to taunt you because you just won't give up...this is better than OT....I didn't insult you...you don't need the help....
