You work at Disneyland right? Thats pretty close to earthquake. I hope Mickeys OK. I wonder what its like on a roller coaster with a 5.4? Probably adds a little more to the experience.

what a day!! I got called back to work to help inspect the rides, went home for a few hours then back for another eight. I'm beat! But the park handled the quake with no problems. My oldest daughter got really spooked, she sat by the front door all day yesterday, ready to run out at the first hint of another quake

We were doing a wing alignment at the time it hit. Yeah, being on the tool/wing, in a hangar with steel beams above your head is no fun.

I know exactly how she felt.

Thoughts on the 2010 front end?

I like the MWAG rear mirror insert rip-offs.

I'm sure the acutal front end will look better but not bad for a photoshop.

Looks great Sal!

Not sure how Luis' and George's factory nav works, but the one in the Highlander is a PITA to navigate with. I always find myself busting out my trusty Garmin handheld for all my navigational needs.

Off to the OC Fair with Luis in a bit. Jed, you're missing out.

I was actually starting to have buyers remorse when I saw the factory GPS at 281 motorsports yesterday (I was having my gauges installed during the Earthquake)

The Tom Tom is pretty cool, it has many voice options including Homer Simpson! But the factory one sure looked nice though.....anybody wanna chime in on thier factory or non factory GPS? Good? Bad?

Didn't realize how much the Saleen Shaker has improved since those SEMA pics from last year. Makes me want one now.

My Alpine W205 is GPS ready.. the Blackbird II portable docks inside the W205 and transfers all functions to the touch screen.

If and when I start driving my car more, I might consider this option.

Don't get me started on what could've been.

Yeah, I could have got this and had it installed by Saleen. Kinda gives you an idea what I've dumped in $$$ this year.

Such a nice looking car.

Factory nav - I like it. Clean look. Very easy to use. I haven't had an issue with it

Yes thanks for reminding me "I'm missing out" I still managed to get loose with some vodka and tequila tonight we had a wake/birthday celebration for a past co-worker who passed away from fighting cancer. I'm feeling so good I'm going to cook up some blue cheese burgers!

My GPS in my Eclipse unit to so full of functioned it's almost impossible to use. Like TacoBill my Garmin 650 kicks azz on any factory unit out there. The Toyota nav is stupid by all accounts. It's a big waste by a lot of people I talk to.
