Those winds are just as bad as a tornado.
And you don't want to live in MN cause there's too many tornadoes. Get the camera ready.

I was on the edge of 2 storms. Got some rain and some wind, and there was constant thunder rumbling from afar.

My sister was driving home in it and her steering started having problems. Car is parked now and one of her front wheels is sitting wrong. The top part of the wheel is where it should be but the bottom part of it pushed out. Kinda looks like this: \

I guess i'm playing taxi service tomorrow.

I have an admission to make...

Today I saw a white 2010 Camaro SS with the gray at the bottom, black chrome wheels and limo tint and I thought it looked good.

Not Seven good, but better than some 2010 Mustangs I've seen.

I dunno. My mechanical abilites are limited. My brother-in-law was thinking tie rod but he's away at a shark fishing tournament until Sunday and hasn't seen it. I took it for a ride and during a left turn you feel like you lose control and are sliding on ice.

I like the look of the Camaro. I don't like it enuff to own one though, and I like my Chevy's. The interior does suck big time.

This car looked really good though. I guess I've just seen to many yellow, orange, and green ones to really respect them. It looked big in white, but still mean if you know what I mean.

I gotta look up the color options. I've seen so many different colors i've lost count. Some do look better than others. There is always a silver one parked at the post office here in town. Not a good color for that car.

I just priced it out and its a $40,390 car


It was Summit White 2SS with the RS package. But it had the Ground Effects Package which is a $2,260 dealer installed option.

I think usually a tie rod will make it turn out or in left or right. Like if you had the wheels straight ahead, the bad one would be turned to the right or left. The ball joint would let it lean in or out at the top or bottom like you described before like this / or this \ if you are looking at it from the front of the car.

I've seen several of those around here, but all of them have been 6ers. Saw this one at the Hot Rod Power Tour....

This town I live in is like Camaro heaven. The Chevy dealer sells twice as many cars as teh Ford dealer so there are Camaros everywhere.

For some reason the hispanic population really favors Chevys here. FWIW.

In this area in high school we used to call the Camaro a Mexican Mercedes.

Now that you mention it, one of my old Blazers had a ball joint go and it looked like that. It also made this awful noise when I turned too. Looks like it will be just sitting there until next week.
