^agreed!

sounds great Hoss!

I want one of the GoPro cameras. It'd be great for my trip to the mountains.


The mostqutos were really bad this evening, it rained a bit, and the little bastards were flying all around my ears and face while I was trying to golf.

Our first digital camera had that problem. I was the only one who knew how to hold it the right way so it wouldn't shut off. It was really embarrassing when someone else would try to take a picture of our family or whatever.

Canon is 14x zoom. My current one is a nikon though so I'm just worried I'll run into the same problems. I probably should go to the store to test them first but I'm worried amazon will be out of stock again or the price will go up. Would it be wise to wait until sunday to see if there's any better deals before fourth of july or would I be dumb for risking it go out of stock when I want it so soon?

35 or 45 watt HID kit? low beams only or both?


I've never used them but I REALLY want a set. I have Sylvania Xtravisions in my truck, one step below silverstars


Also, PB Blaster is my new best friend. Got the first half of project camber bushings complete in about an hour. Was soaking it all day, took the wrench to it and had no problems on anything, extremely pleased. I just hope to god I get the adjustment I need out of these bushings, their the biggest adjustables I could find

How do you like the silverstars on the GT nathan? The low beams that I have now post wreck suck big ones, the lights I had before were absolutely astounding, I'm wondering if they were silverstars or something else. Wish I had known.

I'm sick to death of my current one. It makes me wait nearly 10 seconds before I can take a picture and another 10 before it'll let me use the zoom. It drives me insane, especially when you want to take a picture quick. Plus I have lint in the lens now from keeping it in my pocket that won't come out and shows up on most of my pictures and videos. Both camera's specs are pretty much spot on with what I'm looking for minus the stupid expensive GPS on the canon. A DSLR would be nice but there's no way I could afford that plus I want more portability. I also sorta want it in my hands before fourth of July weekend and I'm leaning towards the nikon since it's quite a bit cheaper.
The Nikon is on sale $282.90 at Best Buy. You could go get it there!

The Canon is on sale there too, but only a penny cheaper.

Nathan, if you want quality pics, the most versatility from a camera (i.e. you can do it all), and be able to take a pic insanely quick....... its time to step up to a DSLR bud. Sorry but point and shoots just cant compare. My old (like 2005) Nikon D50 can turn on focus and take a shot within a second if I am quick enough.

They're pretty good. I'd say they're slightly better than stock with the smoked headlights. Haven't tried them with the stock lights. The only thing is they don't last super long and are a little on the pricey side. My first set the high beam in one of them went out in just a few months. The second set has lasted me over a year now. *KNOCK ON WOOD*

I have to pay tax for best buy though which makes it cost quite a bit more.

And for the record, best buy's headquarters are here in minnesota.

I'd love a DSLR. But portability is huge for me since this will be my only camera. Plus they start at $500. I just can't afford that right now. Someday...

There were only 2 left in stock. I bought it. They've been out of stock for the past few weeks I've been looking. I didn't want to risk waiting even longer.
