Gotta love those crazy red heads(lol!)

[special-K]

I never wanted a Dodge because I didn`t want a vehicle that sounded like it was laughing at me trying to start it.Heeheeheeheeheehee is what they always sounded like to me.I did have one Dodge and that`s what it did.I put more distributor caps on that thing than gas in it.It had to have the Blue Streak or tan and they never lasted either.A new black cap and 1st rain,"Heeheeheeheeheehee",get out the Lectramotive,clean the carbon tracks,and go.Still always had to cross my fingers.

There ya go John. Sometimes guys will let one go like that cause they either don't have the tools or knowledge to tune one up themselves, can't find the time to do it or can't afford to have a shop do it for them. Offering to help him out could make you another friend who may return the favor in some way or another besides the early morning peace when he leaves.

NOW, I would say that she may have POOPED in the nest first, by jumping out at you. My guess is that she may have been on the street first and she thinks that YOU are invading her territory and causing an upset. She is what we call a "Stamp Collector". She is gathering all of her issues and some day she will unload them all on you. Unless you can convince her that you can be the shining hero.

I have to agree,that early in the morn ,or late evening loud(especially out of tune ) cars /trucks would give me a headache also. In the early eve hours, however, I just dont feel that a well tuned truck or bike should be cause for problems. The hobby is relaxing for me, the truck & the Harley are just toys,& are not daily driven. Just an old "gearhead" trying to enjoy what I love crazyAL
