You raved about the rain performance of your previous MXV4's. :whistles:

Yeah, I caught the licence plate issues in season 1. B) Good catch on the Jeep! You never noticed the Infiniti QX4 where the Toyota Sequoia should have been driving down the side street? That seen was like 6 - 8 seconds long.......I had to be sure so played it in slow motion a couple times & it's an Infiniti. ;)

That is really tacky.!!!!!!!!!!! Agreed! Good lord man!

How far through are you 92 & what is the cost to this point? :)

Where did you purchase them? I've only needed a re-balance once when I got my Michelin Pilot Sport A/S tires for my 2001 Maxima way back.

I have to watch them again too just because ;) Let me know if you see any othere. :)

Bridgestone's with a balancing issue huh? Shocker lol ;) Just buggin bud. :whistles:

That thought did cross my mind Steve.....that's maybe what I will end up doing. I'll look into this Thanks. B)

Ok, I was on the ground after I saw these & had to share.... http://video.google.com.au/videoplay?docid...51&hl=en-AU The guy on the bike is just priceless!!!!! Try this one.....The Japanese have a good sense of humor lmao. http://video.google.com.au/videoplay?docid...nk&hl=en-AU

I was pretty shocked by the findings to needless to say lol.

The two I found were.... Episode 2 - Jack steals a Green (looks like an '86) Olds Cutlass Supreme......the car had a cell phone in it.....when he looked at the keypad, it had a full charge......a very short time later he glanced at it again, it was down to only 1 bar on the charge. ;) Episode 4 - (And I'm very suprised at this blunder!) When Ahmed takes his neighbors hostage.....he sends the father out to pick up a package.....and eventually let's the wife go. The wife get's in a Toyota Sequoia & she drives away. After her short drive she pulls over on a side street to call the father to let him know she has been released.....she is driving an Infiniti QX4 SUV! They panel back again & she is back in the Sequoia! B) Anybody else notice anything?

I'll take the sport model myself. :)

lmao! 92lex.....that's one of the BEST questions I have seen on any forum (are you sitting down?). I was a car jockey years ago at several dealers (just wanted to be around cars all the time). When I worked at the Dodge/Chrysler dealer.....I was bud's with the parts guy & we did just that (slow close to X-mas & the boss was on holidays)....pieced together a 1995 Dodge Spirit sedan together piece by piece at retail $$$.....I mean every little thing you could possibly thing of. This is in Canadian funds......but after like 3+ hours we were not even 2/3rds done.....I kid you not....................................................$148,000 at that point!!!! :o It would have been well over $200,000 by the time we were done! I am terrified to even imagine what it would cost to do that to a Lexus!

Thanks for the info RX....yup....I usually always replace the entire wiper blade assembly...not the refills. :( I know there are decent blades out there for a reasonable $.......just have to find em. The PIAA assembly blades are $$

Anybody catch any blunders or mistakes made thus far from the first 4 episodes? I've found 2 & one of them is car related lol. :whistles:

Safe drive Steve......give us your impressions of how the tires performed when you return. B)

Update: Well I've had the RainX 'Weather Beater' blades on for a little over 3 months & they are done! :chairshot: No impressed at all.....and we've had less than a handful of snowfalls here (I've cleaned them regularly....washer fluid with a rag works for me). When I bought my Forester last May.....I had the dealer install brand new OE blades (not just the refills) and they only lasted me until Oct....so they were not the greatest either. One neat feature I do like is that Subi's are equipped with heated wiper elements at the bottom of the windshield (sort of like a rear defroster) & worked very well in the past week or so when we got nailed with snow & freezing rain. Anyone heard of a company called Pylon? Apparently they make wipers under the Michelin name now. If anyone has any feedback on these.....please share. Some more info here... http://www.pylonhq.com/products.htm I'm also considering giving Bosch Micro Edge Excel's a try (on sale currently at my local auto parts store) .........thoughts?

I guess no chance yet to test them in the snow eh Steve?

Not a bad choice Steve....& pretty decent mileage out of your MXV4's too. Enjoy! B)

I've been around lol....just not as much here as I would have liked.....I'll check it out. ;)

Here you go 92Lex ;) That should explain things. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/24_%28TV_series%29 For the 24 'die hards' The first 4 episodes of season 6 have just become available at your local video store.....with a twist.......if you can't wait until next week on that disc there is the first 12 minutes (1st act as they call it) of episode 5...and it's awesome!!! :D

Steve, you needed new tires?

I personally do like the new Camry & there is a reason they sell well over 400,000 of them in the U.S. every year.....just not a fan personally of the first year issue of a new generation. From what I have heard (one of my co-workers ownes a V6 SE model & have talked with a few others) they are having some teething problems because of the first year....everything from electrical to fit & finish to the 6 speed automatic (my co-workers car). Just my 2 cents.

Well considering the event in question......I can pretty much speak for every 24 fan......that's a good thing! lol ;)

Anybody know what that theme song is?
