Some Car Things

First, this weekend I had a flat. It could have ruined the day, but thanks to AAA, all was well. Unfortunately, Discount Tire does not have a replacement in stock and so one will need to be ordered. I’ll be driving on the donut until Wednesday! Yikes!

Second, I got an email from the MVD reminding me that my registration expires on 4/15. Good times. At least it’s not too much for one year of Registration (see image). Interesting that I got an email though. I don’t recall ever setting that feature up. It’s a nice reminder and I’m glad they give me all the information up front without making me sign in to Service Arizona. Time to setup a reminder in Google Calendar so I don’t forget to pay it.

A Car, a Parking Lot and a Douche-bag

about 7 months ago - No comments

Today I was at Lowes doing some shopping for the house. I needed a new thermostat, some light bulbs and garage door clickers (which aren’t compatible with my opener!). When I came out of the store, I noticed that there was something funky about the front of my car. When I got closer, I realized

My New Car

Okay, so I’ve owned this car for about a month now but I finally found the time to take a picture and post about it here on my blog. Here it is! My new 2010 Mazda3 5-Door also known as the Olive Mobile since she has her own space in the back-back now! I love

Why I Hate Speed Cameras

about 1 year ago - No comments

Here’s the main reason why I hate the speed cameras we now have on the freeways here in Arizona. The speed limit on this part of the freeway is 65 MPH. The cameras won’t take your picture until you surpass the 75 MPH mark. Because of these cameras, the max speed that anyone is driving

Fuel Frog – Update

I use Fuel Frog to track my fuel consumption. Not too bad considering my lead foot. Since we’re on the subject of gasoline, I can’t remember the time that I spent just over $20 to fill my take. Wow.

Parking Spot

Thursday I returned from lunch and someone had parked in my spot at work! WTF!? Who does that? It’s clearly lunch break, not 3pm when it’s entirely possible that someone has left for the day. Called security and got them to move it. That’ll teach ‘em.

So, have you seen any of the 2000 smart cars that have been delivered so far driving around town? Here’s how much I would spend on either of the two that I would seriously think about purchasing.

Well, just an FYI, I now own my car. It’s kind of a great feeling. Now… what to do with that extra $275 every month… ;)

Having a car… $$$

Just paid my registration for the next year. $177 – substantially less than last year but still kind of ridiculous! Anyway, just wanted to share that. News from my trip to the UK will be forthcoming. Keep your eyes open for it.

Getting A Battery

about 4 years ago - No comments

So, I’m sitting here at Sears waiting for them to install a new battery in my car. The test that was run on the battery said it didn’t have long to live so I figured I’d get one and be safe. Don’t need the bastard stranding me somewhere. Now, you’re probably wondering, “why didn’t he

Gas

Gas prices are on the rise! It’s getting a bit ridiculous! $2.99 is the current price here in good old Phx, AZ. They say it’ll only go higher and that we may not get any relief until after October! AHHHH! I’ll just have to suck it up and get by. Anyway, it’s now September and
