You are not helping the 06's cause...

Receipts honey bun.

I say got '06. If it doesnt work out you can always haul ass on it to his place. Stop a few blocks away. Open up the tank cap, stick a shirt down it, light it, then haul ass and jump off at a high rate of speed, letting it crash into his place.

I crack myself up sometimes.

Doesn't matter. I do my own work, but it is all documented in the back of my owner's manual (when, what, and who). I could probably even scrounge up some old receipts of oil and filter I bought.
