Ice Cream Man!

Post by John Coffey »

I propose that Bill's Prius has to sound like an ice cream truck when it goes down the road...

Funny you all should mention that. I almost got hit by a freakin Prius in electric mode in the parking lot of a supermarket this morning. Old man who didn't bother to look over his shoulder. Luckily I'm almost as big as a Prius, so I whacked his rear window. Hope I didn't give him a heart attack.

Oversteer is better than understeer because you don't see the tree you're hitting.

Sa-Weeeet!

SM2, here I come.

Can you imagine how much fun you could have F'n w/people's minds @ Nationals!?

Would be worth the price just to have Andy convince someone to throw paper ("You're done!") and then see their face @ Impound - Patch, can we make this happen in the next 2 weeks?

Bill, I have a spare Odyssey battery sitting in the garage right now. I think we can have that sucker installed in about 15 minutes with zip ties and a few feet of wire... and keep it there just long enough to drive into grid and get a good laugh!

Good idea, but bad execution: it sounds like when my dog farts

A 10" sub woofer will make it more convincing sounding. Hook it all together in the trunk with a switch up front and make it so all the weight can be taken out later. Like at impound! :lol:
