Seriously though.

I didn't start the thread. Nor am I getting my posts quoted.

Whatever.
When my wife says it, it's usually not a "good term" at all.  It is similar to "Fine" and "Do what you want." and
"I don't care." and phrases of similar ilk.
Most of us know how to interpret what women say, usually.

Would you rather we post to the 'welcome Nebraska to the Big10' thread. I thin FF managed to keep that on the 1st page for four years

On another topic, I thought I'd share my one week experience renting a new Mustang convertible in LA.  The interesting feature was that it was the 4 cylinder engine of course, the V6 has been dropped by Ford, and the 10 speed transmission, which was codeveloped with GM and used in a number of applications.  The engine was uninspired in my book, adequate, but not enthusiastic, and of course it could not make V-8 noises.  The noise it did make was boring.  The transmission was fine for normal driving but it was pretty easy to confuse and had hesitant shifts in the mountains.  Even the paddle shifting was slow at times.  I did not at first realize it was the 10 speed driving out of SF in stop and go traffic.  So, for normal driving it was OK, but an 8 speed or even 6 speed would have been OK also I think.

The drop top is nice to have in CA  We drove across the GG Bridge with top down and that was pretty neat.  We drove around Lake Tahoe that way and it is nice.  I had rented something else but Enterprise didn't have any so she was offering me an upgrade like a minivan, and I said "How about the Mustang over there?" and she bit for a modest upcharge.

I didn't want a minivan for me and the wife.

Renting is a LOT cheaper in LV.

Well if you were in LA you're tied up in traffic so the 6 or 8 banger wouldn't help anyway

The V8 sounds a lot better of course, and this was in SF, on a Friday, and we were headed northeast across the bay.

Gas prices were lower than I expected on the whole.  We found a Costco in Fairfield that was $3.40 I think for regular.

I saw $3.20 here in midtown at a Shell, but just filled up at Costco for $2.95 for premium.

We always walk out of that store with more than we figured.  Fortunately, I bought stock in COST a while back.

It's not really that hard.  Assume they mean the worst and you'll be close.

Worry if they say it smiling.

Worry more if they aren't.

Of course the wife just brought me two nice samiches in my Man Cave so I should shut up.

Costco is worth the membership for gas alone. Shell premium was $3.65 and Costco was at $2.85 this weekend. Directly across the street from each other. I always figure Costco saves me $.50/gallon on premium so each fill up save me about $10.
