    paint?

    The reason I have been holding off on a billet grill is those ugly fog light housings. I was hoping a company would make an "upgrade" rather it be billet or something. You can paint them, but paint + plastic = upkeep often. Paint just doesn't stick to plastic well, but may last 2 years before needing repainted. I also thought about cutting them up and giving a little design to them, they are just big, bulky, and hideous.
  3. I'm sure it can, but TRUST me and get the 6 cylinder. It isn't happy pulling the vehicle itself let alone 1500 more pounds.
  4. Yea, reason I vouch to do this for everyone. I am not going to sign any papers till I get these prices though. I am still waiting on them to respond. Holidays probably giving them a little trouble.
  5. I will check them out! My Fusion wipers were awesome, 20K miles on here when traded and were still fine belive it or not. I liked Annco or whatever the other cheapies are, they are better than rain x wipers. They are crappy! DO NOT buy rain x wipers.
  6. We had a lot of rain here these last 2 weeks, and these wiper suck. Not even close to being half ass. Anyone else with this issue? Streaking already.

    Dreamcar

    While traveling for a car audio company, you will see interesting things. Here is one of my dream cars.... Here is the other...
  8. Christmas season + shipping USPS = wait time. We mailed our rent check and took a WEEK to get there. Mailed in the same city!! Worst part of the holidays, reason I ship UPS.
  9. I have a minor set back till I can do mine. Christmas is not being good to me this year haha.
  10. Im with stupid ^^^ hahahaha. It is nice once she gets around 4500+ RPM's. I guess the engine has a valve operation similar to the v-tec hondas. Once it hits over 4500 RPM's you can feel it get into a power band like a 2 stroke. I usually just start slapping back to manual shift and having fun hehe. My main complaint is the crappy seats. I am going to talk with a upholstery company on this though.
  11. Looks like things may get interesting. AWD or RWD maybe hehe. I really wanted a Ford Flex ecoboost, but this looks like fun too haha.
  12. I think the weight of the vehicle along with ESP is a good combination for FWD handling well in snow
  13. I am waiting on these numb skulls to contact me back.
  14. You may not have enough to turn starter. does it make a cliking noise when trying to start?
  15. Pretty sure you have a dead battery. Must have left lights or something on.
  16. Ok guys and gals, I am going to become a dealer for these guys with many accessories for the Journey. They are actually qulaity unlike most on Ebay I was looking at. www.autoxclusive.com Let me know what you like, give me link and part number along with color or finish. Once I get prices I will pass the savings to you guys, I am not making a dime, just helping you guys out because listed prices are not cheap. I have to order $1000+, but along with my order I am sure that is pretty easy. More we order, the better the discount.
  17. Ok, I am waiting on them to get back to me.
  18. I would not suggest the 500/1 JL amps nor the W7. They are both over priced and the slash amps are inefficient and do not take abuse well at all. They are regulated which is awesome with impedence rise and so for, but their amps are not their fine point. The W7's are quality wooers but a waste of money. I would suggest others to save money and get better frequency response in the mobile audio world. A lot of people do not understand this, but music very rarely has tones that dip into the 20hz range. Majority of music is 35hz and up. When you build a woofer to extend down low you give up your daily music ability. Larger diameter suspension, heavier mass, and larger throw is what gives you the lower frequency, but when you try to reproduce the double bass or higher frequency's all above hurts and the woofer struggles. I can help you choose something that is right for you and stealth. We Journey owners have a lot of room under our front seats for stackable or stealth amps. I will be doing this myself. Let me know if you want my help, shoot me an email or PM on yahoo. lowhz01@yahoo.com
  19. You ain't kidding. Doc fee Dealer hold back Dealer incentives (Big volume dealer or chain) Bank I am a manufacturer and know how the world works. You sell more, you get a certain % discount. Invoice is nice to see, but NO dealer pays invoice. NO dealer I have pays dealer price, they always get at least 5% discount. That is a lot on $20,000. Regular dealer is for the companies that buy 2 products a month or if.
  20. Yea, I got invoice then rebates and $800 over on trade in value for my car Also got a no BS rate either. I am pretty sure that the dealership gets a cut of a % when gettin the bank business, so do not let a dealer tell you they are loosing money. So many varibles and ways they work deals and make money. We went 75 months on ours and still got under 6% if that tells you anything We had to sadly due to our situation, but if you can go 60 months, by all means roll with it!
  21. Screw that, interest rates are good right now with abeacon score over 700. We got under 6% easy. If you don't mind driving, I can ask my buddy at this dealership to give you a hand. Shoot me an email if you want and i will help ya get in touch with him. lowhz01@yahoo.com
  22. Haha, I need to wash mine as well. 74 degrees now, so I may do it today then keep an eye on it. I will probably take it to the dealer and tell them to change to ceramic and dust free
