 Hah! =)   Well, we reserve a special finger for those people who insist on

Well, if I'm lucky, I might be able to get my hands on a v-Chrysler for free.
A friend of mine is debating removing the AC from his Chrysler for the sake
of a quicker quarter mile...  Hmmm... I think I'll try to help decide in
