I'll be joining you in the "I Feel Young Again" category as I'll be 40 this year myself.

But then again, I think a lot of that has to do with the cars we choose to drive and more importantly HOW we drive them.......:evilgrin:

Agreed!

My grandparents have quite a "collection" of cars including Corvette's, Camaro's, Trans-Am's and other classic and late model sports cars and they are in their 70's. They both have a heavy foot if you know what I mean :rofl:

Maybe we should start a thread like some of the other sites and post a photo of ourselves so we can put a screen name with a face.

Wow...I just turned 40 and thought I was getting old.....I feel young again!

Damn.....my kid is older than you. (born in '68)

You, bpd and Rick are younguns . but like someone said, "you're as old as you feel"......
Most days I feel 30....others - 90.:)

One thing's for sure: the SHO will help keep one young(er).;)


Good idea Rick:

I hope we can make the necessary transfers so that we don't jack Bob's thread any more than is has been...
Apologies Bob.

You can jack the thread anytime you want. Besides, it's really not revelant anymore since the tuner is on it's way. Being on a fixed income just makes you stop and think on what your spending the little you have...:evilgrin:

Agreed. I know the feeling.;)

By the sound of it, the tune won't affect mileage adversely and may even bump it slightly. Let's hope so.

Amen, I'm still having trouble getting comfortable with a fixed income...but the Livernois tune was something I was really glad that I got...wish I would have done it sooner.

Talk about quick service, ordered the tuner on the 17th and it's in hand today. Just sent Rick the info needed, so should have tunes and 1 installed by the weekend.

Well guys, we can put this thread to rest. I'm rather please with the trip mileage I was able to get on my trip to DC and back today. After fill up and rest when tune was installed Wednesday, and playing around the first 50 miles, I started the trip with the computer showing 17.6 mpg. After the r/t, the computer was showing 23.5, which is really better than what I was getting before the tune. I would expect even better mileage to come as I won't be playing around like I have been before trips. It will be a fill up and go, not fill up, play around, and then go.

A good car is now a much better car!

Thanks Rick and to all guys at Livernois!

Bob

It's great to see that Livernois (Rick and Dan) have done such a great job with the new SHO that their reputation continues to grow and that they are really the best support around for our cars. Thanks Rick and Dan and everyone involved with doing the great work for us!
