    stick shift vs. paddle shifters

    I've always driven AT. At 45,000 miles a year, it seems like it makes more sense to me. My inner car guy loathes the fact though. Even so--and even with the mechanical knowledge of what's physically happening in there--I'm not too proficient with a stick. My only real issues are leaving out...

    Styrofoam peanuts

    Just got my order today! No peanuts, but paper...and I didn't request it. Maybe it's matter of what's in the box? Just order more stuff, then you won't need anything to fill up the space :D

    Lessons Learned

    So I'm getting the hang of detailing my car the proper way after years of tunnel washes and dirty towels. As I get better though, I do notice that I miss things here and there. It's just a function of learning I guess, but what are things you've picked up over the years detailing cars...

    Regis Philbin's Last Week~

    I've always watched and loved his show growing up because it meant I was off from school if I was watching it. Then the Price Is Right was on next! He is a Notre Dame fan too, so he's always been good by me. I always yell at the TD Bank commercials that make him look like this feeble old...

    Styling and detailing question

    I belong to one for my Accord, and believe me when I say I understand. There's a lot of good informaiton provided by the factory and the moderators there, but unless I need a drop kit, new rims, something tinted or 10 million lumen fog lights, asking questions can be an excercise in futility...

    Reputable Detailer around Philly/Delaware?

    I'm sure there are a few--and I'm sorry to those I don't know/mention--but I've seen an Oakes car in person out and about and it looked great. It was a blue Lancer, IIRC.

    found some very nice drying towels at wal-mart!

    I just found a couple of nice microfibers in Office Depot today. 80/20 blend, rolled edges, 8 for $4. I can't seem to find them on the site, but they were all the way in the back (of this particular store) with office supplies, i.e. cleaning, coffee filters, etc.
