So you do own a shop. You seem to be confused between a "business loan" and a "personal loan." By owning a business that does car modification, you can get a "business loan" for this mod, yes. Thats what I was wondering. But then you go on to say that people can get loans for fun things in life and it seems you are again referring to a business loan. This is the shady part I was wondering about, because quite simply it is illegal to get a business loan for non-business purposes.

The only Gretchen I have ever known was a guy.

My screen name means turbo b16a. Don't try to outsmart yourself.

Thanks for your help. I can see your humanitarian side is over-whelming, considering all the help you have provided me.

No problem.

I bet your ACT score on reading comprehension was way above average.

I never took the ACT. My LSAT (law school admissions test to spell it out) reading comprehension actually was way above average though, so I'll take that as a complement. Thanks again.

The 35 miles/hour difference comes in from the fact that some states have laws where large trucks (and I'm leaning toward the safe side on assuming that these laws include uhauls that are towing cars) cannot go over 55 or 65 miles/hour. Compare that to the average 85 or 95 miles/hour that we drove, mostly within the flow of traffic, the last three times we made this trip.

85 ok. 95 with kids seems to be somewhat wreckless to me as well the vast majority of law enforcement agencies.

Thanks for your wish of luck; I'm sure it was very sincere and heartfelt, judging by the rest of positive things you had to say. Also, thank you for your advice on how long this engine swap is going to take, because I've never done this before! I own a speed shop and have no idea about engine swaps. I've never ran into a technical or mechanical problem and solved it before. You know, I'm not even sure if I know how to use a ratchet!!! I'm just a really dumb girl with a cool car that a shady loan officer gave me money to dump in it.

No problem. I'm sure we can walk you through most of the problems you will encounter. Although we don't all own shops and have the wonderful ability to get a dx to break down far from our house, so you may have to take our limited knowledge with a grain of salt.

Why don't you take your wonderful attitude and amazing comprehension skills and go back to memorizing the breast sizes of all the import models they interview in Import Tuner Magazine...
</TD></TR></TABLE>

I'll look into that.

actually, i was referring to my customers...again, magnificent proof of your reading comprehension skills.

then my sincerest apologies to that guy.

your reading comprehension skills must be available only a certain number of hours at a time, since you seemed to care about exactly what i was saying when it was directed to you, but not when it was stated in general. for future reference, i will remember to threaten your pimp-factor when trying to get a point across. however, i guess your language usage score must have been sub-par, since you took what i said as something the completes you, instead of something that flatters you. how did you do overall on that test?

i don't think it is possible to be wreckless. get upset now, cuz guess what: WRECKLESS isn't even a word...but you are a law student? our country must be low on public defenders...

you know, i guess i'm not wonderful enough to break down a dx far from my house, either. it was a d16 in an EG...last time i checked, dx's didn't come with d16. if you want to claim that you assumed that i had previously swapped in a d16 into my dx to save face, feel free. once again, we've got public defender quality comprehension! our founding fathers must be proud.

you know, don't worry about it on my account...just keep cruising d.c. in your 4runner, picking up "hoez" that are too ignorant to pick up on your poor language, grammar, and comprehension skills, eventhough i'm sure someday you'll be attorney general.
