Hi. I have owned Honda''s for 20 years (not counting the 150 Dream I bought in 1966, blue with a red seat). I just bought a 2003 Accord LX from a good buddy. It was 20,000 miles and actually still has the new car smell, this dude really babied it. I want to take care of it so I thought I''d check in here. I have a 66 Chevy Truck that I have rebuilt and the Chevy Talk site has been great. I hope to find the same here.

Thanks. I had situations on CT where I got phone support for electrical problems and even free parts. Look to me like this outfit is well organized and responsive! Really nice.

Check for dead hookers in the trunk!!!  Also, what is the significance of this thread title?  We try to keep them meaningful.  Thanks in advance for future threads.

I can''t tell if you''re being sarcastic Aaron, isn''t LPG liquid propane gas? And where are you getting LPG from anyways?


Hahaha, you''ll enjoy this and I think this was the intended meaning.

quote:

ORIGINAL: Urban Dictionary
F.N.G.

F******'' New Guy. Term still used in the western English-speaking armed forces of the west (primarily United States, Australia, United Kingdom and Canada) to denote a new soldier fresh off his basic training. It means they have the basics but no real experience, so they do everything by the book (which is not always best) and they are overly keen and always shut down on long excersices.
Some people stay F.N.G.''s for years, however most switched-on soldiers lose the status within a year.

Well, the Urban Dictionary has is part right. In the Nam we had a "rotation" system that meant many troopers arrived as replacements from "the repo-depot". Upon arrival you were an FNG until you got salty. A a similar term was cherry. I figured those who knew would know and those who wouldn''t . . . xin loi!

Raven was my great little cocker spaniel and 316 is a crappy road I used to have to commute on to the ATL!

I was wondering if WheelBrokerAng meant Army National Guard? From the cradle of coaches!
