I think you did! I'm graduating hopefully Spring 2016 if my advisor doesn't mess me up on that...

And yup! Forgot I didn't have a location listed. I've got a night pass and park by ETB quite a bit in lot 51 after 5 to get to the CVLB. Other than that I park in north campus garage when I'm running late. I should start looking for your truck around town.

That's cool! I'm a year behind ya then, but who knows if I'll actually graduate in 2017. My major sucks haha.

What's ETB? But hmm I wonder if I've seen it. I'm living further off campus next year, so I'll be driving around a lot more than I do now cause I live behind Northgate and don't really have to drive anywhere.

The federals were on his truck when he bought it, they were almost brand new. We don't know what happened, 3 months after buying the truck both the driver front and rear tire developed a big bulge in the tread that was so bad that you couldn't drive the truck. That's why he bought the Atturos, it was cheap and we needed tires. We think that maybe the dealer put on a bad set federals on the truck..

Emerging Technologies Building. I live kinda far out by the trails but I love it. You've probably seen me up around Northgate because I drop people off up there and helped a friend break into her car up there when she locked her keys and ID in the car. Haha

Ouch that's rough. Talk about unexpected expenses. I've got a friend that ran federal couragias for a while and he hated them. Said they were some of the worst tires he's ever had.

I don't have a depth gauge to measure the tread. The tire measures right at 34 mounted on his truck. The Federals weren't bad for the short time we had them. Did everything we wanted it to. You could tell they wouldn't last long buy looking at the thread design. I just think we just got a bad set with them

Oh okay, hadn't heard that one yet. I wouldn't mind living that far, out away from everything. Nice, on breaking into her car. I'm usually the one friends ask about car stuff and then they want to know why I can't fix something that's actually a huge problem haha.

tareed94

Okay awesome! Thanks for measuring for me! That'd be like perfect on just a level. And maybe so. I'm not sure what my friend didn't like about them I just know he said they were awful.


It's nice. You avoid all the traffic of campus. Thanks. Haha. It's a lot harder than it looks. I am too. One of my friends asked me the other day if I could figure out her 2008 Jetta. When she would turn it off and remove the key all four windows would roll all the way down. Haha. I was like uhhhhhh... not sure where to even begin on that one. I did manage to temporary fix it and haven't heard that it's still messed up so guess I fixed it. Haha

I work at a dealership and we get the keys locked in cars pretty frequently, but I'd only know how to break into one with a Jimmy kit!

I'd be like "It's German? I dunno" I've had to mess with a lot of windows rolling down after turning the ignition off, and usually rolling them up 98% of the way, but not completely, fixes it. I guess the sensors detecting full roll up (if those exist) and/or the safety features keeping them from closing on fingers has something to do with it? But I've never seen one do it to all 4 windows, just one at a time.

tareed94

Haha. That would've been so much easier. Never used one but still easier. Finally got it with a coat hanger around the lock pin on the interior of the car. Couldn't get the lever in the door. Lol

And hers I think is in the window switch. She kept the window lock on so that her little brothers couldn't roll down the windows. Turned that off and it stopped the issue. I should've used the German excuse! Haha

KMAC0694

That's too much effort haha. I would've just made her call AAA. Hell, all my coat hangers are fancy plastic now, so I wouldn't even have access to a metal one haha

I had to leave my window lock on for a long time cause my master switch was messed up and the rear windows kinda had a mind of their own on whether or not they were gonna go back up haha
