Hey Rio...you seem like a nice kid, and I am very happy for you that you have a job now...good on ya brother! Now then, seeing as you will have some free time because you no longe have TWO jobs, could you please take a little time to learn punctuation and grammar? Pretty please with a head gasket on top?

leave him alone... at least he has a job, and there's no shame in an honest day's work, he could just as easily be doing something shady to make money.
agree on the spelling and what have you though, but just reading the front page of the newspaper or cnn.com or something every day can solve that, which i suggest you do, rio.

Yah, you guys seem to pick on the kid alot. Granted, the posts make my eyes water and my brain bleed, but he isn't being an ***, he just has some difficulty with spelling and grammar. He's actually owned up to this in another thread before sooo...

Rio, if you like something (like cars) a lot, read about them. Grab a shop manual or something like that, or cruise through Car & Driver. Reading is really very important. I've felt the difference myself when I stopped reading a few years ago, now I am trying to read more often.

Word, big bird.

Never poked fun at his job, it's work and it's great that he does it. You MUST always try to better yourself Rio...everyday. Look at the way some of us on here type, for example. We know there are shortcuts to words that are "acceptable" on the net but we choose to take the time to write out the full words, put together proper sentence structure and mind our spelling.

Give it a shot!

Oh and "welcome back"

I donno Rio, it depends on what lights you are thinking of getting. I need new lights too! They are so dirty that the already horrible light output is even worse! -_-

The 6 prong adapter is just the tailight socket adapter, so if you need it, its not very hard to come across.
