Now I have to buy rims. Do you know anyplace I could get a nice set under 300 bucks?

Here is a good story for the dad... Last night in Dallas, I tried to accelerate around a corner in the rain. One tire slips just slightly before the ESP turned on and managed the turn for me. Now... I wanted the bloody thing to spin out as I was testing the ESP system. ESP 1.... Driver 0.

Haha... that ESP is really amazing. With this little ice storm we had, I kept mine in 2wd, and wasn't havning any issues driving. Curious, to see what it's like, I turned ESP off... The damn thing was slipping and sliding every which way.


Good stuff!
