After 10 years of driving and enjoying the finished car..I wanted to ''re-do'' some things and basically having it out with my wife about "whats wrong with the way it is right now..why do you want to change it?" Its taken me 3 years to save and sell old stuff to buy my new LS3 for it..I think waiting is the worst part for me.

Funny..when my wife wants a new hand bag for $2200.00 or a $1200.00 pair of ''there just adorable'' shoes..I never tell her ''whats wrong with the ones you got on..why would you need a new pair" lol ..Maybe Iam a poor husband,or maybe you guys know what Iam talking about.

If you do have to ask.....ask for forgiveness AFTER the purchase. Not permission before.

I can't stand wiring. My hands are to big and the wires and places they go are to small.

I almost hate waiting as much. I got the Patience iof a 3 year old. I want it NOW damnit! LOL!
