1. I can remember doing the same thing when I was a newbie 3 yrs. ago, until someone courteously and politely pointed out to me my error.
2. I was thankful for his forgiving attitude and patience.

3. Thankfully you number your points.

A. Ha! It won't be the first time others have poked fun at my OCD method of posting; I get it frequently on the site where I mostly visit.
B. I wish I was normal; it is a long-term goal, but at 60 I'm afraid I'm a hopeless case.

not that I would ever valet my CR, but I did have to valet my si and both cars have flash pro, valet reported to me when I picked up my Si that something might be wrong because it wouldn't go above 3k rpm. I of course asked him why he was even trying, lol. I got back in my car and reflased back to my normal tune and took off and went up to 8400 before shifting. gotta love the valet tune from hondata when you have to use it. Both my CR and Si have it so you can't ever go above 3k.
that's awesome^^ i bet he was disappointed
this is great!

I just got my S and brought it to work. After driving it back from lunch a guy asks "man that things sounds fast. You got a flowmaster on that thing?" I said "no stock exhaust." All thats on it is a CAI. He didnt believe me and kept looking at the rear pipes saying it has to be "flows" or "straight piped" Then he finially noticed the honda badge and goes its a "honda????!!! no way! it doesnt sound like those fart cans I hear on the street!"

I have had my 09 Rio yellow for one year now. When I called my insurance company and told them about the car, they asked the usual questions: vin #, milage, price, etc. Then they asked how many cylinders it had. I replied "just four". The insurance rep said "Oh its not a sports car, you will get a great rate!" ($60/month)

What kind of terrible insurance company has to ask how many cylinders your car has?

Didn't have jacks (just ramps) so i took my car to a shop to get the trans fluid changed. It went like this:

Tech: Is is automatic or manual?
Me: They only made it in manual
Tech: Well the computer shows automatic was an option
Me: It's manual

Wasn't worth fighting with him over it. He also questioned me on the capacity because the computer said something different than the owners manual. I stood with him under the car and watched him change it. Haha

Personally, I would've brought it elsewhere..

He had to "rely on a computer" lol.
