It's a device connected to the engine of a car that will shift gears on it's own. Some find it useful, others find it annoying and feel it takes away the car driver connection.

Yea I feel like a hipocrit. But I needed something quick and easy to sell, so this is what I ended up with.

Shifting on its own? Perhaps it's possessed with an evil spirit.

I kid, I kid. Congrats again on the new toy, it's very nice.

You might learn to enjoy the capabilities of an AWD car. Granted the BMW x-drive system is not as good as the Suby or Audi system, but it is still really fun to see how the car can "pull" itself out of some sticky situations.

Did you figure out how to hook up procede yet?

Oh boy. I've been asked to shoot a wedding this weekend. Not usually my thing, although I've shot a bunch for friends and family. A couple at our church had their photog back out on them yesterday, the wedding is Saturday. This should be interesting! I've been paid for photography before, but never a wedding - always tried to stay far, far away from that!

Park2670 · 05-28-2009, 11:38 PM

wow good luck with that Jason!

+1 good luck!

It's better than the officiator backing out though. I used to cater and I did a wedding once where the priest never showed for the ceremony. The poor bride was in tears and luckily we were able to track down a judge who came over an performed the ceremony.

It's true - I was glad to have the Xi in some of last December's worst snow days! Cruising up around 8th south while others were sliding down in 8" of fresh snow kicked ass!

Das M · 05-29-2009, 12:53 AM
