When my ship entered the Chesapeake Bay to Baltimore on the final day, it was crawling at around 8mph. I think I could have ran faster to the dock than the ship.

Say, don't you wish they offered an airlift option, at extra charge ? I'd joyously pay $1000 more to get the damn thing here in 14 hours. To hell with the tracking and webcams and shit. Just fly the damn thing Frankfurt am Main to LAX and get it over with !!!

I learned most of what I know about cars from http://auto.howstuffworks.com. It is a fabulous website that explains stuff very well so even non-engineers can follow and understand. They have images and Flash animations to illustrate concepts. One of my fav articles on that site - how car engines work: http://auto.howstuffworks.com/engine.htm/printable Just in case you're interested ...

Yup, Eng Exp is great ! I love his car reviews the most - he is by far, the best car reviewer on YouTube IMHO.

Yes. Already ordered a umbilical cord for future use. Worst case scenario, I've got AAA and will have the M235i flatbed to the local BMW dealership.

That guy does a really good YouTube channel for car stuff. None of the fanboy fluff or parroting myths.

2Addicted
I made a pact about a month ago - I'm gonna stay away from 2addicts and bmwusa and YouTube reviews for a month, and I've been making such pacts every day since ...
I might as well just keep tracking this thing obsessively ... it's what relieves my anxiety best. Hey hey ... San Diego in 5 days !!!
