Seeing as I can only spin one of them, I'm going to save the embarrassment, and not post something like that on Youtube. Besides, the previous owner seemed to have a good time doing that as is.

OH! I got a flat last Saturday, so guess who's been rollin' on a spare? This guy! That tire has no grip whatsoever. It has way more tread than the other tires, but it starts howling at any sign of "Spirited driving" while the others shrug it off. Not too mention it's taller than the others, lol! I just saw it as no sense in fixing the tire because I'm buying new ones soon, anyways.

who the hell orders a Xtreme with the "one wheel peel" option?

i sure hope you got the flat on the front. or you were smart enough to rotate the spare to the front anyways.

I didn't think they came with a G80 option, which is stupid. It's supposed to be "Sporty". It does handle pretty well, but damn it would launch better with a locker. I might put one in if I decide to keep it. I'm actually considering selling it because the gas is killing me, and I'll be making an 80 mile round trip when I get into college. I may just fix it up, and get more than what I payed for it.
Oh! Yes, I got a flat on the front passenger side.

^^^ why not just pick up a little 500 2 wheeler, 'n keep the Xtreme for a nice cruiser?

you can fit more chicks in the back of that Blazer, than you can on a bike.

Haha! If I can afford a bike next year, I might do that. It's certainly not a bad idea.

Where are you going to college at? And if you're looking for something that gets good mpg and still brings in the chicks, my buddy just got a 2001 Galant (same car my gf has) and for whatever reason he keeps picking up the ladies. Mysteries of the universe I guess haha.

Haha! I don't think the driver of said car would approve of that. Nor would the police. It sounds fun, though!
I don't know. I love the truck, but if it comes down to it, I've gotta do what I gotta do. I am still stuck on getting a bike as a second vehicle. The one I have now isn't street legal, or safe to ride. lol

Seminole State, but I am still taking care of a couple High School classes, so I'm probably going to do some dual enrolling at Brevard Community College until my classes are wrapped up.

Galants are okay. I'd rather have something not Mitsubishi. lol

Haha I feel the same way about Galants. I've just been flabberghasted by how much tail my buddy's been getting since he's gotten the car. I'm seriously puzzled by it. 100% stock too lol.

Good luck with the dual enrollment, I did that for a semester. Tip: make sure you write down which day you're at which school haha. I messed up 4 or 5 weeks into the semester and showed up at HCC on a day when I was supposed to be at USF!
