Nan-Nan's fault, but there are definitely advantages to using LJ.
-No ads! =)
-People don't need to register to post comments
-LJ sounds less idiotic than Xanga |

| When asked to describe Douglas Feith, the former Undersecretary of Defense at the Pentagon, Colonel Larry Wilkerson (Colin Powell's Chief of Staff) said, "Seldom in my life have I met a dumber man." General Tommy Franks, Commander-in-Chief of CENTCOM, seemed to agree with Wilkerson and called Feith "the f***ing stupidest guy on the face of the earth."
Wow.

| 45,000 mile service price comparisons
* = at my request
Turner Nissan (6.4 miles away) - $153 (Also had a $15 off coupon) = $138
-No tire rotation/balancing*
-No in-cabin air filter*
-No loaner car
-No vacuuming of the interior
Infiniti of Elk Grove (18.6 miles away) - $396
I'm not sure how much the rotation/balancing costs, but the air filter changing is usually around $100 (BtW, change it yourself; it takes less than 10 minutes, and the part costs about $30) at the Infiniti dealership. Even then, $296 is more than double the cost of the Nissan dealer. Rotation/balancing shouldn't cost more than $50, and I rented a car for $32. That would be $214, which is still $76 more (Over 50% more expensive!@?#) than the Nissan dealer. Plus the Infiniti dealer is three times as far.
Needless to say, I went to Turner Nissan.
