Yesterday I got in a pretty bad crash with the T-Bird. I’ll let the pictures do the talking:

Also, I put the Crown Vic up for sale on eBay. Unfortunately with the T-Bird possibly totaled, I might have to pull the auction and fix it up to be my daily driver once more.

We’ll see.

Holy crap does a subwoofer ever make a difference. This one can be blamed on a nice chain of events.
- Roommate gets me listening to Sirius 20 “Octane”
- DMX - “Party Up” comes on, I realize how pitiful the bass in my car sounds
- Roommate’s ex-GF comes to town, somehow gets him to buy new front speakers
- While we’re installing said speakers, I decide to figure out why my rear speakers don’t work
- I rewire the speakers to run from the head unit instead of through the amp the previous owner left in the car, and now I have a spare amp to mess with.
- I drive to Car Stereo One, who just happen to be having a sale on subwoofers, so I end up buying a 12″ sub instead of the 8 or 10 inch models I was looking at.
- By 3 AM, we have the thing ghetto-wired and powering on. We burn bass test discs and lap the block.
- I have very limited hearing now.
