Nice. Just picked up a Garmin Nuvi 255w.
Was on sale at London Drugs, and got the one and only one they had. Score!

I bought this one about a month ago, and I LOVE it, probably one of the best car related purchases I've made in a really long time!

quick question SchneiderMan,
is you're avatar Conan?
and as for my purchase, new brakes for my Jeep Liberty
YES!
thought so! When i first saw you're avatar I was hmm... that looks a lot like Conando, I just dont know if thats really him... but now I know!
Since you live in LA, like me have you seen him in studio?
YES COCO!!!111
no but i really want to go and see him!! ive watched since new york!
have you been? i live about 30 minute drive from the studios.

I live in the South Bay area (when im not in school) and I havent been to the studio to see him.. but... god would I love to see him. I also followed him since about ... 5-6 years ago.. and ugh... I remember his final episode on late night, touching really.
I don't actually have a TomTom but the ones I have seen were definitely old and did not have lane depiction like the 930. I have BMW's aged professional navigation system integrated in my M3 which is not very good at all when compared to modern systems.
not really a purchase but I had free tickets to Coldplay's show last friday. and it was the best concert i've ever been to.
Crankshaft position sensor for my 2000 Jeep Cherokee. When bad it causes your car to just die. Pain in the butt to install, its on the drivers side of the bellhousing. Takes 2ft of extensions, then a universal joint attachment to get it off. Getting it on was no fun either.
Car runs now though!
Ugh, had to replace the CPS on my last Cherokee. Definitely not fun, although being lifted 6" made it a little more bearable.
Was it stalling out and then refusing to start when warm? Thats my symptoms and from everything I have read its the CPS. It would just die, as if you turned the ignition off, no sputtering.
Started up fine thought after I put it in, so at least I did it right!
Mines just stock, no mods. I was going to put on an OME lift (2" of so), but then gas went crazy and I decided I didn't want to spend money to get less MPG.

Mine wasn't getting spark, and it ended up not being the CPS, but a dead short in the fuel pump wiring. It took me 6 months of troubleshooting just to find an open ended piece of wiring that was bypassed by the previous owner.
I can understand not wanting to spend money on a lift. I got rid of that Cherokee and bought a Grand Cherokee and lifted it 2" and put it on 30" tires(hardly bigger than stock). It gets better gas mileage(even with the 5.2 v8) and is much more pleasant to drive.
I do miss the Cherokee sometimes, may get another some day.
I really wanted one of those, but they've stopped selling them in Norway. Sucks, because it's almost impossible to get non TN-monitors with proper resolutions nowadays.
I had a 1993 Grand Cherokee. Tranny finally went out at 282,000 miles. Great car!
Just to keep the thread on track, I got this from the marketplace here for my GF. It will be her first mac, a 2.0 CD Macbook Pro.
350 shipped!!!
Just booked flights for our trip to America. Sadly it's still over 10 months away.
Wow that's some planning! I hope you have fun here.
