I've installed dozens of remote starters on customers yachts. They will call from the car on the way to the marina, and let the boat run (sometimes for hours) to get the air conditioning running.

I show up on my zx to do these installs!

It's either the customer or me... One of us is really F'd up.

Ever paid $3,000.00 to fill your tank? For a weekend cruise? In Axy's country that 3g's buys alot of shiny things, and beads... No wonder he's pissed!

I'll laugh at whatever I want.

What do you know about being pulled over in the US? Our police officers have better things to worry about than you "wasting" <25 cents worth of gasoline. That's why it's a joke. Once again I laugh at the concept of getting a ticket for idling my scooter in my driveway. Hahaa :D

Indeed. They do have better things to worry about: http://www.dumblaws.com/laws/united-states/alabama

Actually, never had slaves or segregation here, so there was no need to lure them with shiny beads. Not a part of our cultural heritage, sorry.

"Actually, never had slaves or segregation here"

WHAT? How did your country get anything done? Tall buildings, Roads, Crops!    Oh yeah! my bad...Tree dweller.

Don't mess w/ me on this one. I'll set my little Irish house monkey loose... Mean lil' bastards the Irish! Remind me of N..ever mind.
I'm sorry Axy. I hope you don't take offense. I know thumbs are new to you so I'm not really too worried.

Ok for real. Axy is likely one of the most intelligent "gentleman" I've come across on ANY forum. Just likes the opposite point of view is all. RESPECT!
 10 pages on a warm up. WTF is next? Where did the thread poster go?

The man was in no shape to drive, so he wisely left his scooter parked and walked home. As he was walking unsteadily along, he was stopped by a policeman.

"What are you doing out here at 2 A.M.?" said the officer.

"I'm going to a lecture." the man said.

"And who is going to give a lecture at this hour?" the cop asked.

"My wife." said the man.
