Yeah that storm sucked bad, I was installing my cold air intake when it rolled through and blew the power out in the shop I was working in. I was cussing up a storm because my car was half apart, front bumper off, battery out, washer bottle half bolted up, and intake in place. So all I could do was hope the power would come back on and keep working using the pen flashlight.....lol. The shop I was at has always flooded around it and I was watching jeeps drive by with water up to the bumpers and waves rolling up to the bay doors. I was pissed, told my friend we were going to have to push the car into the middle of the street and then start it for me to leave. Luckily the power came back on half-hour later and the rain slowed up enough for the water to drain as I finished putting it back together.

Sorry to hear about your neon, hope it all works out for the best. I can only imagine the words coming out of your mouth.

Im not quite that dumb. I know where all the higher level roads are in Norfolk so I can get around. Although I thought that I was fucked once but I managed, and my car still runs.
