AutosRe: 2000 Model Mercedes Benz C200 For Sale @ 1 Million Naira by fotodaddy: 9:11am On Jun 20, 2008
nkc, this is not even the elegance model. I sold my 1 year "naija" used elegance model for 900K late last year.

This car for 1.4 is EXTREMELY overpriced. The real price for this car is 500K. And if your ready, I have a cheque waiting but you have to deliver it to my country home in my village cool cool

Take it or leave it!!

Car TalkRe: How Important Is Car Mileage To You? by fotodaddy: 9:41pm On Jun 19, 2008
Meanwhile, to the original question;

While I agree with the general gist from siena, there are certain things that were not mention; mechanicals all have a life span. A bearing is rated at so many turns. A ball joint can take so many turns.

In the absence of a physical inspection, your best bet is to go with [b]verified [/b]mileage. However, the year should also be considered and then you can have a figure. I have seen taxis in germany in which a 2 to 3 year old car has a mileage of 150,000km. This is surely not highway miles. Quite a lot of stop and starts, I'm sure.

On physical inspection, you can acertain if the miles were from the highway or the "low"way. Dead give aways are a worn down brake pedal, Shabby drivers seat and loose ignition/key combo.

Over to you cool

Sienna,

I learnt that driving with ac on and your glass down uses less fuel than winding up fully. Two same type of SUV with equal fuel and travelled equal distance at equal speed. SUV A with glass down and SUV B with glass fully up.

Result: When SUV B ran out of gas (fuel), SUV A went on and covered extra 15 miles before running out of fuel.

Courtesy:Adam Savage, Jamie Hyneman and the rest of the crew of MythBusters on Discovery Channel

Anyone with equal experience?
I watched the same show. But you have misinterpreted the results. The correct were actually:

CASE 1; Windows down no AC gave the worst mileage
CASE 2; Windows up no AC same consumption as CASE 3 which was windows up with AC on

The reason was that at the test speed, the windows down created more turbulence and hence worse consumption.
Also at those speeds, the load of the AC compressor is more or less negligible hence no difference in consumption, but since the windows were up, there was less turbulence so less drag which gives lower consumption figures.

God is not asking you for your house rent as a tithe,what he demands is just 10% of your income or profit.
There is no way that your house rent would be equal to your tithe. Let us learn to trust God and not lean
on our own understanding.Don't forget what i said before"God is Faithful".He will not allow His own to suffer.
SO you are now God's mouth piece abi?? shocked shocked Abi you don turn to Holy Spirit!!! angry

@javarules
I agree with you there is a lot of blessings associated with giving. nd i believe God would bless you as you continue to give. But as far as the issue of tithing is concerned, it as no place in christianity and that is why Jesus never preached it, even the apostles that spread christianity in the new testament never preached. It is a mordern day doctrine that is being presented as the word of God through the Manipulation of Malachi 3:10 . I am not saying you shouldn't give to the church what i am saying is that churches that preach tithing are deceiving their members and it is very wrong for a church to engage in deception. Preaching tithes = obtaining by false pretence=419
TOLD THEM BRO cheesy

But anyway, na so mugu dey do!!! "Na fantastic deal!!! Na fantastic Deal" dem go they talk till their eye open and dem don loose everything. grin grin
Car TalkRe: Traffic Violations In Lagos State Attract Ridiculous Fines by fotodaddy: 1:20pm On Jun 18, 2008
jintujinta:
It is laudable to have a law to check the excesses of the lagos drivers but it it also expedient to make such laws realistic. When setting goals, there is a need to make them challenging but achievable. I think same applies to laws or rules. Am afraid this law is not achievable.
ol boy, you are missing the point. The aim of the fine is not for people to pay it na!!! This is not revenue generation na!!! huh huh

The aim is for it to act as a deterent!!! So if you know that the concequencies are so severe, then perhaps that will make you think twice about breaking the law!!!
Christianity EtcRe: Can You Suspend Tithing To Pay Off Your Debts? by fotodaddy: 10:56am On Jun 18, 2008
Look at them!! So una dey give God your tithe abi and your brother beside you for church never chop!!! shocked shocked

Who has seen God!!!

Try to know your God people!! Everyone to his own. Too much book and no Spirit. Just like the "law" men of old.

Father Help Us huh huh huh

Please Bible scholars, Christ gave us a new law in the new testament. Who among you don fulfill that law as e concern your brothers and sisters. Na so una go dey form clique for church dey do big boy and big girl. SHAME on una!! Dey pay tithe na. Make your paster give you award sef!! Gods ways are higher than yours!!!

And your motives will find you our!!! cool

but hold on!! Let Frozen define Large. And meanwhile who go go market wan price something wey e no see.

Frozen, for you to thaw out, you need to give some more details. And I mean VISUAL. Men tend to be more interested in what they see than women (who are interested in what they hear) so over to you!! Do something.

Check out the auto section for details on how to make yourself very marketable, I am sure a front view, rear view, side view, view of the engine and the carfax report will go along way. That way interested parties go know weather you done dey involved in accident before or you be "chassis" etc. grin grin

AutosRe: Thinking Of Getting A Bike? Some Info For You: (WARNING: VIVID IMAGES) by fotodaddy(op): 10:05am On Jun 18, 2008
proo212:
I will suggest that if one wants to get a bike or learn to ride, do it when you are older. I learnt to ride 5 years ago and it's a great feeling on the open road. Yes there is no protection if you are hit by metal. (Metal and bones do not mix), you will always come out worse off.

If you learnt biking as an older person, you are 1 million times more careful. You cannot tell how other road users are going to behave. Thank God, so far so good, never had an accident. I only dropped it when i was parking it.

You are more aware of your mortality as an older rider.
TRUE. And this translates to the fact that you dont take the kind of risks that the younger guys do! cool
