Got passed by qksubi on 395s Thursday around 1230. He looked right at me as he went by, but due to the lack of dust on my fairly generic wagon (in addition to the snow-steelies) there was no flash of recognition.

I need a sticker? :?

[MattR]

He's just another stuck up STi Driver anyway...hahaha..

We'll get you some stickers..

[tysonK]

He was driiving the STi or truck or EVO?

My guess would be the Subi...the truck was elsewhere...

[tysonK]

His front bumper must be eating the hell out of middle road snow piles.

STi.

I've been seeing at least one non-stickered silver STi with light tints around on the freeways occasionally, so I wasn't sure who it was until I saw the SECCS decal. His front plate was covered in slush, so that wasn't any help. He had been following me for a couple miles in the #1 lane as we flew by all the 20mph minivans, and then I pulled over to see who it was :wink:

I was the same way until about a month ago when the City of Reno meter maids dropped a $45 ticket on my window.

I was parked in public parking near UNR's main entrance. UNR's money-hungry nazis can't do anything about this little bit of free parking because of the public Evans Park that this particular parking services (I think the master plan calls for all this to go away in the far future, though), so they get the City meter maids to police the he** out of it.

Apparently it is illegal (news to me) to only have one plate, because I got back to my car after work to find a rain-soaked and frozen ticket that appeared to read "improper display". I called the Parking office and assumed the "polite and understanding" tone of voice with the lady manning the desk. She was quite surprised that I had received this ticket, and said that usually they just accompany other infractions. She said that I could just come down to the office and have it inspected and pay $5.

A few days later, after going to the OLD city hall location, I showed up at the old Wells Fargo building downtown that the City's Parking offices seem to have infested (try finding convenient parking there!). The lady at the counter asked me, "So, do you have your other plate on?" and I said, "Yes, would you like to come inspect it?" "No," she replied, "that will be $5."

Talk about a total waste of time!

Good ol' UNR has been slowly eliminating all forms of free parking around the campus, while at the same time moving cheap (~$50) parking out to where most of it is over a mile from the main entrance. Anything remotely near the main entrance costs over $100 (5 years ago these were $35). The ridiculous harrassment performed by UNR and City meter-maid squads in order to make $20 per ticket+ is just nuts. I laugh every time I see UNR clowned in the news.



edit: I kan speel, rite?

At Michigan undergraduate student parking (literally not even on main campus at all) is $60 a year or $106 with after hours (aka certain faculty lots after 3), graduate parking (also not on main campus) is $120 or $166 with after hours. If you can get a pass, since there is a limited number. Faculty parking is $523 a year for the regular pass and $1045 for the one with additional lots. Oh ya no free parking on any of the three campuses AFAIK unless you have a motorcyle.

[sybir]

UCSC was $900 for the dorm lots (10 colleges), and no free parking anywhere.

Remote lots (out in total BFE) are $550.

I was trying to get my car unstuck from the previous night. I would've gotten it out this morning, but as soon as I applied the gas, chain snapped off. But it is out....for now.

That's too bad. If it happens again, call on me -- don't know if I can help, but I do have shovels. Our parking area is still treacherous.

Tell me about it. They did a better job of plowing today, but still is pretty bad around the eastern exit. If you want, you can PM me your ph#.

2) 04 White STi...Hot. Don't know who it was. Dark Windows.
