Beer is nasty! Takes me forever to drink one and I got to hold it down haha. Now give me some american honey and dr pepper then we're talkin. Of course I rarely drink and if I do drink, just one is all. I can count on one hand how many times I've been drunk haha.

Another non beer drinker here...I am a social drinker though. Thats not always a good thing. I only like light beers.

On another note... I helped my brother work on His Passat. Those Damn cars need special tools for everything. We replaced both CV axles, and they took a tool that I didnt have, 12 tooth star bit/torques. I hate workin on that car. We also fixed the Exhaust at the flex. He bottomed out and put a hole in the oil pan, so I took that off and fixed that too. With the lift and all the tools it took 8 hours. That includes a trip to the parts store. But it was fun! I couldnt imagine doing that without the lift?

Well I'm glad you are a Jack man, cause when you work on the Jetta on the ground using the Jack, it wont bother you as much. Haha

The three tools I know that are special on that are to take off the tires, you need 1. (By the way... when you take them off watch the hell out for falling tires, cause the studs come out with them) Another special tool is needed for the Fuel pump, if you ever replace that. And the 12 tooth star tip to take off the inside of the front axles. I'm sure there's more but thats what I know about. Oh there is more. The outer axle nut is a large allen head.

I know it takes a special tool to compress the rear brake calipers, some type of slide and pull type deal. My brother in law has an r32, basically the same car as mine just a hatch back and awd. It shares a lot of the same parts. He knows the ins and outs. And my neighbor has a shop with a lift. Ive done some excavating for him at no charge so he lets me use his shop if I need to lift something.

I drink most any alcohol that's available. Beer is good and drank a lot in college as most do now. It's perfect for at the pool, tailgating, concerts etc. still enjoy hard liquor also and we had started to transition to things like crown and cola at tailgates after the game and captain Morgan limebite and sprite or coke at the pool. When it first came out we drank that stuff like water.

Ah yes, the college years... Remember when I used to go to south padre island for spring break. Drank almost every day. Now I either drink friday or saturday. I never liked hard liquor tho, don't know why.
