Maybe your tires want you to change your oil.

It probably means they are low. I've never seen that light go off because tire pressure was too high. Of course mine is always on ... lol (I lack TPMS sensors).

I'm thinking about joining a boat club. So I can go chill on Lake Austin without having to depend on other people for their boat. Plus I REALLY don't want to own one (no place to put it no desire to maintain it).

Thoughts?

there's a couple of those around, seems like a pretty cool deal if you can afford it, kinda' like leasing a car I guess

Yeah pretty much. It's not too bad if you sign like a 5yr agreement but in this town not having a boat means you miss out on cruising the lake. The thing I like about this one is you can get different boats per reservation. So if I want to just go chill on the lake with friends and drink I could get a pontoon boat and if I want to go wake boarding I can get a fast one.

that's pretty sweet, after going out on friend's boats and my dad's down on the coast I was thinking about doing something similar, just not in the budget right now, oh well, maybe someday I'll be baller enough to have a house, rxsomething, and a truck with boat to boot

Damn low profile tires ... they never do. The TPMS lights will come on around 30psi if I remember correctly and that isn't enough to show on the tire.

$5?!!! Dude .. you can get them for like .99 (if you're just trying to get a rough idea). You could also spend $65 and get a spiffy one for the track. I got like 2 spares of the plain gauge.
