I'm really a boil-n-bag guy anyway.

That's your pennance for making the negative ricer comment after being politely asked not to

But I won't put on the buzzy muffler because it annoys me. I don't need a subwoofer because my old ears can't tell the difference any more and I don't need to feel the bass, and neon under the car really doesn't light up the road where I need it lit.
I call the buzzy mufflers a "fart can" and also find them very annoying.
I would like to have a small subwoofer - the stock speakers don't put out much bass.
Neon under the car is a dumb idea IMO, but I have seen halogen fog lights mounted underneath Jeeps - for being better able to see the rocks and obstacles when wheeling at night!

Couldn't have said it better myself, thanks!
