I dont think so, it looked black and I have just recently had my satelite both virus checked and my super computer which it relays to updated and virus checked. I also ran the test a few times on my palm pilot like reader to make sure

the problem is not your programming or hardware, it's being in an absolutely uncontrolled environment.
Your illuminant, angle of read, angle of illumination, ambient light, interposed objects... none of that's controlled for in your scenario.

I dont think it was the car.  Maybe the gas type...

What type was I supposed to have, cause I don't know what kind of gas was in the tank.  Maybe premium.

Depends really, did you steal the car or buy it, and which direction did you go to get to his house?

Umm, well the car is in my mother's name (because she could get a better interest rate), but is still mostly owned by the bank.

I would drive meanderingly east.

So you stole/borrowed it?  That's a tough one...

I'd say the end result would depend on how many rest areas she slept in along the way.
