pops bought a polaris slingshot last week, midlife crisis. they're stupid fun to drive, sits really low, pretty quick, sounds cool. i didn't get to drive it much but he's enamored by it.

lolz wut?


Opinions on most dependable/safe/easy to maintain car or wagon (also open to suggestions) under say $9,000? Would like it to be sort of roomy so would like to stay away from sub compact stuff. She has a 2002 honda accord coupe that's dookie right now and hates it.

Going to get my soon to be bride into something and we have the opportunity to buy outright because of some student loan fiasco with her culinary school. ~6k would be our own money.

Just go with another Rado.

i did a day of labor (standing around on my cellphone) at my buddies work for a dollar over min wage, then doubled my money with  the scrap we loaded up on the clock
3/4ton of heavy iron loaded to the front. really sucks that before gas prices tanked, i woulda got another $100 out of that metal


i totally forgot to stop at my neighbors house, drop the tailgate and load a stove + other bullshit.
next time, tho

the day after that i moved a couch from my neighborhood to 30mi away, then rode the parks out there the rest of the day. $85
the next day i moved a couch didnt make much at $60, 2hr, 60mi job but it was setup by a buisness partner so idont mind
the next day i took my upledge to the skatepark and was gonna do a pallet run on the way home but was already too close to commuter-hour-traffic so i said fuck it and just drove home. those pallets will still be there.
today i reparked my truck across the street and cleaned out my spare iac sensor, ill put the new (old) one later /lazy

.
...
they might let me scrap a lil ranger they have sitting outside their wareehouse too, tranny has been shot for years and recently someone just stole the two left wheels using blocks of wood they left outside, lol
and their forklift just died but im pretty sure theyll be selling that :/

trying to find a cheap campershell and take a trip up the oregon coast. i wonder if i could rent one.

[blueee]

would this fit my ranger?

"Good condition ford camper shell. Measure 60x72. All glass intact. "

[blueee]

page took forever to load cuase shockwave crashed
why the hell is there even shockwave being used on a fucking text forum?

sawzawled the corner of my $17 highsides to fit this window guard i found in a dumpster, stoked

only problem is it wont stay in place without the high sides, need to figure thazt one out :/
also want to chop the top 6 inches off then dot weld it back onto a flat bar of 1/4in steel to lower wind resistance. get it under the cab light.

high sides are lighter than any cage ive ever seen on anyones truck AND can be removed in seconds, holllla
window guard is fucking heavy, like 50lbs heavy, lame.

[DontcallmeKenneth]

Stoked on the pallet setup.

[blueee]

i go to the left and have thoughts of tiresliding that

New exhaust. Tomei Expreme 60R, full titanium pipes, weighs less than 11 pounds and sounds heavenly when bringing it up to redline, then snap, crackle and pops it's way back down to idle.

Mmmmmmm titanium.

Well I managed to get a decent price sorted with insurance so I picked up these refurbished VW wheels for cheap the other day. Just need two new tyres and I'll be good to go. Pretty standard really but they look much better than wheel trims

[Danno]

I'm out the car scene now and just drive a standard Audi A4 Avant. My mates are all pretty involved with it though, here's a couple of theirs:

Always in love with Fairlady's!

Those will look good, but I'm still amazed at your insurance legalities.

[Alex.]

Yeah Tom, those will look a lot better than the steelies and I think even better than the other ones you posted earlier.

I got my roof rack installed today. So much nicer than stuffing the bike in the rear of the car. Rack goes on/off in 5 minutes so that's cool too.
