Got the PM, I'm already watching those and hoping no one else feels the need to bid on them.

Whole new set of things to learn how to fix. New set of tools, new set of weekend friends to break in. Plus you'll still yearn for a drop-dead reliable ride that will get you to work, church, and the pool hall.


Go drive a Caddy CTS with the V-8, maybe an E500 MBZ. Ask around for a better choice than a gas-swilling-when-it-runs Range Rover. My two sense...

My thoughts on it are, if you are going to sell the 928 for something SUV like, then instead of getting another gas guzzler that costs 5 times as much as a Tahoe, just get the Tahoe. She had a Lexus Rx300 and sold it, had some free cash and a few months later suprised me with wanting a 928.

Now what's new is old again and wants a dog hauler. Hell, I've got a truck for that. Bottom line is we are looking at a house that is much larger than the one we currently have (not small) with an acre of land. I like it, she likes it, and it has room that we can build a shop on so it's kinda a plus, plus for both of us.

I have a hard time letting go of toys :P

What makes it worse, she's on the phone with Sterling, I'm text messaging Ed and Justin. Oh, and doing PM with a few others.

I'm a looser baby.

Don't use a baseball bat. What about paint cracking?

If you really need to, get consecutively larger pipes, and roll the car (somewhat quickly) NOT The object, to get them rolled.

I'm sure you know this, but I am saying that its important to, uh, not suprise the fender with the size if your pipe?

Yup, watched Andrew's vid and decided that was not the best way to do it. I need to talk to the PO of Ang's car and find out what he did. It's the best roll I've seen. Hell, when did the factory decide to start rolling fenders, this looks professional.
