Hi, the 968 CS can be a lot of fun to drive at legal road speeds, but there's no denying it's pretty slow in comparison and just doesn't have the sound track of either the GT3 or GT4. It's also probably the least comfortable on a bumpy road with the M030 suspension, but it's still a great car and I've no intention of selling it any time soon.
Cheers.

Not enough room to swing a cat! The big boxer takes up almost as much space as the Targa.

Let this be a lesson...I've got to dog-ear some more pages in the catalogs in my bathroom.

Me too....and it makes me pull up real estate listings.

I always think you guys in the US are so lucky. Real estate is cheaper and land is plentiful in populated areas. Always see many large garages. If I want a 3 car garage home in the Toronto area. It's about $3MM at least and if you can find one with a 3 car.

Congrats! Sonic's USA headquarters is about 5 minutes from me. I love stopping in to pick up new tools regularly. Think I almost have the entire line! Great stuff.

It's a tool box full of tools. There is some context a couple of pages back.

Sometimes people "fold" the corner of a page so they can find the page later. The folded corner looks like a floppy dog ear. Book mark holders were invented to try to stop readers from bending the corners of the page

The garage door guy is discouraging me from getting a full view (aluminum frame with glass) door because I am in Massachusetts and those doors have little insulating value. What’s the consensus here?

I plan to spend lots of time in the garage. It will be insulated. Thanks

He's not wrong. You can get insulated glass, but it'll never be as good as a solid door. Although I would think it's more of an issue with hot vs cold weather. I have 3 multipane glass doors in the front that unfortunately get some direct sunlight during the day. Not an issue now, but the summers in here in Texas will really tax my minisplit.

25'ish deep, 13' high. Didn't see the need to go higher (along with added cost). Can easily fit a car on the lift on the top lock with room to spare.
