Youtubers will post absurdly enticing anything to generate click-volume

Which is money

It’s definitely a scam to get more money from all the traffic to his page
it was probably “sold” to a family member or friend of the guy

Well there is that yet. Tax haven perhaps, if the owner has a second address.

Every ad I've ever seen like this is for a FULL differential. This ad is for only the gear that goes in the diff / housing. It is nearly new. I need a FULL diff assembly but just out of curiosity 1. how much would you folks expect to pay for just the gear? 2. is the X50 gear any different from the turbo gear? Thanks

I have a friend that lives on that street which is the 1000 block of North Crescent Drive. Most of the residents have second, third, fourth and fifth addresses. I'm surprised the likes of me is even allowed to park there.

I lived both in Kentucky and Oklahoma. In both states every year when you are going to register your car they tax you on the book value of the car. On both states I bought cars anc got great deals, then the following year when I went to register again they were taxing My cars at a higher value that I have bought the previous year, I love Texas, car registration is $75 , it really sucks on some occasions these states your car registration per year can be $1,000 or more. That’s in part why we have so many transplants here in Texas. Better than living in Ukraine.
