New England B.S. Thread

They're there...mostly,and they are small.
The large signs say no commercial vehicles.

40 years ago, they would nail you for driving a pickup on that road.

 

Ahh.. The Merit. Traveled it a good amount. Best part is you have 2 choices. 40Mph and traffic in the right lane. Or 90 MPH in the left lane.

 

Yeah we were convoying down to Rausch and I was in the front with Erik right behind me and the cop flew up in the other lane and squeezed right in between us. I was like what am I doing wrong? Then I turned down the radio to hear him yelling over the bullhorn! Man, I thought that guy was gonna have an aneurysm. He must have been in a hurry because he didn't pull me over.

 

I just got off at the next exit like I was politely told from the officer and we went back roads to get to 95. LOL

 

They're quick to shut you off on out of state activity. Which I guess is good and bad

 

To much for me for what it is . Good luck

 

What year is this thing?

 

They didn't do that for my wife. Her card info was stolen and was being used in some state like Iowa and RI at the same time. They only flagged it due to lack of funds.

 

09

 

Wow.
Good luck with the sale, then. Not sure what the market's like in MA, but around here that's an $8-10k car.

 

I've been in the business for 8 years and worked for Autotrader and kbb, I'm not worried about getting what I need for it

 

Okey Dokey.
No offense intended. Like I said, I don't know the market in Mass, just that $13k for that car is pretty steep for my area.

For instance
Private sales:
http://maine.craigslist.org/cto/5092667024.html $6495
http://maine.craigslist.org/cto/5062113131.html $7895

Dealership:
http://maine.craigslist.org/ctd/5080156068.html $8995
http://maine.craigslist.org/ctd/5076830903.html $10990 (and this dealership has a rep for steep prices)
http://maine.craigslist.org/ctd/5070623600.html $9344

Hence my assessment. Nothing personal

 

All pro sliders arrived today.

 

Mines the si with nav

 

Sweet!
What'cha gonna paint 'em with?

Ohhhhh...
I didn't realize it was the SI; I thought it was the regular Civic. Missed that part, I guess. That makes more sense, then.

 

Just rattle can primer/flat black paint like my last set. Probably hit the leading faces with rattle can under coating for a little extra protection

 

anyone know of any places to take the truck out in the plymouth area? just looking to explore a bit

 

Only legal place I know is deluxbury beach if you have an oversand permit and if the stupid piping plovers aren't fornicating. Check out south shore wheelers, they probably have a better idea.

 

I was in 'the bury's'

I had my wife look it, only way I knew what I did wrong. A little signage would probably kill their money maker.

I was in the 90 mph left lane, truck doesn't even feel that pop up behind it.

 

Nice sliders!
I have the PureFJ ones.
After degreasing, I rattlecanned 4 coats of self etching primer. 4-5 coats of semi-gloss black over that.
I put some 3M non-skid strips on top for traction.
I learned to step over them gettin out when wearing shorts. That gritty tape leaves a mark.
