Yikes that doesn't look fun.

 

Ouch Seth

 

Shameless is a flipping excellent show.

 

Yup in fucking pissed. No ones fault but my own, that's what happens when you're in a rush, trying to drive, have 1000000 things running through your head and on a conference call at the same time.

 

Thanks I'll be in touch. I think tonight's out for pulling it apart, hopefully I'll have it pulled apart tomorrow night.

 

GL and let me know

 

Sounds like it's time to lift, you know since you're already replacing the UCA...

 

What he said ^^

I have a friend with stock uppers off his 07 FJ that I'm sure he'd sell. I just took em off a few weekends ago when I lifted his truck

 

I do have 5100s all around already. Would be easy to throw lift springs on for sure...

But I was trying to keep it stockish

 

My wife has a 2006 tC she bought new. I'm not the biggest fan of it anymore because I can't find a good way to get comfortable, but it's been a pretty solid car since she's had it. It's at the point right now that it's just starting to get expensive with repairs, so I think we'll be selling it in the fall. With the glass roof it's nice to drive around in the summer. It was the perfect car for her when she bought it after graduating college. I can't fault that.

I walked out of Planet Subaru when the salesman was mid-sentence shopping for my Mom's Forester. She presented the window sticker and told me that the MSRP was what they paid for the vehicle, and anything above it would be the dealer's profit, what would I like to pay. She then made a laughable offer for my Mom's Rogue saying all cars have issues. It was a 2012 with 18,000 miles...what issues? There's more than one dealer out there, I don't have time for games and BS. I bought my Tacoma through Truecar, showed up and signed the papers. My Mom's Forester was a TrueCar price match.

I am waiting for it to show up On-Demand. I have the world's most pathetic cable package, so I don't have FX. I've been docu-series crazy lately. Granted this is a fictional version, but still it's similar. After watching Making a Murderer, I'm glued to anything legal.

The FR-S and WRX are apples and oranges. I had a chance a few summers ago to Auto-X a FR-S and a Focus ST. The ST isn't a WRX, but it's a similar type car and they were apples and oranges. The FR-S was definitely slow, and momentum was your friend. It was super tight and small, and very go-kart like. The ST (and WRX by comparison) was much more a brutish car, relying on power to get you around the track.

The FR-S is set up more neutral than the BRZ, which is set up to understeer more. If they made one with a targa top, I'd probably be trading my STi. I'm on a quest for something interesting with a targa or T-Tops lately. Camarobird is out as is C5 Vettes. Part of me would love to do a C4, but some days I love em, some days I hate em. I'm eyeing the 300ZX TT, but I don't know anyone with one, and I'd love to get some seat time in one first.

Hey, in my eyes if it's not a bro-truck, it's stock-ish. I still consider mine stock-ish.

 

I bought mine just before I graduated college as well. The glass roof was one of the reasons I bought it. I was picking between the new tC and a used SI for the same price. Mine is at about 90K miles now and no major issues, I plan on keeping it as long as I can. Between getting married next year and the future wife itching for a kid I'm probably going to have to get a more family friendly daily driver at some point.

 

Morning

 

Morning.

 

Morning all.

 

3-5" of snow coming down here tomorrow

 

Have this older paranoid woman iv been dealing with every single night at work. She believes people are in her walls blah blah the whole 9 yards. Got elder services to section her for mental health they returned her in a day untreated. Calls again last night show up there is a 40lb raccoon scaling her gutter. It sees me then drops to the ground and Runs into a hole under her trailer... My first thought "Holy Shit she's not actually crazy!!" It's just a raccoon.

Tell her what I saw and that she should call an exterminator there are raccoons living under your house that's the noises in her walls she's been hearing. Nope she says " I called because my dead sister won't stop using my crockpot..."

 

DAYUM!!!!!!!!!!! That's some serious s**t right there. What do you do for work if you don't mind me asking?

 

Ghost whisperer, obviously.

 

Police officer. Not the weirdest thing iv delt with mental health wise, it was just one of those ones that came out of left field given her only history had been paranoia of strangers trying to break in and people in her walls.
