    Installed my new decals last night. Now I've just got to wait for my skids and rear bumper to get here.

    We could have split the load as I went through there as well.

    I bet you were glad that you had those airbags with all that weight. :bananadance:

    Oh yea. I thought the pavers were the thinner 1" thick ones that should've been a lot lighter in weight, also I was told there was quite a few less than there were.

    My estimate would be 30 minutes or less, all depends on the time you leave in the a.m.!

    Hmm okay. Having a hard time finding a place to live. Called up a 3 bedroom place today and told the guy it would be 3 people living there and he said, "no thanks"

    Are you looking to move in now? I thought the rental market improved with the the oil industry drying up and lowering the transplants looking for housing.

    The further into the burbs you get, the less likely you'll be to find someone willing to rent to three young guys.

    Bloomfield, South Side, and Lawrenceville are fun places to live. East Liberty, Morningside, and Stanton Heights are all "up and coming." Dormont is convenient to the T and reasonably priced.

    The issue is pricing. While I can afford a lot more than I'm looking at, I'm trying to save money to buy a house. So finding a 3 bedroom for only $1500 isn't the easiest task lol.

    My brother lives in Bridgeville...it takes him about 10 min to get to the T station in Mt Lebonon, then another 25 min to the US Steel Plaza. If you're going to move south of the city, I'd recommend taking the T instead of the parkway.

    Nice thing about the T is it doesn't really have to deal with much traffic, whereas a bus would be stuck in the same shit you'd have to drive in.

    Yeah @Monster Coma about a half hour. The day of the meet which was a Sunday it only took me about 20 mins. Maybe check up in Mt. Washington. Easy access to downtown. Can take the incline down and walk it for that matter. Driving isn't bad either. I know there's some decent apartments around up there. I don't know about availability right now. But I could ask around. My parents live there .
