Meh

 

go ahead. ask

 

When's rigid GB end? Healthy discount, beat Amazon?

 

ends next week.

 

PM incoming tonight

 

Yeah it might be a thing of the past. I have a buddy with a LR rak and he says they are great. He's sponsored though. I think @Cascadia Tents had a problem with them but I'm not sure. Maybe Bobby can chime in and tell me if I'm making shit up.

yeah. Not sure if I'll owe or not this year.

I need to do them too. Some advice to everybody from an accountant, use turbo. Don't pay anybody to do them. We aren't any better than Turbo.

Idk how many of you buy enough on Amazon for it to matter, but the amazon prime credit card gives 5% back on amazon purchases if you have prime. I had it before because it gave 3% on amazon and 2% on gas and restaurants.

Now that they upped it to 5%, it is rare that I find a better deal on things like rigids or rotopax than I can find on amazon. Essentially they are always 5% off.

 

Might have a deal on a super cheap 3rd gen with a 2.7 that's got a blown head gasket... 2wd though. Anyone know how compatible my drive train would be to swap from my 91 to the 2000?

 

I've got their credit card. It's how I bought my camera. I also rent and buy most of my books through them, it helps a lot.

I want to pick up another set of Rigids but I'm being patient. I don't need them immediately and I'd rather buy a mount for my awning so I can actually use it. My spring break is coming up soon so I need to knock everything I have sitting around out of the way before I jump into any other projects.

 

Keep forgetting you're still in school. What year/major? Never graduate man. It's no good.

 

Civil Engineering. Junior but a semester behind. Goofed off and didn't take my first semester seriously, is what it is.
Being behind means I have one extra summer so I'm pushing off my internship to next summer, get to keep the bike shop job I've got and make some money for mods/travel

 

Nice. Highly recommend goofing off for at least one semester. I did the same lol.

Good for you man. Good luck with everything. Travel as much as you can. Especially in Europe. Coolest trip I've ever done. My GF and I are trying to decide if we would want to honeymoon in Barcelona, Paris, London, and Rome (3 days in each) or just go to a tropical place for 2 weeks and do nothing but relax.

 

Go buy those gunmetal SR8's!

 

Just out here getting wet

 

Checking to see if they're still in stock has now become part of my daily routine...

My best friend is finishing up grad school in Valencia now. He should be done mid-July and that's when I plan on visiting. Work isn't thrilled but they gave me the go ahead already. I'll fly into Madrid and we'll probably set home base there in an Airbnb. So far the list of places we'll do is Valencia to Ibiza, to Barcelona, go through France doing Bordeaux, Paris, Mont Saint-Michel, the Alps, and the French Riviera. Hopefully then head to Italy for Venice, Florence, Piza, Rome, Naples, Almafi Coast, and Capri. After Capri, fly/train back to Madrid and back home. No clue how long I'll be gone but it's looking like 27+ days already.

I've never been over there and I want to spend as much time as I can as I don't know when I'll get to go back.

If my lady friend and I end up being together long term, I know she'll want the tropical honeymoon. I don't tan much and we look like an inter-racial couple in the summer. Her life in the summer goes from the beach to work to the boat and repeat.

 

I just want a vacation

 

At the end of next week I'll be on 29 fill work days straight without a day off. 9 am to 11 pm

 

This one is going to bankrupt me and I keep thinking about the things I could buy with the money I'm spending

Yikes, that should be illegal

 

It will be so worth it man. I loved my eurotrip with mine and my gfs family. So amazing.
