    SO MUCH SEXY IN ONE PLACE!

    I have two e39 540i s sitting on the side of my house that need some much needed love.

    I have too many damn hobbies though between my "overland prerunner" 4runner, 2017 rzr turbo, crf450, skidoo summit 800 xp 163, girlfriend, stand up jetski and bmws.

    They seriously are some of the most beautiful cars and best driving cars on the road today. So much comfortable in one vehicle its nuts.

    I know, but that was too much work for me, since I'm feeling lazy. Plus I was at work and it's most likely blocked. :bananadead::bored:

    well one I bought from the original owner. 97 auto. runs but gets hot in about 15 min driving. $600 so clean.

    I was gonna use it for parts for my 99 but my 99 m sport has bigger problems than what a parts car can cure. So I'm thinking throw head gaskets in the 97 and make a few Gs

    That was exactly my point. They don't need to be tig welded. They don't need a higher tensile strength than DOM. But there clearly is a market for people that want to say those exact bolded words that you just said. Exactly the same when doing aftermarket Fab like a solid axle swap. Is it necessary to tig weld every inch? Fuck no. Does it look pretty, sure. Do I need an aftermarket housing? Probably not, does it look pretty, sure does.

    Took today off since I worked Saturday :D

    How do you like those tents? Thinking of that or a hard shell for my full rack

    Also, unrelated non-4Runner advice guy's. Would you rather live in a place you love, but make 20% less money or live in a place you dislike but make 20% more.

    I'd like that they are lighter, not sure how much more I'd pay though

    Tent is great. I have a few options on the table coming up, i'll be trialing a hybrid and then making a final decision. If I stick to this style, the adventure series, i'll likely do a hard shell. The main reason is my low profile rack makes taking the cover on and off a little bit more challenging.

    I'd pay money to have less stress at home, as I'm sure most of you would. Depending on the reasoning for dislikes i'd weigh how much additional stress may be incurred due to the new place.

    What is a hybrid? And thanks for the opinion!
    Thanks guys. I'm feeling this. Only downside is potential to grow might be more in the worse place.

    @dtaco06 :thumbsup: Is spot on. You can also go as far as making a spreadsheet with cost to income ratio...
    Making 20% more is only worth it if your able to invest or spend on T4R mods:D

    @T-rev Looks great!
