    Is it possible to accurately guess one's feelings about a certain group of people based on this statement?

    I'm thinking yes.




    In other news, I just got a nibbler on sale at tractor supply for $11. Also an $11 right angle die grinder and a $20 1/2" impact. Score.

    It’s a toss up between Kings and BP51’s! Definitely can’t complain about no tax and free shipping though!

    Marie will probably beat anyone else's price for kings as well.

    I've ridden in and installed both. I think short of a $250-$300 price difference I'd do the kings. When they're dialed they're softer, and having worked on them I find the kings to be higher quality. It's a close toss up though.

    I think it might come down to price, wherever I can get the best deal between Kings and BP51’s will probably earn my business.

    Adventures in Craiglist selling........
    So, I'm trying to sell my daughter's iPhone 6S on CL. I know I'm going to get flakes, lowballers and general riffraff idiots, but this particular "buyer" takes the cake. After much back and forth, we agree on a price. My ad says I'll meet anywhere from Tukwila/Renton/Newcastle/Factoria/Bellevue/Issaquah.

    Buyer then asks if I'll drive to Lynnwood, because they don't have a car, just public transportation. Um, how about no? Then asks about meeting in Seattle. Maybe, depends on where in Seattle, and when I reply. "Seattle" is a big place, let's narrow it down. Decide on a downtown Starbuck's somewhere on Saturday at 5PM. I have a few spots in Seattle I can visit (Glazer's, REI, etc.), so no big deal.

    Buyer texts me on Friday night, breaking that time/place, and asks about Sunday in Seattle.

    Sunday? With a home Seahawks game and NYE? Are you fucking retarded? I said Sunday would only work if between 10AM and 1PM, in Bellevue or Factoria.

    Didn't hear much from this clown until just now. Check this out:
    IMG_0111 1.jpg

    :annoyed:

    Really, wanted to meet at the Space Needle, at 8PM on New Year's Eve? :crazy:

    Yes, I'm clearly an old fuck, texting in full sentences, capitalization and punctuation.... :cool:


    Now this person is texting me back, asking about meeting some other day, really wants to buy the phone, blah blah blah. :frusty:

    At this point, I think I'll just trade it in to AT&T for $200 and call it good.......

    Craigslist, although nice, can be and has been a huge pain in the ass.

    It works 100% of the time 30% of the time

    I don't remember what the spring rate is. They only have one spring rate though. They have a lot of adjustment for the spring preload. When put mine on I left them at the factory preload which is for 200+ pounds of front weight. I didn't have any at the time but I was in the works. I turned the comp and rebound down and by the end of the first week the had settled in and the ride was awesome. Now I've got about 250#'s on the cab and about 8k miles on the BP's I couldn't be happier with them. My only complaint is adjusting the comp and rebound. You pretty much have to stick your head and shoulders in the wheel well to do it.
