    As soon as it's back from the repair shop it'll be on Craigslist for approximately MSRP.

    he got lucky he got hung up when he did, can see in the 2nd pic he already started to dig those steps into the ground. Would've been worse if he'd been able to go further, probably just needs a new front bumper now.

    Price gouging at its best. They were charging $135 for parking at the Giants Dodgers games this weekend. In the same neighborhood.

    I bet the Craft service was great during filming. I love some good Mexican food.

    If there's one thing I miss about freelance it was all the craft food services on set. Clients would often haggle like hell to pay as little as possible for the job in general, but when it came to the food they'd usually go all out.

    I liked doing that job even less than having to do the CV axle seal 3 times, but at least it's not a messy one

    apparently disconnecting the outer tie rods makes it easier so might wanna try it that way, I kept mine attached per the vid I watched but I guess that makes it harder

    One thing that makes people happy is good food. You can pay them shit and piss them off but if you put good food in front of them they forget about getting screwed over on pay.

    One thing I miss about being in your neighborhood is Paco's on Foothill and 2nd in Arcadia.
